The 20 Most Expensive Google Adwords-Keywords

Back in July of 2011, the search marketing company WordStream released a study which uses the Google Keyword Tool to search for the top 10,000 expensive words in the english dictionary, in their study they have summarised that “insurance” related keywords make up 24% of the Google Adwords Revenue(i.e. 24% of a whopping $33 million).

You can imagine keywords like “buy auto insurance quotes” or “buy home insurance online” that are making big rounds in the web world with some of them claiming upto $54.91 per click. What makes these insurance related words so hot is the fierce competition in the related market and the amount of money being made by these merchants.

The 2nd highest paid keywords is related to “loans” with a highest of $44.28 per click and they form 12.8% of the total revenue! These include keywords like “fixed home equity loans” and “graduate student loans”.

Here is the complete list of the 20 Most Expensive Keywords via WordStream:

1. Insurance (example keywords in this category include “buy car insurance online” and “auto insurance price quotes”)
