Niche Marketing

Hi again,

Now Let's talk more about niche marketing. Like I said before you need to find a hot topic. You can look for that in a couple of places. You can look at click bank.com , cj.com, yahoo, google, TV, and twitter. Some hot topics that I've found are, medical (of course narrow this down), gardening.children's stuff and more. How do you know what's a hot topic? In click bank when you go to the marketing section you want to look for affiliates that sales are more than 25 and gravity is more than 100. In Twitter you will see on the right side what are hot topics. The other way is to put in your niche and find out often they are talking tweeting about it. You want it within 5 minutes. In google when you search for a niche at the top it will tell you how many have searched for that topic. The best niche product is an information product versus a hard product. What I mean by that is what's called an ebook or a package that can be downloaded. The cost is much lower that making a physical product. This is a good place to start if you don't have a truck load of money hanging around. Check to see how much competition is out there. You want some just not to much and gear your niche around that and make it unique. Next consider a Joint Venture (JV). A JV is where you find someone else interested in the same niche and then you both promote each other's product for profit. These work very well. Your ebook should usually be around 15-25 pages. You can sell them outright for around $15-$25 or can start a membership and start adding to that. You would offer the person that joins your membership weekly, daily, or monthly ebooks, newsletter, etc. for a fixed price. You could get your information for different places ie. plr sites, articles etc. Some sites are plrwholesaler.com and ezinearticles.com . Remember to make them yours and make them unique. You want to start adding affiliates. An affiliate is a product from say click bank that is a link on your blog or articles that people can go to and maybe buy. This is where you could make an income with no work involved. OK I think that covers the niche part of getting started in Internet marketing. So till next time.

The beginning

In the beginning there were 2 somewhat computer savvy grandparents. They decided to try and start a business on the internet. Well, at first it didn't go very well. Why? We didn't know a thing about marketing much less internet marketing. We didn't know anything about blogging, twitter, making websites, making an using audio and video to market and the heck is viral marketing...So we stepped back and regrouped and got some training and figured most of it out. So if you follow this blog you will learn what we have learned about internet marketing and some resources for you to start your own business using the internet as well as how to market it.
One of the first things we learned is, find out what the people are looking for, not what you want.We want freedom to take grandchildren for awhile and spoil them. We also would like a nice big screen tv, landscaped yard, new stove, etc., you get the idea. Then we realized what we really want is financial freedom, and from doing research that's what most people want. So we're going to try and get it and help you get along the way. Hope you enjoy following us on our journey while we can follow you on yours. Love to hear about your journey's.They are all learning experiences and we're never to old to learn and try new things. Until later...
