American Idol keyword analysis

With American Idol on television three days a week and with live elimination rounds in full swing, we thought it would be an interesting idea to look at the final 24 contestants' names as keywords. The final 12 girls are: Aayla Brown Becky O'Donohue, Brenna Gethers, Heather Cox, Katharine McPhee, Kellie Pickler, Kinnik Sky, Lisa Tucker, Mandisa, Melissa McGhee, Paris Bennett, Stevie Scott. The final 12 boys are: Ace Young, Bobby Bennett, Bucky Covington, Chris Daughtry, David Radford, Elliot Yamin, Gedeon McKinney, Jose Sway Penala, Kevin Covais, Patrick Hall, Taylor Hicks, Will Makar.

Not surprisingly, traffic on these keywords is extremely low with Google's traffic estimator projecting less than 0.1 click per day on all but four names. The highest of these four, traffic-wise, is Lisa Tucker, who also happen to be the number two most expensive name on the list. But even at number two, it'll only cost advertisers approximately $0.23 for the highest spot in AdSense results. Coming in at number four traffic-wise, but number one for advertising cost (approximately $0.39 for the highest spot) is Heather Cox. What does this mean in summary? Well, that none of these names is a gold mine at this time. However, as the competition progresses in the coming weeks, expect potential finalists to pick up some steam.
