These factors that I have discussed can be a lot to swallow at first. But I wanted to give you a quick list of some general rules that I use to decide whether or not to target a keyword.
- Target keywords where not all the results are using the exact keyword in the title.
- At least 2 of the top 10 results have less than 10 links to the resulting page (0 links preferred)
- At least 2 of the results with less than 10 backlinks also have a PageRank of 0. Meaning 2 results need to have a PR of zero AND have less than 10 links.
- Target results with weak types of sites (article directories, forums, etc.).
- Target results where ranking pages are NOT root domains.
So, if you can find a keyword where the competitors don’t really use the keyword well in the title, 2 results have 0 backlinks to the Page AND have a PageRank of zero – then you are MONEY! Yes, this is an ideal and can be very difficult to find – but it is possible. I always look for the ideal, but often settle for something with just a little more competition if I need to. I can tell you that my highest earning sites met the 5 bullet points that I mentioned above. So, its very possible to find keywords that meet this strict criteria. And if you are patient in doing your keyword research and find these really low competition keywords – you significantly increase your chances of making good money with niche websites.
