Get Into Niche Marketing And Make Money

By Ricardo Radoslovich


If you have spent anytime trying to explore the ways to generate an income on the Internet, it is probable that you will have heard the phrase, "niche marketing". It's not a tough concept to understand since it just refers to a market sub-division where people are looking to buy specific products or services who can be targetted online. Looking to sell in a narrower niche market can be a more lucrative business model because there are people ready to buy from you but with less competitors. The following text is about how to build a lucrative niche marketing business.

The first stage in identifying niches you can make money from is to perform some market research and there are web sites on the Internet that make this relatively easy. For one, Amazon and Clickbank are two hot online marketplaces and if you navigate their websites you will begin to understand how many niches there are to pick from. You can go through the products conveniently listed in several categories and filter out the top-selling ones. Jot down those products you are interested in for additional research.

Now it's time to research a few keywords for your short listed products to see if they are in a potentially moneymaking niche. There are many keyword tools both free and paid and when starting out, most people will use Google's own keyword tool which is one of the free tools out there. The basic aim in keyword research is to begin with broad category words and progressively drill down into longer key phrases that still have a reasonable search volume. Usually these 'long-tailed' keywords will have fewer competition and are the ones you should be aiming for in your niche market.

Having picked those longer key phrases with modest numbers of searches each month, you can now continue and find those with the least numbers of web sites targetting the same phrase. To do this is quick and easy - just type the term within quotation marks into the Google's search bar and press enter. The number of search results that Google gives is an indication of how many web sites out there are using your potential key phrase. Of course, a profitable niche will be one without a lot of competing websites. Several of these longer key phrases will be the names and model numbers of specific products which are search terms used by people who are about to spend money rather than those just searching for information.

Having finished the research and decided on a prospective niche market, you can now begin to build a web site using your list of lucrative niche keywords. A quick and direct way of building a niche website is to use the Wordpress blogging platform for which there are numerous no-cost templates and plug-ins. If available, you should pay for a domain name that incorporates one of your keywords or phrases which will help to get your site higher up in the search engines. Try not to use brand names since this may lead to issues later on.

After you have optimized your website and start to see traffic numbers increase, you can then think about ways to make money from your visitors either for a steady income or with a view of selling the site on later.
