The Easy Way to Finding a Profitable Niche on Clickbank

I read this older post from 2016 - Niche Hacks - Clickbank Niche Finder
Found it while I was cruising nichehacks.com.  It looks promising since I use ClickBank stuff so I decided to give it a try. You know what the problem is with most people when it comes to doing this kind of work?  They don't follow instructions and they never follow all the way through. Everybody wants the quick easy way out. Like I say if it was easy then everybody would do it.


Let's follow this article  all the way through and see if we can't find a niche. The first step will be the read the article.  Next, I'll go back and break it down into a step-by-step process. after that I'll work the process.  follow along and let's see how it goes.


So...did you read the article? Basically you pick something interesting on the left hand column, select a sub-category then look for something with high gravity...Seriously?


Try it this way:
  1. Select ‘Marketplace' from the top header menu
  2. To the right of ‘Find Products’ select ‘Advanced Search’
  3. Put a checkmark next to ‘Show items with gravity:’ then select ’Higher Than’ from the drop down then 50 for the value.
  4. Finally click ‘Search’
There you have it...A list of all programs higher than 50 Gravity.


For a final step you can leave it on Popularity or select ‘Gravity’ to sort your results.  


Luckily the article has links to building a website. Can’t wait to see what that has to offer.

Later...

Welcome to SEO Notes

seo, search engine optimization


I started this blog because I needed a place to sort out my thoughts. I don't even know where to start. Maybe the beginning will help…

Awhile back me and a friend of mine had an idea to buy a whole bunch of really good domain names, SEO the hell out of each website, and then throw in some Adsense, Amazon affiliate stuff or whatever to the pages and make a whole bunch of money online.  Sounds good, right?

Things didn’t exactly turn out that way…

I kept watching these guys on YouTube and they made it look so easy making a $2,500 on Instagram per day and even more on their YouTube channel and sky's the limit!
So I would try their techniques and and fail,  try again and fail...it really sucked

One of the techniques that I tried out actually didn't fail though it did exactly what it was supposed to do and that was making a new site which had different article headings like MSN’s lifestyle, money, health and fitness - stuff like that.

So I bought a domain, some semi expensive plug-ins from Themeforest, started blogging and it started drawing a lot of traffic and then it got hacked and it just never seemed to recover from that. Hostgator shut me down twice and I finally moved to a different provider. To this day I think it had a lot more to do with HostGator than it did me.

I had about 12 other domains but providing content and also entering into a category like diet and weight loss was a huge mistake.The diet and weight loss category for SEO and trying to get ranked on Google is super tough.

If you're just starting out in SEO work I would highly recommend finding a niche market and working with that first. Something with low competition but high traffic.

It would be different if you were part of a large company that had graphic artist, content creators IT department, web designers Etc. However most of us start out as a one man operation.  and buying content is expensive, as a lot of us start out on a shoestring budget.

Let's face it. In today's world where domains are super cheap, talent is super expensive.
You end up being the web designer,  the SEO guy, the analytics guy, the web console guy, the AdWords guy -  you have to do everything on your own.

It's tough work but worth it if you can stick it out. As for me I'll keep trudging along and follow my own advice... I'm going to find that niche market.
