Probably, you’ve heard about niche affiliate marketing. But do you really understand what a niche is? In simple words, a niche is just a topic for an affiliate marketing business. And in order to make tons of money online through affiliate marketing, you need to choose highly profitable niche. Well, I’m going share a top secret to choose a good niche.

When people go online, normally they want to solve a question by searching on Google or other search engines. We can divide these people into 2 groups:

# Group 1 – People who are desperately want to solve their problems by searching on Google, and they are willing to spend money to solve the problems.

# Group 2 – People who want to solve their problems, but they are not much interested in spending money to solve the problems they have.

What do you think which group you should target to sell your affiliate products?

Yes, you’re right. This is the group1 all we need to target to sell affiliate products.

Now, think about a niche ‘INSOMNIA’, there are lost of people who are suffering from insomnia. If you go to Google AdWord Keyword tool and take a search with keyword ‘insomnia’, you will see that this keyword has high search counts and has a pretty good low competition. So, maybe you think that niche insomnia is a perfect niche for you because the competition is very low and search volume is very high. Don’t you?
