Lets talk about how
misspelled keywords can be profitable for you as a blogger, business site or freelancer.
With most
Search Engines adopting
auto suggestion, less and less people are accidently misspelling the things they are searching for. But many people don't use Google auto suggest or many more use a search engine or browser where auto suggest isn't enabled and still many people accidently misspell what they are searching for even with auto suggest enabled. For example, some people don't know how to spell
aubergine or make an accidental misspell..

So there's many people who are still accidently search for things using
misspelled words. Are you thinking about those people as a blogger, business site or freelancer?
On eBay, many people
delibrately mispell their auctions for those people that type the misspelling version instead.
You might not think this is a lot, but most people can't and don't spell properly and would rather use txt spk too.
You see what I did there? The correct spelling is
deliberately misspell and you didn't even notice it did you!
It's okay, it doesn't make you a bad person!
But if you're trying to target one or several keywords, have you considered the misspellings of those same keywords?
Think about the
top 5 keywords you are trying to target for your blog or site. Then think about ways in which those same keywords could be misspelled.
Remember that it's easier to rank for keywords if they actually exist on your page. It's the same for misspelled keywords too!
So the next time you write a blog post on something, research what some commonly misspelled keywords are for what it is you're writing about. And then try throw some of them in your page somewhere. You might just be surprised at the organic traffic it provides in the long run!
There are many ways to find
commonly misspelled keywords. But you need to find the ones that are
right for your niche!
To do that you can check through
lists of commonly misspelled words which you can find all over the Internet. Or you can even check through your sites logs and see if there's any search terms that show that might be commonly misspelled.
And of course, you can always use
Google's Keyword Planner Tool to and search for deliberately or commonly misspelled words in your niche and sometimes, you may just see one that has a lot of people misspelling it which mean a lot of people searching it.
However, the competition for misspelled keywords is often
much lower simply because SEO's, webmasters etc, don't bother doing any on-page and off-page SEO to target them!
If you think about this, you can actually find out some
very high search volume keywords that have
insanely low competition for the misspelled versions!
