With all the buzz on the internet on how to make money online and on how to choose the right keywords for your Niche so your site will appear on the first page of the search engines, I decided I would put together something which will help you get a clearer picture on finding your perfect Niche.
First of all everyone when starting out to making money online wants to decide which area of interest they would like to work on, and usually the first thing that comes to mind is Niches such as Shopping, Health, Travel, etc, then they break this down to something like Health (Weight Loss, Hair Loss, Dieting) or for Shopping (Handbags, Shoes, Hats etc).
But one thing that I found is very powerful is when you get more specific on a niche, instead of doing a site on let’s say on “Hats”, you do a site on Baseball Hats for example. In my experience if you narrow your site down to a specific area of interest, you get not only quality visitors but more direct visitors, rather then an overall and competing with hundreds and thousands if not millions of other sites doing the same thing.
I would rather have 3 sites, one called Baseball Hats something dot com, another called Basketball Hats something dot com etc. you see my point right? It is not hard to duplicate the same template and just change some graphics around. It doesn’t have to be a full site, your niche could be just a landing page. By the way for for landing page style sites, I use products and templates from Clickbank, they are one of my favourite affiliate networks and they offer commissions as high as 75%!
Another example is the new Samsung 3d TV that has come out, there is lots of buzz on the internet at the moment, it is coming out in 3 different versions the Plasma, LED and LCD LED with the following kind of models – LED 7000, LCD 750, PDP 7000 and Blu-ray 6900, so there will be a lot of people using keywords such as “Samsung LCD 750″ in Google, so you could buy the full domain samsunglcd750.com as an example and rank for those keywords.
Provided you optimise your website properly, add a few backlinks you should appear on the first page no problems provided your search competition is low, throw up an affiliate link or page so you get commission on the sales, and sit back and watch the money come in, it is that simple!
I recommend 2 tools when doing your research Google Trends which is free it allows you to see what is the hot keyword that is being typed in Google and I also love Keyword Winner , it is an awesome SEO program I use for finding niche keywords and giving you a chance to out beat your competitors in the search engines!
I have tested going for a deep niche, but the only think that I have personally found (maybe because I started blogs on topics that didn't really interest me), is that I give up on them before they have a chance to get decent search traffic.
But this strategy definitely works!
Hi Tom,
That's right, overall you must have a passion for those topics, I mean if you love 3D TV then it feels more right to set up a site on 3D TV, and yes I agree with you, it is very easy to give up if you do not have the passion about the niche!
Sticking to one niche for one website is very important. It is too difficult for you to drive traffic if your website or blog has more than one niche (e.g., dating and legal). We will only stick to a niche that has our strengths and passion, as well as proper keyword research.
Thanks Dan!

Finding the right niche is hard. Being unique these days are hard. Get the golden idea and chances are that someone else already thought of it. The only great advice here is to be even more creative and not letting failures stop you. Every time you have a failure, you are once step closer to a success
