Search Engine Marketing (SEM) Opportunities for wikihow.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.

Comments: I've been contributing to wikiHow for months, and my experience has been fantastic. The community is exceptionally welcoming and friendly, and mistakes are dealt with kindly while achievements are recognized and congratulated on. Besides being easy and fun to contribute to, there are also a lot of high-quality articles to learn from. The site is well-designed and contributing is easy and uncomplicated. Because anyone can edit wikiHow, there are a lot of poorly written articles, especially those directed towards children and teenagers. However, the amount of well-researched, well-written articles balances these out nicely.

Comments: This website is great. I have been an active contributor for over 2 years, and I have enjoyed it a lot. The community is very active and friendly, and the quality of the articles is amazing. With everyone working together, the articles are amazing quality. Yes, there is vandalism, just as any wiki, but it is taken care of in a matter of minutes which proves how active the community is. wikiHow is also a very fair place, having lots of reason to delete an article if needed or take action on a vandal. If you are looking how to do something, you definitely have come to the right place. It is better than any how-to website I have been to. I strongly recommend using it, and you might even learn something new if you use it! :)

Comments: I stumbled upon wikihow while googling one of my various hobbies. After ten minutes of browsing I was an addict. The support is excellent. They responded within hours to all of my concerns and did so in a polite and proffesional manner. Unlike many wikis, the editors on wikihow are helpful and supportive and encourage a great community atmosphere.
