Looking for advice for Links.com


Hi guys,

I am doing very well with the good keywords "TV Links" and "Free TV Links" on Links.com. Also doing well with other key words, but these are the best and where I want to focus.

I am looking for some advice, on how to translate these SERPs into higher quality traffic and revenue generation.

Thanks for any advice that you can provide.

Rich

I suggest that you try to optimize the ads in your site. You can have better ad placement and also try different ad units to see which one performs the best.

One more thing: I saw some small problems in your site design. Like: the blog link in top menu, portion of this link button is above this content:

Hi angilina,

Thanks for the advise. I have tried different ad units, but it is probably worth another look.

I think my basic problem is content. I have to come up with a different way of attracting and holding on to users.

Appreciate your taking the time to answer.

Great domain. I'd have many ideas for it.

As non english native speaker I'm having a bit of trouble seeing why people look for "tv links", but let me try to give some feedback anyway just by looking at the numbers.

I don't see you rank too well for these keywords (not in top5), and the problem is twofold
- for AdSense, these are low paying keywords (€0.21 for tv links and worse for free .
- the sites that rank well are streaming video sites. if you want to get into that area, good luck to you, your lawyer, and your bank.

On your site, the content I see are game reviews. Is this the intended content for someone looking for tv links? Based on the other search results, it looks off (and maybe with quality traffic you indicate a high bounce rate).

With your current niche of tv links (free video streaming), I would try to find a well matching affiliate program (movie downloads, streaming subscriptions) and focus on building converting landing pages.

The same with games reviews, as PPC is notoriously low paying there.

For both topics, it would pay off to have a directory on the site. You should be able to get a CTR of 5-10% on directory traffic (we have custom directories, PM for an example).

HTH.
