I posted this in the newbie section because I have almost zero experience here.

Few questions about arbi, specifically arbi 2.0. I've read the whole damn forum, so if I'm asking something that's already been answered I do apologize.

1. Generally speaking, is it good to shoot for the high traffic, high competition, high paying niches like insurance, loans, ect? This would make the most sense to me, and I'd assume the answer is yes, but I'm still curious as to what you guys would have to say.

2. I've only used adsense on a blog once before, and it seemed like it was great about targeting the content. I'm messing around with setting up an arbi site, targeting insurance. The header, page title, meta tags, and content are all extremely targetted for these keywords, yet I'm pulling ads related to personal finance for some reason.

I went back and put the <!-- google_ad_section_start --> tags around my H1 title, and still nothing relevant. The word "money" is only mentioned once in the article I wrote, maybe I should just edit it.

Is this just an issue with the bot not crawling the page yet? Any tips?

As far as the arbi 2.0 stuff I've put the page up on a site that I use for landing pages, and it's all linked together, so I'm guessing I'm alright on that end. The article I wrote is pretty informative too.

Any suggestions to get the ads targetted would be helpful, as would any other tips I should know. (I'm pretty sure I've read every arbi thread here, so I've got a decent place to start from.)

Thanks,

-Scott
 


Hey Scott the reason that is happening is because the advertisers use the keywords to go for that ad. So basically they also use insurance keyword for their finance ads.

Does that happen a lot these days? Doesn't seem to make a whole lot a sense from an advertisers' point of view.
 
Scott, I've found AdWords to be a complete bitch with regards to keywords. For instance if my targeted keyword was "blue widget" and I'd have just a single line in my content that said "blue widget brings you great success", I'd end up with 12 ads on "great success", which was totally gay.

I ended up fixing the problem by boosting the keyword density to 8 - 10%. There's a bunch of websites out there that help you analyze your keyword density. Don't overdo it, though, or google will rape you. Also, if you haven't done so already create a separate subdomain or folder for your arbi page so it looks like either

bluewidget.yourdomain.com
or
yourdomain.com/blue-widget

http://www.yourdomain.com/blue-widget
