MSN can make you rich.

View the top ranked site "CAR INSURANCE - The Best Online Auto Insurance Firms!!!" Once you click on it, it redirects you to another site.

Car Insurance is searched for 50,000+ times a day. Of course, that site is recieving only a small cut of that pie. To be ultra-conservative, the site probably receives 1,500 visitors each day. Somehow he's beating major car insurance companies and other informative websites that have been around for a decade by throwing up a site and spamming some blogs.

With that targeted term and the high conversion rates that these insurance quote type sites get, he's getting 100-200 quotes a day. All of this at $8 per quote. They're easily raking in $25,000 a month.

Unbelievable.

Yeah, I've ranked for some high volume terms on MSN before. Unfortunately they weren't particularly valuable or long lasting rankings.

I went to #2 for 'adult games' almost immediately after launching and getting one good link. They have always placed huge emphasis on your content, and keywords in URL.

I've ranked #1 for "dating services" on MSN for quite a while now. I thought that was quite cool. But unfortunately the traffic is quite lame.

[Emancipator]

ive got some good terms on msn as well and completely agree the traffic is lame.

"Dating Services" is only searched 1k times a day, which is why you aren't generating much traffic from that term. That's the catch with MSN -- you'll only see huge returns if the keyword you're ranked for is huge.

Where can you check to see how many times a day something is searched for?

Very rough estimate because it only is from Yahoo & I suspect bots and automated program searches are counted.
