5 Techniques to Dominate the Long-Tail
By Dane Christensen, Search Engine Marketing Manager at Lyris, Inc
Countless articles have been written about the importance of focusing on long-tail keywords for both Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and pay-per-click (PPC) advertising. It's generally agreed that long-tail keywords produce higher quality traffic at a lower cost.
It's a great theory. But there is the small matter of generating the massive number of long-tail keywords needed to build a significant amount of traffic. By its very nature, long-tail keyword traffic is scattered across a very wide landscape.

Speaking of the newsletter, Mark from California let us know, "I run two hotels and manage my own PPC programs. I was heading towards a $250,000 spend for 2009 until I picked up a simple tip from a PPCSummit.com email newsletter: "turn off broad match." I checked search terms that were triggering my keywords and found that about 35% of my clicks were not targeted and irrelevant to my adds. (The search engine supposedly had "broadened" its broad match parameters.) I believe that this "ONE TIP" will save me $80,000-$100,000 over the next year."
