The last part of the Adsense Equation is to get high paying keywords to appear on your webpage.  If you are getting a fair amount of traffic, and you are getting a reasonable percentage of people to click through your ads (at least 2%), then the best way to increase your adsense profit is to get high paying adsense keywords, and make more money for each click?

 So how do you determine which keywords will make you the most money?   Unfortunately Google doesn’t put out any kind of list on how much each keyword pays.  They don’t even put out any kind of information on how much they pay each an affiliate for each click as a percentage of how much money they make.   However, there are ways that you can back out which ads pay the most, or at least which ads pay more than others.

1) Do a Google Search - Do a Google search of the keywords that you would like to advertise on your page.  Are there people advertising for that keyword?  If so, look to see how deep the ads go.  If the ads go deeper than the third or fourth Google page, then that is a sign that a fair number of people are bidding on those keywords, and that the keywords can be worth a fair amount of money.

2) Use Google Competitors - Look up how much the ads are going for on Google’s competitors.  Although Google tends to get a premium rate for its ads.  The same ads that sell for a lot on their competitors site will sell for a lot on Google Adsense as well.   You can use this 7 Search tool to estimate the best keywords

3) Sign up for Adwords - Signing up for adsense isn’t very expensive, it only costs $5 to get started.  If you do sign up for Adwords then you can find out how much it will cost to get a top spot on adwords, and that will give you an idea of how much money you will make.  Here is a tutorial on how to find the best Adsense Keywords using Adwords

4) Look for best lists - Some sites will publish lists of what the best adsense keywords they have found are.  Here is one example of a Best Adsense Keyword List
