I'm about to tell you why some people make money hand over fist easily and every day...
Is it because they're marketing geniuses? NO Is it because they're born with a natural gift for copywriting? NO Is it because they've learned some really cool BlackHat SEO tricks? NO
The #1 rule for marketing success anywhere in the world is to sell stuff that people want to....
BUY
- Don't try to sell ice to an eskimo.
- Don't try to sell lighter fluid to El Diablo...
- Don't try to sell MLM types some guides on how to start their own infoproduct business.
The real Magic Bullet is to Niche Affiliate Marketing Success is to find hot niches with hungry buyers waiting for you to present your offer to them
Don't sell stuff people want to read, or get for free, or request instant refunds on, or buy from their own affiliate links a la ClickBank. Sell stuff that people want to buy and the money will come in hand over fist for you. When people typically think about Finding Hot Niches full of hungry buyers the "IM" niche and the adult industry are two niches that come to mind. However those are only 2 mega-niches out of millions of possible micro and mega-niches you could be selling to.
Do you want to know how to find hot niches getting a recent upward surges in traffic volume?
Then go to ebaypulse, google trends, use the free wordtracker tool, and google's external KW tool and many other trend-icators. Trend-icators are trend indicators showing you what is hot right now based on what people are buying and searching for. These can be good tools fo rthe niche affiliate markter because it can tell you what sells often although it can change. Sometimes you can see a trend and decide to jmp on the bandwagon and get disappointing results. The reason for that is you tried to build a new site write some new articles, get some link-love, link-juice whatever.... and then go find some products to sell to that niche. However, if the trends goes away quickly and you're still busy building these sites after the traffic starts to decrease, that's like chasing the tail end of a hurricane hoping it swings back your way and notices you. OK maybe nobody wants to chase a hurricane or have it coming straight at them, but if you think of traffic and buyers heading to you in droves as a good thing, then you don't want to be chasing the tail end of it and want to be standing in fornt of it. And if you build a site, get some links and find some products only to give up once the traffic goes away, that's like closing the barn door after the horse ran way. A big waste of time only if you stop working on the site. So why would you want to to quit working on a site if the trend has decreased? Because it's likely to repeat itself is some horizontally relevant way once the next clebrity scandal hits, or the next video game version 8 comes out. If you kept working on a site based on trendy niches, then your site could develop into a trends niche, ever think of that? If you think of your site as an asset that you're constantly building up with backlinks and site content, the search engines will love you and this will make it easier for you to capitalize on the next trend that hits. But this time you're ready! Ready to NOT build another site, but add new pages and posts and affiliate links to your site that you never stopped working on. Obviously the next latest hot niche trend would have to be related to your current site but then again, you could simply make a new category of pages and posts and split the site focus, too. You can follow the trends and easily capitlaize on them via free blogs and lenses and hub pages and some social bookmarking tactics. However, there's plenty of hot niches coming out each and every day that leave web surfers disappointed that there's no really useful information out there for them about their latest medical malady or latest video game cheats guide. It's up to you to find these hot niches and exploit them
What is a Hot Niche?
What most people mean by Hot Niches is a niche that's getting a lot of attention now like Yeast Infections and Hypermiling... Those are hot niches because searches for those terms are increasing in number and more people are looking for information on the relevant product. Therefore many niche affiliate marketers are jumping into those niches. However, those "HOT" niches aren't really what you're after... Not really... What you want is to find hot niches with hungry buyers looking for a solution and not finding it easily (yet). That's where you come in. You get eyeballs (traffic) to view your "solutions" via the myriad methods that are readily available to you. Getting traffic to your sites is as easy as optimizing a web page and getting links to those pages to attain good rankings for the words people are searching for in the search engines, ie. organic traffic volume. Once again though it comes to the audience that sees your offer. People with medical ailments are suffering and in desperate need for solutions, as are the avid hobbyists like rose gardeners and car enthusiasts. Getting out of debt can be a great niche to get into, but do people with money problems have the inclination to spend even more money on debt relief products? I don' t know the asnwer to that, but there's a ton of searches for those terms and plenty of people in those niches. That makes debt relief a "hot niche" but does that mean it's still worth getting into?
How can you find out if your target audience is full of buyers or cheapskates?
A client of mine ranks on page 1, position 1 for a term related to a hobby (won't give away the niche here) that has thousands of enthusiasts flocking to his site, and his site and services are THE place to go to for quality products. However, the market is one of low-end products that are frequently given away or cost close to $2.00 a piece. He OWNS this niche full of enthusiasts and it's the go-to site for the avid hobbyists, but it's not making him a millionaire, not yet anyways. He's selling advertising space, making money off people submititng their products to his authority site, and is well-respected by his customers and clients. Look, you don't want to own the niche you're getting interested in, you just want to make a good chunk of affiliate income from your niche marketing endeavors. The best way to do that is not just to find out where the easy traffic is.... NO, you want to find out where the easy sales are, too. If you find a niche with a lot of hungry buyers, very little traffic and very little competition, then that is the best kind of niche to get into for the beginning niche affiliate marketer.
What's the best way to build a niche site, a lens a hub page, a free wordpress site?
Well, I can't take credit for being the perosn who came up with this information, but I can take credit for reading, absorbing and assimilating the information and sharing it with you. When you build a niche site, you can use the method Andrew Hansen mention in his Niche Marketing On Crack products, which was to build one site based around one product you're selling. That's good advice, but what most people think of first when they're building a site is what it's going to look like and that's where the whole idea of a hot niche site starts to go astray. Word sells, pictures don't, but if your site can give the visitors the feeling that they're at a site that wasn't thrown up in a fe wminutes, they'll "dial in" to the information more and be more receptive to your content. So, if you had a site about ADHD that means parents and educators and even doctors (if they had time) would come across in their web searches. Parents are ocming to find out information about ADHD for their children, but would also be interested in a parenting tips newsletter or magazine or something like that. Educators would want to know about how best to teach to their target audience (if they had students with ADHD) so some material targetting the educators is needed here as well. The doctors have a pharmaceutical interest in the site's information and would want to know more aobut the alleged side ffects or benefits or latest rpeorts about certain new drugs. So point them towards those authority sites and you got a happy visitor there. Let's pull it all together now... You visited a site about ADHD and saw information on medicine, education material for teachers, and information for parents, too. either one of the three type sof visitors woul dbe impressed with your site as a good site for qualit yinformation and your site content woul dbe respecte dmore by what it said, without saying anything at all. And this ocul dbe accomplsihed by having the right content and categorie son your site, not just a flashy header graphic you worke don for a few days. In a few days you ocul dhave created the content that owul dmake your visitors happiest. I DO think that graphics are important, but it's best to get the content on the site first, then get it noticed by the search engines, then play around with the aesthetics of the site afterwards, once you've written your articles, g
