niche marketing, long tail keywords, high paying keywords
The Great Experiment is now about 10 days along and I have some results to report.
Three of my new blogs just got indexed yesterday, all appearing on the second page of Google for their respective long tail keywords. Not a bad place to make their debute.
They all have to do with personal injury lawyers. Yes I know you probably think I am a low life for putting up blogs on this topic, but the fact remains that good people sometime these services, and these lawyers pay more for their Adword ads than a lot of other service businesses.
The three new blogs are:
- http://newjerseymalpracticelawyers.blogspot.com/
- http://newyorkaccidentlawyers.blogspot.com/
- http://personalinjurylawyerssandiego.blogspot.com/
Now I could have just made one blog about personal injury lawyers, medical malpractice lawyers or accident lawyers. But my trusty Micro Niche Finder showed me that those terms were too broad and had too much competition.
On the other hand, Micro Niche Finder also showed me that New Jersey, San Diego and New York were the best keywords to use.
Now compare these three with another blog I started around the same time that is not doing as well. Do It Yourself Home Improvement was clearly too broad a topic. I should have (and will) break that topic into kitchen remodeling, cabinet making, bathroom remodeling, landscaping, etc.
I have already learned that a good topic is a better topic if I focus on several long tail keywords. My Micro Niche Finder showed me to break "lawyers" into three small niches and keywords. But I didn't consider that option with the do it yourself remodeling idea. Live and learn.
Something else. I have not used original content for any of these blogs so far. All of them came from ezinearticles.com, yet I suffered no penalty for the so called "duplicate content" slap.
My belief is that if I target a small enough niche, use good SEO techniques and keep adding content, the duplicate content boogy man will not hide in my closet at night.
I am also setting up Google alerts on each of my keywords so I can receive email notices when something new hits the web on these niches.
That's all for today. I'll keep you informed.
