Generic Search Terms vs Gay/Straight Searches
 

I often think about how much of my search traffic is being unclear in what they ask for when searching in google/msn/yahoo. Naturally, a good percentage of people go for very basic search terms like "dicks" or "anal" and maybe a few more are more specific like "anal cumshot" and "large dicks".

But with the 2 terms above, for example, how can we best capture that traffic if the landing page is not quite what they were looking for. I would have to imagine that a good percentage of surfers searching "large dicks" would be gay men looking for large dicks, so clicking through to a freaksofcock or mrbigdickshotchicks layout will turn them away instantly. As well of course, straight men and women looking for large dick porn would also search the same keywords.

Have you thought about the fact that 40-50% of your search traffic may get instantly turned off when loading the page? Is it possible to make that page "onload" appealing to both straight and gay surfers, and let them filter themselves to the correct spot, ie, not a big pussy stuffed with dick on the header but just large dicks, with a "if you're here for gay dicks click here" and then the straight or normally targeted market below.

I have some fairly decent serps on some "generic" type search terms like this. Simply adding a gay text link at the top has increased income but im leary about turning EITHER surfer away.

Anyone's thoughts and experiences with this i would be glad to hear about and discuss.

I have been wondering this for a long time myself and I, too, have quite a few generic search type pages. I have always considered setting up a more filtered approach to sort out the generic traffic, but I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

I'm adding that to my "to do" list. I would love to discuss results with you once I have some numbers.

Its a tough thing, i always did well by "getting rid of" that search traffic to the sponsor as fast as possible, so nice graphic header and bold link text and send them to the best "generic term" sponsor here.

But i know a good percentage of the clicks arent interested in straight, so lately ive been adding links like "If YOU ARE LOOKIN FOR OUR GAY [generic term] click here" and makin it an off color, and up top so its nice and visible on the page. The pages get clicks but nowhere near what i would think the numbers should reflect.

So it leaves me wondering whats the best way to capture them without them turning back, but not scaring off the straight search as well.
