Here is a GREAT way to ensure you NEVER lose when testing new niches

When I first started niche marketing, I was always scared of testing new niches. I mean, what if I do not get any sales? What if I spend needless money on a domain and hosting?

Here is my way around those questions along, with an excuse buster for all you other Warriors who are new to the game, and afraid of testing new niches out of fear of failure or losing money.

First, I discovered one of the best ways to see if I product was worth promoting was to test the products main sales page. I didnt want to waste my time driving traffic to an offer that couldnt convert.

This led me to "redirecting" my site to the site with my affiliate link. I do this initially to see how many HOPS I get vs. how many sales, by having the vistor go directly to the sales page.

There were two possibilities - The product/niche could be hot and convert, or it could be an epic failure.

The first way not to lose when testing niches is by NOT buying hosting. I register my domains at godaddy. Within your godaddy account, you can forward a domain w/o the need for hosting. You still need a domain name, but that is OK - You'll see why in a minute.

Here is how to forward a domain name from your godaddy account:

Log into your godaddy account
Click "domain Manager"
Click the domain you wish to forward
A toolbar will appear across the top of the options page.
Click "forward" It has a green arrow icon
Click "enable forwarding"
Enter your affiliate link
Click OK

Again, the only money you have spent is the $8 for a domain name.

Next, write 5-10 articles and submit them to EZA with your site in the resource box... example.com EZA allows you to redirect from the top level domain, so you are not breaking any rules and your articles will not get rejected. (Of course you can write more articles, you just need a few to get traffic to that salespage.)

After your test (whatever that duration may be), if you find that the niche was a failure, you can still make a little money.

Instead of throwing that $8 away with the domain, invest a little more. Get hosting. If you are reading this, you probably already have a hosting account somewhere that you can add that domain to. I use Hostgator.

Get the domain hosted. Install Wordpress on the domain. Then, go grab those articles you submitted to EZA and put them on the blog.

Now you have a site with content. Run over to Digitalpoint and list the site for sale for $25-$30. If you managed at least one sale in that test, go over to sitepoint and list it there for $50-$97. Then test another niche.

If you follow this plan:

-get a domain
-forward it to the salespage with your affiliate link
-write articles for EZA
-if test fails, host the domain
-install wordpress
-put the articles from EZA on the blog
-flip the site

...then you will always be able to get something out of your failed niche adventures.
