      Post subject: Finding your niche?

Reply with quote

I have decided to use SBI and my plan is to build a niche site that has a newsletter to build my list. The site will be content rich with a link or two to my chosen affiliate program.

Over the last year I have spent a good part of my life researching and reading anything and everything I can about internet marketing. My thought was to create a webpage and newsletter related to that. I realize that market is saturated, and I have heard more than one expert advise against competing in that market unless you have something really unique.

I have a huge collection of ebooks and articles that I was going to use as freebies and for content on my site for internet marketing, but now Im questioning that altogether and am starting to look at niches like background checks, bass fishing, kids parties......all this weirdo stuff I have no interest in, but it seems that may be the way to go.

I know you should do something your interested in, but my interests, internet marketing, computer gaming, movies and books are also saturated markets.

Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

The phrase "internet marketing" appears on 50.3 million pages in Google's index.

The top 10 sites for that phrase all have a PageRank of 5, 6, 7 or 8.

Unless you have a brilliant angle, why on earth would you want to tackle the toughest possible niche available when there are many thousands of others?

Here's an article which may help:

It's time to stop reading and take action.
