Unfortunately the turnaround on applying to some of the programs and actually being accepted is quite a long time in terms of the internet, but this is to be accepted when dealing with financial institutes, my blog has been rejected a few times but hopefully with some content it will be accepeted soon. With only one post there isnt much oppurtunity to gather much search engine traffic and the only way feasible is to target keywords with a ppc campaign.
Unfortunately a l0t of the programs that you deal with on commission junction and similar sites have people operating paid search programs through cpc/ppc and they dont allow you to promote on certain keywords and this just makes your job harder but luckily enough, if you know what your doing it will be easy enough.
But once i do get a few more programs i will start to build hardlinks and submit the blog to more places and hopefully the big bucks adsense and commision from sales will be coming my way.
This was just a short update in case you where wondering why i had not posted about the uk finance blog.

For key words targetting with adsense am going to post a list i found of the topkeywords and the average payout with them! I use this list when I am building websites to target which websites will make me money. From domain names to mortgage advice to gambling, these are the ones that pay the most, unfortunately google wont pay out these amounts on new sites until you reach a certain level!
Usually i create the domain or sub domain for the blog or site i am using the term im targetting then create a few posts and run adsense over the top of it. An example would be- domain name- I would create domain-name.follor.com then any related terms would be in the title of the site and post titles.

When i was working in adult and targeting many different search terms i used sub domains! I was usually building sites to forget about, what i mean i would spend a couple of hours developing a website or setting up a blog with some posts then go of and promote the site, that would be it, i would never update.
This is a technique employed by a lot of people making their income online, but a lot of these guys go and buy and endless amount of domains, i buy one, host it on a shared hosting account with unlimited sub domains. I then would do the same on a different shared hosting account elsewhere which then let me build back links between similar sites.
Heres how I discovered keywords and targeted the search terms.
- To start with i would go brainstorm the keywords i was targeting- webmaster
- To help with this i used a tool overture but i cant seem to find it any more but google luckily enough has its own version which is similar- Google keyword tool
- I then would use this tool to check which keyword or search term got the most terms.
- Taking this information i would google it and see what the competition was like, if there was none, great! But if the search results where overloaded with pages targeted to this search term it would make it difficult but i would quit.
- I would create my sub domain and then get to work.
- If i was going to blog on this site i would upload wordpress and place the search term in the page title and create the categories with the search term in them-
Say skydiving was my search term
- The domain would read something like http://skydiving.follor.com
- The categories that my posts on the blog fell into would be skydiving pics, skydiving stories, skydiving videos, skydiving info and so on
- Also i would include all this in the title “Skydiving pics, info, videos and stories”
- The title of each post would have skydiving in it, an example would be “Skydiving in Ireland” which would fit into all categories
- The final trick is to make sure you have permalinks enable in the wordpress settings to include the name in the URL
Thats it for today, hopefully i have inspired you to how to target keywords and search terms cheaply without having to buy a lot of domains, and by the way i have no interest in skydiving, the term was the first thing that popped into my head while writing this post.
