Whats A Niche and Can I Find One Too?
When I came upon that little word -- Niche -- I wondered,"what is this thing called a Niche -- and mostimportantly, can I find my own niche too?
What is A Niche
Well, a niche, is a service or product, that fillsan unmet customer's need -- that is more of aspeciality. You are not competing with themasses for a sale on an ebook or an affiliate tool.Instead, you carve out a small corner of themarket for yourself on the Internet.
Well, the definition was simple, however, findinga niche that I felt comfortable with was goingto be a chore, because I wanted to avoid theaffiliate programs -- and if possible find a companythat privately carried their own affiliateprogram -- without the quota's and the many rules.
How to Find A Niche
When I started looking for a niche market, I startedto make a list of my hobbies, what I liked to do,what I was interested in and what I was familiarwith -- to help me brainstorm. If this littletask does nothing else, it will definitely give you aneye-opener to who you are.
Anyway, when the dust finally settled I realized that Iwanted a niche where it would assist others -- performa service of some sort, and would compliment mycurrent website. Not very decisive, but I had a direction.
Then it happened, just by chance, or maybe it was divineintercession -- anyway, I received a personal email fromone of the assistant manager's from DentalPlans -- statingthat she liked my website and wondered if I would beinterested in becoming an affiliate.
I looked at their website and the affiliate plan -- andI knew that this affiliate program was for me.
