Top Paying Keywords CloudSearch

Not really a "tag cloud" because it doesn't use tags - but I've just added a CloudSearch view for adsense/adwords top paying keywords.

I've been working on something else with the ZoomClouds XML for a while now and the idea for this cloud came to me after I set up the page for SEO News.

There are more details on the page - any feedback would be appreciated.

Super Cloud

I finally managed to aggregate all the news-machine feeds into one using FeedCombine then feed it into ZoomClouds via Feedburner (long url problem again)

Now I have a Tagcloud that tracks all five keyword cluster units - if they are watched over time they should show growth and development. Time to write a script that pulls down the required xml from ZoomClouds everyniight methinks and stash it away. Once I have enough examples I can figure out what to do next - SQL or a bunch of awk/perl scripts that do simple data extraction and analysis of the data.

Anyway - ther "SuperCloud" has been added to the sidebard - it just aggregates the top 100 extracted phrases from an aggregation of 5 news feeds, each of which filters 4500 news sources on up to 20 keyword - and gives a cloud view.

I am wondering whether to place the original keywords onto the ZoomCloud stoplists - it will alllow the auto-discovery easier by excluding stuff that I already know about.

More Tag Clouds

I have been using ZoomClouds to examine and analyse incoming information from all the filtered feeds.

It works quite well - the tags "discovered" by ZoomClouds don't always match the original keywords used to filter the news in the first place - so if unusual tags pop up out of nowhere - it reflects an upsurge in popularity for that particular keyword.

I tried to make a "mega cloud" by aggregating all 5 feeds in Rojo and then feeding the resulting RSS URL into ZoomClouds refused to recognise it - so I fed the aggregated feed back to FeedBurner to see if was working - then tried feeding the FeedBurner feed into ZoomClouds - it still says it can't find the feed.
