Hello all,
In some of my keyword searches I've come across a few misspellings that seem to have a good search rate and low competition as compared to the correct spellings, which have a great amount of searches, but also has a huge amount of competition.
My question is how do I use these misspelled words to gain that traffic?
I want to use it without looking like I don't know what I'm doing in this area, but also without having to point out to a potential customer or client that hey you miss spelled the word. That may not put them in a real pre-sell kind of mood.

Hey DebtFreeMe,
A few ways that I take advantage of profitable misspelled keywords is to mix them in my content. I definitely WOULD recommend having the correct spelling version in major sections like headlines & sub-headings. However, you can salt & pepper misspelled keywords within you content so that search engines can pick it up. By mixing it in your content in this subtle type of way, you are not so obvious with it. Even if a reader picks it up - they would know most likely view it as a minor typo...because it is confirmed that you do actually know the correct spelling of your word because it is present in major sections like headlines/sub-headings.
Also at the bottom of your page you can create a section with the correct spelling and notate that it "commonly spelled as...". Point out that these are easy to understand why people would interpret the spelling those ways -- however the actual spelling is (insert correct spelling). By doing it in this tone it should not come across as insulting and will softly educate your visitor. Also you could point out that you mixed in those "technically misspelled" versions to accomodate those common sub-spellings.
Notice how I refer to misspellings with phrases like "commonly spelled as..., "technically misspelled" or "sub-spellings". This is just a softer less offensive way of flat-out telling your visitor that "hey you misspelled this word!" _________________ *Viral Marketing Mix *Get Paid to Chat Online *Tap into the Best Affiliate Markets
This used to work very well for some terms but the search engines now seem to show the correct spelling and sites listed for it now. Yahoo did it first now google seems to do it. This means you will get less traffic as they change misspelled words to correct ones now. _________________ Surveys that pay Cheap lcd Tvs t1 prices Web Hosting paypal
