There's no way around it - keyword research is the

foundation of every good affiliate marketing business. It

doesn't matter if you're an organic search guru or a PPC

baron, you'd better be able to pinpoint the keywords that

matter and become competitive for them as fast as

possible.

It can be easy though to miss the important keywords. My

favorite research tool for that is AffiloTools. Without it,

I would be completely lost.

I'm going to go through with you today my tips for finding

the money-magnet keywords that you - and your competitors -

have missed!

My Keyword Research Technique

I like to get started in the AffiloTool's keyword tool - it's

easy to use and it is very accurate. You can enter multiple

terms, but for now, just one will do. I'll use "lose weight" as

an example. The top level of search results will be terms that

use the basic term, and will include things like:

* How to lose weight * Lose weight fast * Lose belly

weight

These terms are all directly related to the term and

give you more options to build your list. Look for the

Global Monthly Search Volume to get an idea of how many

searches this term gets each month.

Unless you're developing a PPC campaign, ignore any

local search volume data that Google gives you. Also

ignore the competition data as this relates to PPC advertising.

You just want to know how many people are searching.

Best Kinds of Keywords

Okay, so now you have a good general idea of what

keywords you'll be using. What about the actual terms you

should be targeting. I have a small listing of terms I

like to use as often as possible. How you optimize will

depend on your strategy, but if you're doing PPC, you

pretty much have to have lists for these particular terms:

* Author Names - If you're promoting info products on

weight loss products, you can find keywords related to the

authors of those info products. Check your affiliate

program's rules to determine if you're allowed to do this,

but most vendors will be perfectly happy to let you. More

commissions for you means more profits for them.

* Product Names - Along the same lines, product names

are highly successful conversion tools. Most people, when

searching for a specific product name, are looking for

reviews, or final justification before a purchase. Volume

is lower, but you're getting leads that are much more

likely to convert.

* Long Tails - Finally, if you're doing PPC or creating

an authority site, using long tail keywords can really

boost your performance. For example, if you're writing

about dog training, you can add the dog breeds to

beginning of each keyword - instantly creating 200

longtails for each base keyword you have.

For example, someone might search for "fix golden

retriever aggression" and someone else might search for

"fix poodle aggression". Those are both specific longtails

and can be extended as much as is needed to get your

traffic.

Keywords are the currency of any good affiliate

marketer. You want traffic? You need to find the words

people are searching for and become competitive for them.

So, before you ever start marketing any of your new niche

products, spend some time researching, building lists, and

analysing the keywords.

With tool like AffiloTools, check to make sure there is volume,

and always check your competitors to see what they're optimized

for If you do it right, you should be able to create a huge list

of potential gold keywords.

My favourite research tool is AffiloTools, and I

highly recommend it.

AffiloTools is a complete package that gives you link

building tools, tools that let you spy on your competitors,

rank checking software and so much more. Plus, it includes

extra bonuses that you'll have to see for yourself!

Kind Regards,

Marc
