How to Find the Highest Paying Keywords for Pay

1. Understand the context.Advertisers pay to have ads placed on websites. For instance, if you look around any eHow article, you'll see ads all over the place. Most of these are Google Adsense ads, though other companies, such as Vibrant, also place ads at eHow.The ads are context-relevant. That is, they are related to the topic of the eHow article (this article, for instance, will probably carry ads for pay per click advertising, search engine optimization, keyword lists, and so on).Advertisers get their ads placed by bidding on keywords -- the main search terms people use to find a website. The more popular a keyword, the more an advertiser pays.The advertiser pays a fee when a visitor to the site (someone like you) clicks on an ad. The website owner gets to keep some of the money paid. The more popular a keyword, the more money they'll get. Some keywords pay only pennies, but others may pay several dollars for each click.The Resources section has more details about how pay-per-click (PPC) advertising works.
2. Find high-paying keywords.Google Adsense is far and away the biggest PPC network on the web. But Google does not make public the amounts paid for PPC ads, so it's difficult to find out the highest-paying keywords. If you want to attract high-paying ads to your site, you'll need to find information elsewhere.Fortunately, one of the smaller PPC advertising companies does make its top ranked keywords list easily available. 7Search.com posts a list of its 100 Top Paying Keywords.

3. Check Often.The list changes frequently, and responds to seasonal events, news stories, popular culture, and the like. However, a large majority of the high paying keywords are for drugs, and for online gambling.
