To go for the broad niche or a sub niche?

Hello Warriors,
I've been wanting to make a site for a certain niche (large and buying) for a while now. However I have a dilema, should I go for the whole niche or for a sub niche (or sub sub niche)

Going for the whole niche, I would be able to get a lot of visitors as there are obviously more long tail keywords there than in a subniche. I could built a list (a bit easier than with a sub niche) maybe use adsense for a bit, and promote offers from click banks and other cpa offers.

On the other hand, I was looking on a cpa netword I am a member of, and I see a product in this niche that has a 9%conversion, and over 3$ epc, which seems insane (campaign has been running for a months, so could be skewed, but still) I know that this product is popular and it does sell. Making a site dedicated to just this product would make it much easier to capitalize on this offer.

So, what do you warriors think? Should I run after the money?

    You're better off starting out in a micro niche. In a broad, popular niche you will find so much competition. Find a segment of that broad niche and you can still sell the same products.

    In your shoes, I'd decide based on how quickly I have to be making money. The subniche will bring it in faster (most likely), but the broad niche has the potential to make you a lot more over the long haul... if you can stand the delayed gratification. Maybe throw something together quickly on the subniche, then switch gears and go for the broad niche a bit at a time.

    Subniches are the way to go if you are just starting out. Big Niches take big efforts and big resources.
