Google Adwords linked to Forum Search Results
 

Hi,

I'm sorry if this has been asked before. I couldn't find any discussion specific to it. We have a discussion forum of @ 4000 members. We want to get more traffic coming to our forum and wanted to use Google adwords and the Content take from Forum Search Results.

We would do an Advance Search of our forum for certain keywords or combination of keywords to get a search result page displaying the Topic titles and the portion of topic starter posts. Obviously this search result will have the Keywords which we will use to bid in Google Adwords to drive traffic to the 'relevant keayword rich content'.

Will it work? Does google likes or dislikes destination webpages are Forum Search results?

Using VB generic search results link didn't worked as the link expires after some time. So we tried to do this way:

search.php?do=process&query=Keyword1+Keyword2&foru mchoice[]=X&forumchoice[]=Y&sortby=replycount&sortby=threadstart&order=desc ending
(Where keyword 1 & 2 are combination of keywords we will be using in Google Adword campaign).

The above Search query doesn't brings up the Search Result page having Topic titles and First posts which will attract visitors to sign up for forum membership. It just shows a list of relevat topics having the search keyword(s), which I'm sure will not make visitors to join the forum.

I need advice of any better way to create content, having relevant keywords, where i can send traffic from Google Adwords campaings.

We also have VbAdvanced CMPS. Is there a way I can use that to send traffic to, if the first option doesn't works? Then I've to look for ways to populate CMPS pages with Keyword rich content taken from the VB discussion topics.

The main idea is to use various discussion topics to make a keyword relevant content so that it fulfils Google's criteria of having relevant keywords in the content and also to present relevant content for vistors so that they can quickly make up their mind to join the forum.

Please advice. :)

Regards,

RB
