Using PLR Articles – Create a niche website
Last post about using PLR articles I went through how I can use them for creating a new list building system. Today I’ll start (yes just start because it will be a multi-part series) on how I use them to create niche sites.
Now I belong to Expert Content Monthly and get 12 topics each month with about 25 articles on each topic. The first thing I do is start running each topic through Market Samurai to find out which ones look to be the most profitable.
Now you can do this without buying software and I went over how to do that in EZ Keyword Research but the time savings if you are doing this regularly make the purchase of quality software a no brainer.
For me I will usually do no more than 3 of the 12 and look for the topics that are generating the highest ad words cost at least initially.
Once I find a high paying topic the next step is to find 6- 8 keywords that are mid range competitive but the most profitable at least from the aspect what advertisers are willing to spend.
Each of those 6 – 8 keywords I will drill down further looking for profitable phrases with good traffic and low competition. If I can’t find long tail words that are relatively easy to rank for I will go to a different topic.
If I can find them I build my keyword tree. The keyword tree will look like this.
Then go look for a keyword rich domain on my topic. This is just the first step and will get into step 2 next time. Any questions or improvements you can suggest just leave a comment.

Hey Mike,
I have not done any “real” niche marketing but plan to in 2010 so I look forward to the rest of your series. I’ve heard you talk about Market Samurai before, i’ll think it’s time to invest a little more in my business and pick this one up
Luca Di Nicola´s last blog ..So Many Deals – So Little Time
I really like the start of this series. Could be I will have to follow along and see how it is done. I agree that Market Samurai is a worthwhile piece of software. Definitely will save you some time with the research. Looking forward to the next post.

THs is a topic near & dear to my heart, Mike, since I not only run a PLR aricles site but also sell the software to create sites from articles automatically. It’s important to note that with a membership site the topics are already usually keyword-researched to ensure it’s a profitable niche, but when a person is buying a set of PLR aricles on one topic they should do the keyword research BEFORE the purchase – most writers aren’t marketers and will write on any topic, whereas as a marketer you only want to buy articles that apply to a potentially-profitable niche.

I’m looking forward to the rest of this series. I have a few niche sites up that are basically sitting there with minimal results. I like your approach to keyword research.

Your right, finding the right keywords for your content web site is very important. You can write amazing content on any subject, but if no one is searching for it, or your site doesn’t rank high for it, there is no real point.

Mike this look like an interesting series of posts. I’m looking forward to how you develop it. I have some PLR an I may just follow along and see if I can use your posts to develop a niche site. I may be like Luca and make this a 2010 project. So keep up the good posts. Thanks, Lonnie.
