Never give up, take action first ask questions last
Warriors what is your profession!! (300 joke, yeah)
If you are a newbie, this advice should help you.
I've worked on dozens of websites that were supposedly "profitable" before I actually started making small change online, and this was years ago. It wasn't until I entered into a niche I was actually comfortable with that I started making good profits online (It was a niche about baby gender prediction, don't ask me why, but it made great money). People just want genuine content that satisfies their "instant gratification Google search" needs, if you can do that then you are 90% AHEAD OF THE GAME.
If you can satisfy their instant needs, then you have the opportunity to offer them a solution that is relevant to your web content. Now you can find a product for almost any niche when using Amazon as an affiliate outlet, but the commission is very low so unless you are pushing SERIOUS TRAFFIC it most likely won't be something that pays any bills.
A better option would be to find a good clickbank/plimus product, or moreniche/sellhealth/markethealth if you are in the health niche, all of these providers would provide much higher commissions. Most people say its impossible to make good money off of health products (mostly because they've had no success) but there are hundreds of super affiliates banking 6-7 figures off of these products that would prove otherwise.
If you are passionate about a health product, then you might have an awesome opportunity to make some money online. Build a website/blog in an evergreen niche that has a high demand product with high commissions, this is the end of the map for a success strategy - you just have to dot the lines.
Maybe this small post can help inspire you to take action on something you haven't dared try before, quit wasting so much time focusing on what you are going to do, and JUST DO SOMETHING!
For example, do this:
Create a health blog, re-write 16 great articles related to your niche, take a good angle and make it work.
What do I mean by good angle?
How To Get Rid Of Acne Scars! FIX SCARS NOW
This is a micro niche blog I put awhile ago, always had small steady traffic but made 4-5 sales a month off of 20-25 traffic a day (good keywords). I ended up buying the wso/clickbank-product "Project Profits" (yes, I was a huge fan of "Bring The Fresh") and it gave me the ideas of giving a unique angle to my projects.
I redesigned the entire site, the angle of this site is that it appears to be old/wise, so it gives a solid old-school vibe, but also touches base on new age technology. The inverse of past/present has had a huge impact on my site and now it is averaging 2-3 sales a day, at $40 a sale. This has been very steady.
I do not do much in the health market because I am working very heavy in the mobile app market right now. This was just a lucky project maybe, like 1/10 of all my other projects.
But if you are not sure where to start, have to much on your plate, just follow my websites outline, the content is not that great but rankings are sticky and my traffic are enjoying (or at least buying) these products.
For the record, the Market Health products are 90% of the sales, maybe the Revitol landing page is better than the Dermafface I'm not sure, all I know is~
Drop everything and take a break, make a nice health blog related to one major product, put a post on it everyday (every other day, once a week, whatever!)with a unique angle. You might be pleasantly surprised how much money a simple health blog can generate.
Good luck friends, if there is anyone banking 4-5 figures+ monthly on health products please feel free to chime in, I am going to take a break on mobile apps soon to focus more on the health market, it is tickling my fancy and maybe this post can help it tickle yours.
