When doing niche research, one of the things it is helpful to know is if people are spending money to advertise it. That’s what Google AdWords is for – you select the keywords you wish to target and your ad will come up (depending on relevance) alongside search results and sites that subscribe to Google’s AdSense service. For anyone that’s been trying to make money online  that comes as no surprise.

But, did you know there is an incrediblt easy way to view all of these ads, and how to find out how many people are targeting any phrase with an AdWords PPC campaign? Here’s a step by step method you can use.

1. Go to Google.

2. Enter your search term in “quotes”.

3. Look in the right hand column under “Sponsored Links”.

4. If there are only a few, you will have to count them by hand.

5. If there are several, you will see a link that says “More Sponsored Links »” Clicking that will show you how many ads there are, and it will also display every ad.

You can use this information to gauge how many people are spending money in AdWords to promote the niche. It will also give you ideas for ads, because you will see al of them laid out in one place.
