How would you monetize a site about pigs?

12 years ago

Write an ebook about pig farming tips, or how to start a pig farming business. Sell any physical products you can find that would relate to that business. I'm sure even that niche you can find some products to be an affiliate for, haha.

Extreme sub-niching is great. You have a small market, but it makes it that much EASIER to dominate it. You can be the pig farm authority. The Tony Robbins of pig farming!

Good luck!

Thanks

Actually there are programs to sell organic turkeys online - which do well during Thanksgiving of course, and you could do the same with the ham.

Or, you find pig products like keychains and that type of stuff.

Add a news letter to that pig farm site and you can advertise there with some regular items and get a feel for what people are really looking for.

I think the "how to start a pig farm" book could be a great idea, and capture the list with a report on "10 misconceptions of raising pigs"

  Actually...I was being serious.:p
  Turkeys do well at Christmas on this side of the Pond.
  I know selling Scottish Salmon and other speciality meats/foods online is big business.
  Andrew says he wants to run a pig farm and folk that run pig farms sell the pig products.

There are plenty of farm-supply stores online, and I'm sure many of them have affiliate programs.

One that comes to mind is JeffersPet.com -- that's not the farm-supply store, but Jeffers does have a specialty store for cows/pigs/sheep. The stores are linked, so you should be able to find it through the JeffersPet side of the site. And I think they even have an affiliate program. You can sell everything a pig farmer needs, from wormers (like ivermectin) to mange treatments to troughs to heating lamps to fencing.

Cheers,
Becky

Thanks

Just keep looking "before the pig" and "after the pig" for good ideas.

You could look into trading pork futures, you could generate some interest by talking about the Dan Akroyd and Eddie Murphy movie "Trading Places" they had a lot of fun with pork belly futures in it.

I recently started working with an opportunity where you can buy catfish fingerlings (young catfish) and sell them when the mature, and the opp does all the raising and selling, your part is pure investment, and an affiliate program.

Maybe you can find a similar program with young pigs.

I know that I could use adsense, but does anyone have other ideas?

lol ... this is a first. I've never heard anyone say that they wanted a smelly, old pig farm when they got rich. I'm intrigued.

What exactly are people looking for when they search for pigs?

Thanks

Just ate some pork fajita! Maybe you could sell tasty recipes using porkmeat.

A lot of norwegian are googling every year on how to make their christmasribs (pig). There are probably similar keywords that get good traffic in your language as well.

Thanks

I have owned 2 pet pigs and I can tell you for sure that the main pain and urgency for pet pig owners is training.

Many people buy pot bellied or micro pigs, because they're very cute when they're little.

They also have an extremely high EQ and are very warm and loving.

The problem is though, that as people become more and more attached to the pig emotionally it's instintive food finding habits become more and more of a problem.

They also have some very weird physical problems commonly, like things prolapsing, etc. that can really freak you out.

An ebook about "Pig Medical Problems & How to Solve Them" might have a market then?

And if all treatment fails...eat it (ok...insensitive I know to those who have become attached to their piggies...)

Write an eBook “weight loss for pigs” and promote it through pig site. All pigs (most of times sows) who’re visiting your website will buy the eBook. (This reply only 4 fun, nothing else)
