What should I sell? How can I find a niche?

December 17, 2008 · Filed Under Another Bright Idea, Getting Started · Comment 

People always ask what should they sell as an affiliate? How to I get traffic? Which niches will I be successful at?   Here is an excerpt from the GooBert report from Michael Campbell that answers those questions and more.

 

“FINDING YOUR NICHE

 

Ideally, it should something you know a lot about. Something that comes easily to you. Something you’re

familiar with. Something you do or use every day. It could be your cell phone, your car, your hobby or something work related. It could be your area of expertise, degree or study.

If you already know what you want sell, go ahead and jump to the next chapter. But if you’re stuck,

and don’t know what to sell, we’ll do a little discovery process to tap your inner desires and passion.

Let me ask you a question.

What do you love to do?

That is the secret question where opportunities lay. It’s so simple that its constantly overlooked. But

seriously, what do you spend your time doing?

Some people love their work. For them, its easy to write about their experiences, training and

expertise. For others work is just a job. If you’re in that category, look to your hobbies, or things

that you enjoy doing.

I’ve done this discovery process with hundreds of people. Even those who claim they’re dumb as a

stump and don’t know anything.  Everyone has something that they get comments on.

People notice you and tell you that you’re good at it, or know a lot about it, whatever that “IT” is

for you.”

GooBert is the fastest way to get traffic and start generating revenue from affiliate programs.

There’s nothing risky about it. It’s easy to do and it doesn’t involve PPC (pay per click) advertising

or any additional expenses.

All you need is access to the internet, a domain name, basic hosting and a WordPress blog. That’s

all you need and it works like magic.

It takes about 30 minutes a day, but you can spend more time on it if you like. It’s up to you. Remember,

the harder you work, the luckier you’ll get.  So why not turn on the TV a half hour later?

Wouldn’t you rather be building your future instead?

WordPress Plugin for Affiliate Marketing

November 3, 2008 · Filed Under Another Bright Idea, Getting Started · 3 Comments 

MaxBlogPress Ninja Affiliate-WordPress Plugin that literally turns content into keyword money generators:
It can convert any keyword in your blog posts/comments into affiliate link. It’s also a full fledge
affiliate link tracking and management system.

I like this approach because it is not another cookie cutter template. It helps you maximize the value of your WordPress site and all the work you put in creating unique content.

I currently have this in testing: 

So far on an established blog that does $3.00 per day we are up to $7.00 per day in earnings.  So 7×30= $210. Well what if we have 5 blogs  5×210  $1050.00. Food for thought.  

The real had part is content, but it does not have to be. Write about things you have an interest in. Don’t worry that “someone already did that”. Your own unique perspective  or “voice” is what makes your content unique. Let MaxBlogPress Ninja Affiliate take care of the linking part.

Holiday gift giving budgets are going to be tight this year. Online shopping has increased every year it has existed and I am betting it does this year too. 

No running around wasting time and gas hunting for that perfect toy, video game, or specialty gift. Still not sure what the hot items to promote this year are? Check out The Pulse at Ebay

Merchants are sending out coupons, deals and free shipping offers to encourage early shopping. Everyone wants the best deal and shopping online.  Kudos to Amazon and Buy.Com Affiliate programs, they have consistently sent out email with ready to paste deals. No messy network logins or trying to remember my password!

Affiliate Tactics

October 9, 2008 · Filed Under Another Bright Idea, Getting Started · 1 Comment 

When deciding on an angle to promote a product ask; “What is it the merchant is NOT doing for their customers? What questions would you have as a customer that the merchant’s web site is not addressing?Use this to create content for your site.

Examples of this tactic:

  • A FAQ -Frequently Asked questions about the affiliate product or service. 
  • Tutorials – Video or screen shot tutorials on subjects like use, installation, trouble shooting.
  • Unusual uses for a product or service( Video works best for this).
