Has a NEWBIE gone out of his depth?
1 Week into the IM affiliate marketing "learning curve" I am having a bit of a dilemma. I have bought my hosting, my domain and have decided on the products i want to promote. I am creating an Amazon Review site and it is a ONE niche - Multi product site.
Now I did research a variety of products within the niche using their brand name and their model number. Each of which has a keyword search volume of around 1000-3000. That to me looked good enough to create single page review sites that targeted that keyword.
I also searched the term in google and found that there were around 250,000 - 500,000 sites that contained that keyword. I used Traffic Travis (free) to estimate the difficulty of each keyword to get in the top 10 of google. Each of them bar one was "Relatively easy". So i began to feel confident I had chosen the correct niche and product.
However, after watching the first 2 modules of Ed Dales "The Challenge" Im having second thoughts. In the course it is mentioned to go down to a micro niche which im unsure mine is or not, although does a nicro niche apply to amazon products as such? In addition, it is advised to target keywords that gain around 80 searches (Per day) and that have a SEO competition of around 30,000.
What im mainly asking is whether a more experienced marketer could tell me whether the niche im searching into (with the search results above) is out of my depth for being a newbie. Or is that search volume and SEO compeition achieveable?
I forgot to mention much of the PR and backlinks are realtively low around 0-5 PR and 0-150 backlinks. Most of the sites are review sites and occasionally some amazon pages to that particular product.
Thanks a great deal !
