Myths About Affiliate Marketing Niches
There are a lot more people out there selling affiliate marketing advice than those
who have actually managed to use that advice to make their fortunes. And,
unfortunately, those people are constantly aiming for ways to stand out with exciting
new strategies that teach new things no one has ever seen before. They tell you all
sorts of things that are generally untrue or questionable at best. Do any of these
sound familiar:
• Some niches are too competitive
• You cannot make money selling “money making” products
• Clickbank is the only way to go
• High gravity means a product is too competitive
They’re all false and while sometimes it might seem like they’re true, it all really
comes down being able to stand back and knock out the better website. There is no
such thing as a niche that is too competitive. There are just websites that don’t do
enough to be competitive. There are plenty of sites other than Clickbank. High
gravity is a very good thing. And money making products can be highly effective…if
you sell them properly. So, instead of just taking what you hear at face value, let’s
take a look at what does and does not work when researching a new niche.
The Two Ways to Find a Niche
There are hundreds of complex ways to look for a niche, but I say keep it simple.
Don’t try to find the “next big thing” every time you start a new site. Look for things
that already sell, that have a substantial market and that have room for you to build a
site. I utilize two very simple methods for finding new niches – neither of which
requires an expensive membership or epic insights that only a guru would have.
Clickbank
No, it’s not the only affiliate network or method out there, but it’s sure one of the best
and when it comes to finding profitable niches, there are few places where you can
find better data. Here’s my basic walkthrough for finding your niche here:
1. Hit the Marketplace – Go to the Clickbank Marketplace
(http://www.clickbank.com/marketplace.htm) and search for any term. For
example, enter woodworking. You’ll find Woodworking4home – a site with a
gravity of 145 (as of writing this)
