I would like to first start off with what exactly a keyword is since there are surprisingly, still people who do not know. Whenever you go to a search engine and type in a word or phrase, this is a keyword.

Now there are two ways for your site to be found with a keyword.

The first to be found with a keyword is if you have that keyword in the title or text of a page. If that keyword is in the title, you have a better chance of appearing higher in the results of that search.

The second way is what’s known in SEO (Search Engine Optimization) as anchor text. This is important as it helps the search engines align a set of keywords with your website’s URL. How this is done is simple. When you leave a comment on another blog, you enter your website URL and a name. If your website is about Martial Arts, then why not use a name like The Martial Artist. This way if someone type in Martial Art in the search engine it will align with your URL.

You need to be careful with this as too many anchor texts may end up burying your website. So from time to time change your keywords so that you can better optimize the fact that some may not always type in you exact keyword. You can easily have several hundred links using one keyword phrase as the anchor text and several hundred more using different variations on keywords and phrases.

To have a successful website there are some important parts that you must always have.

First off, you have to know the purpose of your website. Making money is not a purpose, it is the end means, the purpose is how you get your visitors to that end mean.

What purpose does your website have to your visitors? This is important, because you have to put the visitors first and you pocket last. If the visitors are always first, then you will always meet you end mean of making money.

You had to hold the hand of your visitors. They are not just going to show up and see a buy now link and push it. You have to lead them into purchasing whatever you are selling. Add useful and interesting article on that particular item. Add pictures and descriptions maybe even an online demo. You must do what ever it takes to make your visitors feel like they are a friend to the site. This makes them more prone to buying.

You need a way to capture your visitors. I do not mean a bug that will load your page every time they open their browser. You will never sell anything this way and in some countries if caught you can spend some time in jail for it.

Create a way to get names and email addresses. By doing this you can make a more personal approach. Give them a free e-book on your product or service. People love free stuff and are always willing to give away their emails as long as you are not going to sell them to a “third party.”

Never bulk mail your website’s visitors with anything that could be considered as SPAM. No newsletter neither as they will just get deleted. If you got their email by giving them and e-book, send them an email asking if they enjoyed the book. Make it personal. Remember that you have to put the visitor before your wallet. When you email them and ask them how they liked the book, they may just return and see what they missed, or if the never actually read the e-book, they may return to download it again to see why you contacted them

One of the first and foremost parts of starting any website to make a profit is choosing a niche that you can monetize. One of the first places you should visit is of course Commission Junction, where you can view a full list of advertisers and see what Earnings Per Click (EPC) those advertisers are paying.

You can also visit Overture Bids to see what the biggest bids are currently in the advertising market; this will allow you to find a high paying niche. Lastly, you will want to see what the hot items that people are searching for.

You need to see if your possible choice will have a lot of competition. To do this, simply type in your niche’s keywords into the search engine and see how many result come back. Not all of them will be competition so you can figure this out by simply multiplying the number of found results by .75 (75%) and these will be the amount of competition you will have in that niche. If it is too high, then you need to start back at the beginning.

Use your head. Obviously the electronics and computer markets are highly competitive; where as consumable items are always consumed and replaced.

Finally you will have to guess. Will this niche still be popular in 6 months or is it only hot right now because of a celebrity or television show. Always remember to use your head when making this decision.
