    If it's untaken, I think there's a strong chance the domains wouldn't be money-makers. But also, there's really no way of knowing how fast you'd be able to rank the sites.

    As far as monetization, CPM ads might make you some money if you can get enough traffic.

      their targeted micro niches, is that why you doubt the domain names?

        It's just that in my experience, every time there's an opportunity that looks like it's that wide open and nobody has taken it, it's always for a good reason. Usually that reason is that it's very hard to monetize.

        But I'm not necessarily saying you shouldn't pursue it. If you can find a good way to monetize, then it's just a question of whether or not you'll rank.

          whether or not ill rank.....would you suggest i use paid methods?

          i was thinking, i make it based on a large market and then advertise for those small keywords...is this something you would consider?

      Yea I agree you really have to think of the market intent. Is the market intent to buy or to just gobble up free information and walk away in either case if its free info that they are looking for you might be able to market with adsense as they are likely to click the adsense links to get more free info.

    You should still check if the keywords searchers are looking to buy something or they are just looking for information. If they are just looking for information, they may not be that profitable. For example, what is Mac book is not as profitable as Mac book review

      its basically information but the topic is both hereditary and controversial and its something you have to be into in order to search for it anyways.

    Use paid traffic instead of seo!
    Its faster, more traffic and can be even higher targeted into the sales process of your visitor along with more dependable .

    Free traffic is not free do not let the name fool you..
    It's okay to set optimize your site for seo factors but with all the constant changes you will not be in the game long even if you ever get in it with seo.

    I have had at one time 7 sites all on the first pages for all of there keywords and one by one they just kept updating and updating until a $11,000 monthly business got too $0.
    That is when I started to do media buys and life is a lot sweeter when you are not depending on someone else.
    Best of luck

    It kind of sounds like you've been following an IM program that might be somewhat outdated. Exact match domains are worthless for SEO anymore, and the search volume that an SEO tool might report for a given keyword is such a small part of the overall equation that it's kind of worthless too.

    Well the problem is, one of the reasons nobody seems to be competing with those keywords could be that people searching for those phrases aren't anywhere near the "buying stage". They may just be browsing around because they think it's interesting or something, in which case the chances of actually selling them anything are slim to none.

    I'd check to see if there's any associated products you can try to sell. If there's a decent amount, then that's a good sign because those products wouldn't exist if there wasn't money to be made in the niche as a whole.

    If there are associated products you can be an affiliate for within that niche, what I'd suggest next is to find websites in that market and try to learn what keywords they're using to get traffic. Chances are, they've been doing this for a while and they're using what works. So if they're not using certain keywords in that niche, it's probably a sign to stay away from those because they apparently don't produce results.

    As far as using paid traffic, I'd suggest holding off as it'd be too much of a risk. What you need to do is first drive free traffic once you find something that has a high chance of success. Once that traffic starts producing results, you can move on to paid traffic and get results that much faster.

    I would invest in Market Samurai, this will help you in your research of keywords, amount of traffic, SEO competition for these keywords and how to monetize. A great tool to have to research possible future purchases and ways to generate revenue.

    You can't go by just the number of searches per month / traffic. You need to know what the traffic is about and how best you can get in and monetize if at all possible. Not a quick process...especially if the keywords you are researching are competitive.
