@OnlineDomainShop Haha fair enough, I'm not trying to hound you on this or anything. I don't see any commercial intent with any of the "how has" questions, I think that'll be the biggest challenge you face. This was for you to develop, right?
If I may offer a bit more unsolicited advice... I would strongly encourage you, if you're going to do a tiny niche with only a handful of keywords that have low volume to choose from, make sure the keywords have some type of commercial intent behind them. Someone typing "
How has technology helped us" isn't looking to buy new headphones or anything else the same way someone searching "How much do airpods cost?" is, that's what I was trying to highlight when comparing them.
I don't think the issue with HowHas is that there are 0 keywords, I think the issue is that the keywords that exist aren't really worth ranking for. You can put in all the effort to develop it, but for what? The 3 people a day that search "how has hip hop changed"? Even at that, you're going up against some super-powerful domains, for something with super-low reward.
Just wanna toss out some numbers, then I'll leave you alone :P
- Even if you get
all of the traffic for
all of the "how has" keywords, that's really not that many people each day. Even "how has your day been" only has about 15 people searching for it per day.
- There's probably not a lot of advertisers spending a lot on these keywords, so maybe you'll get what.. $1 or $2 rpm? Maaaybe $3? Let's say $10 per 1000 visitors just to be super generous.
- So if you wanted to make $10 a month on this site, you'd need about 33 visitors per day. Let's say you rank #1 for "how has your day been", that brings you about 15 per day assuming every single person searching for it clicks over to your site. Then you get another 3 per day for "how has hip hop changed" if you manage to outrank the daily beast, redbull.com, etc...
- It takes earning a hugely inflated RPM of $10 on a bunch of keywords that don't have commercial intent... and it takes ranking #1 for basically all of the "how has..." keywords that get 70-480 volume per month, AND getting all of the traffic from them everyday to click your site in the search results.... just to get to $10 a month.
It's going to be an uphill battle, my friend.
PS - I'm not saying $10 can't be a worthwhile sum of money to chase, I'm just saying if you're going to go through all of that effort and you need several nearly-impossible things to happen just to get to $10, there are much better niches to target.
