Niches Websites: How to Find a Niche

Posted on December 12th, 2009 in Marketing, Niche Marketing

Niche Websites are a great way for internet marketers to either start or expand their online income. A good niche can come out of anywhere: bird cages, antique maps, historical manuscripts, above 40 dating, its endless really.

Sounds great right? But here’s the problem, which one of all those thousands of niches out there, are profitable?

Here’s what you need to find out…

• Is the niche is big enough?
• Is the niche too big, too hard to compete in?
• Are people spending money in the niche?
• If they are, how hard is the niche to monetize?
• What are the correct keywords to target?
• How hard will it be to get on page one of Google for those keywords?

The good news is all of these questions can be answered quite accurately. The problem is time.

Here is what I mean.

You can’t be successful operating in just one niche, especially if its small. But trying to compete in a large niche like “dating” for example can be very difficult.

So what you need are many small niche websites that each bring in a little money every month. When you add them all up, it can turn into real significant income. But the time needed to research all these different niches will in most cases discourage people from taking action. Plus trial and error can be both time consuming and very expensive, build 15 websites in 15 niches only to find out 1 or 2 are profitable.

How can you solve the time and money problem?

A friend of mine, Jimmy Jones, has put together a product called “Micro Niche Finder.” It does all the market research, keyword research, competitor research, that anyone would need, to find good profitable niches without too much existing competition. It will streamline your research efforts so that you don’t end up spending a lot of time and money building 10 niche websites to find one that is somewhat profitable.

The product gives the user an inherent advantage over others by partially automating the entire niche research side of the business. We all know how to build niche websites, its finding the right niche that is the problem. Micro Niche Finder solves that problem for you.

Here are what some people are saying about the product:

The product is phenomenal and keeps getting better. But I have found something even better…your support! It is rare to find such an effective product and superior, top level support to go with it. Thank you!

Micro Niche Finder is an absolutely wonderful tool for keyword research. It trumps competing, higher-priced tools by a huge margin. I have made Micro Niche Finder one of my preferred business partners. I don’t launch any campaign without consulting it first. Thanks for the great tool, James.

Bottom line is, if you’re looking for new niches and want to use your time and money efficiently, this is a product you should try.

As usual I only discuss products that have a 100% No questions asked refund policy, which Micro Niche Finder does have.

Tiger Woods Scandal….A Marketing Disaster?

Posted on December 9th, 2009 in Marketing Marketing, Tiger Woods scandal

The continuing Tiger Woods sex scandal has still not caused Mr. Woods to lose any of his endorsement deals,…. yet. However, as each day passes with a new woman coming out with new revelations, Tiger’s marketing partners like Nike, Accenture, AT&T, and Tag Heuer, to name a few, have to be at least reviewing the “Morals” clauses in their endorsement contracts with Mr. Woods.

I don’t believe we are anywhere near the point where companies start dropping him left and right yet, especially with his Golf and sports related partners like Nike, whose contract with Tiger is reportedly in the $100 million range. The recent hype about Gator Aid canceling their deal with Tiger is murky. The company says its canceling a specific Tiger related product, and has not mentioned specifically that they are killing their deal with Tiger in full, at least as of this writing.

Still, there have been no Tiger advertisement at all, for any product, on TV and Cable since the beginning of December.

Tiger Woods is still a valuable commodity to these companies. But the value is eroding already. According to Bloomberg News,

Tiger Woods? standing with the public is in freefall following reported extramarital affairs, according to a consumer research company. The 33-year-old golfer?s ranking on a list of celebrity endorsers plunged to 24th from 6th, based on the Davie Brown Index, which marketers and advertising agencies use to gauge the ability of personalities to influence consumer behavior.

Still if things get to the “We need to disassociate with Tiger….” stage, things could get ugly for his endorsement income, very quickly. What could cause that can be left to speculation.

So what does all this tell us about marketing? Well, if you are the endorsed, Nike, etc., don’t put all your eggs in one basket, which I’m sure they don’t. But for smaller marketers, attaching your products to celebrity personas, large or small, can be a double edged sword, since you have no control over your celebrity’s actions.

If you are the endorser, watch what you’re doing because it could cost you big time.

Changing of the Guard

This site will be changing its focus from now on. I am going to focus more on the art and science Marketing. Specifically, what I like to call “Incentive Marketing“. Now I don’t necessarily mean “incentive sites“, although they are the inspiration of my new theory, and I will discuss them in the future, they can make you a lot of money.

I’m talking more about the structure of the basic marketing plan: find leads, pre-sell leads, and close the deal, have those leads hit the “Buy Button”.

Marketing is the use of psychology to arrive at a predetermined result, and, in my opinion, the best way to do that is to “Incentivize” your prospect to do the following:

• Optin to your list

• Buy Products

• Remain on your list

• Buy more products

Lots more to come…stay tuned!
