Keyword research is an essential step we need to do properly in order to make money with Google Adsense for our blog. Choosing the right keywords will influence both the number of traffic to our blog and how Google Adsense assigns ads to us.
Before we go any further, we need to understand the definition of keyword phrase. Keyword phrase is the word or phrase that people will enter in the search engine to find information. For example, if I wish to find the information about breast cancer treatment, I might type “how to treat breast cancer” in the search engine. Therefore, after choosing a suitable and profitable niche, we still need to understand the keyword phrase that people will probably use to find the information about our blog niche.
3 Effective Criteria of Keyword Research
1. Large Number of Search
The first criteria that we need to follow when doing the keyword research is there is large number of search for the keyword phrase. We need to target the keyword phrases that promise the traffic to our blog.
2. Profitable
The second criteria of keyword research is the profit potential of the keyword phrase. We must target the keyword phrase that will really bring us money but not only traffic.
3. Low Competition
Last but not least, we have to choose a keyword phrase that is not too competitive in used. If there are lots of other websites using the same keyword phrase, we should choose another keyword phrase. It is too difficult for a new website like us to appear on the first page of search engine if the targeted keyword phrase is too competitive.
Importance of Keyword Research
Why it is so important for doing the effective keyword research? If we use the correct and right keyword phrase, our blog or website will have a better chance to be appeared on the first page of search engine. We can easily to drive a large traffic and make a big money from a targeted keyword phrase.
Balancing the 3 Criteria in Keyword Research
In order to make money with Google Adsense, we need to choose a keyword phrase that is:
i. Driving more than 100 searches per day
ii. Cost per Click (CPC) is more than $2
iii. Less than 500,000 competitors
In conclusion, it is important that we choose the right keywords but not just the ones that give us a good rank in search engine. We need to balance the 3 criteria when doing the keyword research. This is important for us to build a blog for Google Adsense. So, what tool that we need to do the keyword research?

Hi ZXT! I have been blogging for 5 months time. During these time, I did a lot of study and reading about the Google Adsense. I got some knowledge about it but i’m still learning. Frankly, I’m not doing very well for Google Adsense currently. Yet, I believe that Google Adsense will be my first stream of income during my student life in a short future.
Yes, you are absolutely right, this three criteria are important to consider.
