Longtail Terms That Convert – “how to get rid of X”

Ever wondered how you can expand your inventory of longtail keywords? We all know they convert at higher percentages and cost less to rank for or purchase in the PPC space.

Sometimes it just takes a push to think outside the box. The key is action words. For example, “how to get rid of.”

I hope this gets your creative juices flowing:

how to get rid of mouse
how to get rid of acne
how to get rid of flea
how to get rid of stretch marks
how to get rid of acne scar
how to get rid of fruit flies
how to get rid of pimples
how to get rid of spyware

I call them “action words”, they are the added terms people use when hoping to really find something. Quite a lot of people search for “how do i burn fat” and may be more willing to purchase something than the person starting out with searches like “burn fat” …

Think about some of these other “action words” when building your longtail list.

aid
build
buy
create
cure
do it yourself

    Want to start your private office arms race right now?

    I just got my own USB rocket launcher :-) Awsome thing.

    Plug into your computer and you got a remote controlled office missile launcher with 360 degrees horizontal and 45 degree vertival rotation with a range of more than 6 meters – which gives you a coverage of 113 square meters round your workplace.
    You can get the gadget here: http://tinyurl.com/2qul3c

    Check out the video they have on the page.

    Cheers

    There’s one special secret Sale link on Amazon:

    http://tinyurl.com/2r7ldr

    This is open every Friday and ONLY on Fridays!

    You can find very good discounts here, although some Fridays you can really get
    lucky and make off like an Amazon bandit – I´ve seen discounts there as low as 75%
    off sticker Price.
