This year I’m taking part in the Thirty Day Challenge again. The most valuable thing I’ve been able to learn is about saving time doing keyword research. Normally I would’ve used things like the Google Adwords Keyword Tool and then a number of others. But with Market Samurai, it cuts that time to about 5%. This tool combines all the tools I used previously, but it puts it into a nice package that saves you a lot of time.
I was able to research niche keywords and find 18 micro niches that I can use to make money online. To first put everything to test I chose two of them and got websites up and running for them. 2 day s later they were being indexed by Google, and 2 days after that I check up to see if any people had reached the sites.
Was I surprised! I knew keyword research can make all the difference to a website, but I forgot how well it can really work.
In the first 2 days I had 680 visits to my one website, all coming to me from search engines. The other one had gotten about 40.
I checked the stats again this morning and it’s averaging at about 329 visits per day for the one website and 124 visits per day for the other one. This is good for a 1 page website.
So before you get your website up and running, spend a few hours to work out what keywords you are going to target, because it can mean the difference between having a bad or an awesome website! You want to target keywords that enough people are searching for, but with not too much competition in terms of other websites people reach with those keywords.
124-329 visits a day speaks for itself. Amazing how much time we spend building products first and THEN finding markets when it should so obviously be done the other way around!
