Search Engine Marketing (SEM) Opportunities for lifehacker.com

Queries that provide opportunities for this site to advertise through Search Engine Marketing (SEM) to get more traffic. They are popular queries that are relevant to the site, and have low competition in search engine marketing. Learn More Many sites are actively advertising in search engines for the most valuable search queries. This high level of competition tends to result in high advertising costs, which makes it difficult to find attractive advertising opportunities. These opportunities may still exist, however, by looking at the "long tail". The long tail contains search queries with lower Query Popularity, but such queries also tend to have lower QCI. By advertising for many of these queries, sites may still be able to manage an effective search engine marketing campaign. Note that not all queries on the long tail may be very relevant to this site, but this list may contain a number of strong advertising candidates.

  • Site is slow and unresponsive

  • Poor customer support
  • Site is slow and unresponsive

Comments: This site suffered the same fate as the rest of the gawker sites, a redesign that essentially killed any fun and navigability the site had. It's not surprising that they're losing traffic, who would want to hack a site just to read it? Nobody.

ffb says: But since I can use all the help I can get its great that there is Lifehacker. So much useful information! Love that site.

I recommend
this site to a friend
Facebook User says: Ever needed to stop a carved Pumpkin from going to mush? Use Google Calendar to manage projects? How about making your own butter in 5 minutes? And everyone need to figure out how to stop procrastinating (like me, writing this instead of working) Lifehacker can help with all of these and more. Aggregating all the useful stuff from day-to-day problems around the home, in the kitchen, on your computer and out on the 'nets. Sometimes it feels like these are "fixes" looking for a problem, and rarely there's a day goes by when there isn't a "5 steps to getting things done today" posts (surely not reading Lifehacker would be a start). On the whole, though, it's the essential guide to fixes for everyday problems.
