adsense technical help question campaign

Hello. I am new and I am trying to learn about building an adsense site and making money with it.

I found this 2 word keyword that gets only 46 exact global searches per month. The approximate cpc is $13.56. What does that mean exactly? Does that mean that after I built my site and I put the adsense ads on my site I will make $13.56 per click?

Also I went to market samurai and when I put my keyword and I click on seo competition the number 1 position shows this starts:
pr4 blp 2102 yahoo no dmoz no title Y url N bleg 5 desc N head N

so what do you think? I know is only about 46 exact searches per month for this 2 word keyword but if the average click is $13.56 and I can rank easily on page 1 position 1, then is this a good campaign to build an adsense site?

Also I forgot to mention that the competition for this keyword within "quotation marks" in google is 23,900

Thank you for your help

I need an adsense for beginners guide, lol

    Hi, would suggest you to read these threads:

    About your keyword: it is good that your keywords cpc is $13.56, though it receives almost zero traffic, and it does not mean that you'll get $13.56 per one click, it only means that someone is paying $13.56 for his ad in 1# position for that keyword, you can get much lower than that.

    I would not suggest you to go for keyword having less than 2000 exact monthly searches, and cpc lower than $0.3 (can see from google keywords tool).

      Don't look at the cpc amount it means squat.

      If you have no traffic at 46 searchs your wasting your time unless you go reeeeeeeealllyyy longtail and create 1000 articles.

      Your keyword must have advertisers willing to pay for them in adwords.

      Type your kw in google and if you see adwords ads on the far right it's a start.

      $13.56 per click does not mean you get that per click.

      Googles takes about fidy percent (50%) of that.

      Then if your EPC sucks you'll get even less money.

      Find a in-between where you can get enough traffic and a decent cpc with
      realistic probability of ranking in position#1 within 3 months based on your competition strength.

      The talk of the town is 1000 exact match searches with a CPC $1 with
      no EMD's in the top 10 of page 1 of the kw your targeting.

      He's got some great info.

      Hope this helps dude

    I agree on not paying too much attention to the CPC as whilst the top bid is $13.56 if the next bidder down is only prepared to pay 10c then guess what? The guy who is prepared to pay $13.56 will only pay 1c more e.g. 11c. Thus you could build a site targeting a $13.56 click and find you only get paid half of 11c, and all that for only chasing 46 clicks per month. As you can see it's not the right market to waste time on. Many people do and then earn $0 from adsense and give up as a result.
