What niches seem to continue to stay profitable?

Think about what motivates people to buy.

-To lessen pain (physical or mental)

-For better relationships

-To solve problems

-For financial gain

Just a very few suggestions, but with this little guide, go to your friendly Keyword Tool and start some research.

Best to you.

Thanks for the reply, rallenk. They're good points, not niche specific but very good points you make. I'll keep those in mind.

In my experience the most profitable ones are the:
1. make money online (business, finance)
2. health
3. real estate

Thanks for the reply, imfusa. I've heard real estate is a good one but I honestly don't even know where to begin with that. Making money online seems like a good one to go with but it's definitely seems like a tough one to compete in.

One niche that seems to be evergreen is forex. It's a multi trillion dollar niche and from the site owners perspective some truly yummy commissions up for grabs. With residual elements on some services. Eg, if you know the right ones, some brokers will offer a per trade commission for clients that you provide them. That's just titanic.

And, with the global economy in the toilet, increasing numbers of ordinary folks will be turning to work from home income methods like forex trading.

There are many other niches too - unfortunately services like debt help and credit repair are in greater need, again due to the savage global economy. I remember reading an article recently about a debt help company turning people away because it just didn't have the staff resources to cope with demand.

We would expect to see things like foreclosures up. With job losses rampant in places like the USA, UK and much of Europe - that's a niche that will sadly do well over the next few years.

Rallenk was right about his summary on picking niches though - pick any niche that's emotive, and it would typically be evergreen. Dieting. Hairloss. Cancer. Always in demand, because they reduce peoples quality of life.

I appreciate the great reply, drr. I will definitely keep all of that in mind, it's definitely given me a few ideas on what I could and may just do.

The more they want it, the easier it is to sell to them.

Dating and membership sites are highly profitable. I heard this from one of Russell Brunson's interviews with a guy (i forget his name) from the illuminati program from dot com secrets x. This guy has 50 membership sites and make about a million a year. Everyone belongs to a membership site one way or another HBO, cable, magazines. And dating is big! who would have thought. I just set up a dating membership site up now and I am marketing it. John Alanis is making a mint on how to pick up girls.

It has been said, but if I would start over again Id definitely go with something that solves major problems problems (pref. health)

On top of that, something that you can help people to save their time as well.

example : Travel Packages, Wedding Planning Tips, Party Ideas and Supplies

You already sell ad space and text links. In some ways selling
traffic or list-building would be serving the same market. The
need is for customers or website visitors... or repeat visitors.


This has always been needed and always will be

Willie

the obvious ones have been pointed out already (finance, health, diet, relationships, etc)
One that I have found profitable still is sports and or tickets.

In my view it is Forex, Relation, weight loss, online gaming and few others. In my another thought I will say If you able to create quality content, then every niche is profitable.

Why don't you try promoting consumer products? For example treadmills, vacuum cleaner and health and beauty products? Then from there you can capture lead (email marketing) by giving/selling your ebooks.

Evergreen niches:

1. Make Money Online
2. Health & Fitness
3. Weight Loss
4. Dating
5. Crafts & Hobbies
6. Sports
7. Gardening

Those are my top picks!

I used to struggle with choosing niches, but I now look at my online business from a different angle: I look for products that convert well no matter what niches they are in. Preferably, they convert well because the product creators do a great job at selling such as sales pages, lead capture pages, etc. In this case, all I need to work on is driving traffic there.

I am trying out a couple things now and hopefully they are what I am looking for.

There are 3 things that most people want in life and they will spend a lot of money to get what they want.

They are anything that make people:

1) Healthy (Weight loss, natural health remedies, performance enhancement etc)

2) Wealthy ( Make money online, forex, investment, share trading, retirement planning etc)

3) Happy (Relationship, self improvement, beauty products, pets, golf etc)


Profitable and hungry niches are right in front of you wherever you look.

There are many niches out there, and like most other people have said, fulfilling a need equals profit.

When you've found your niche, check out my eBook service in my sig if you want to really get going and have your own product to sell.

One thing I learned after 13 years of working with people is that we chase dreams.

When I say dreams I'm talking about what we chase...we normally chase external things that we believe will make us healthier, sexier, better person, better father, better mother, better lover, wealthier, etc

We are always seeking and wanting things that will make our life more fulfilling than what it is today.

I have about 74 niches that I focus and write about...but there are lot more...

You also want to focus on things that teach someone how to do something. I will never forget a guy who made a killing off "chicken coops" I guess people were always looking for them and wanting to know how to build them...

One last thing is to look at trending things on Google...some of us think of ourselves as rebels...going against the grain...but the truth is that we follow crowds, friends, or people we like.

People wants and desires is what society demands...Now apply that and you will find profitable niches. Good luck!

In my experience the most profitable niches are making money,video games, health, fitness and popular TV series. But I recommend you go into something you enjoy it will be allot easier to work on it, if you like it.

IF YOU KNOW programming language then

make programming tutorial and submit to most video site.

and some video site share revenue with the owner..so you have a chance to make money.
submit your video tutorial to youtube,vimeo,metacafe,blip.etc.

and make tutorial site also..

you can directly sell training tutorial also..

by dating membership sites, do you all mean matchmaking sites?

Or do you mean membership sites which provides information on how to get attached?

Basically, all problems people have nowadays fall into three categories:

1. Relationships (dating niche)
2. Welfare (make money / financial / loans etc niches)
3. Health (lose weight, look younger, sport niches)

Pick a niche related to one of these three categories and they will continue to be profitable!

People claim you can make money in weight loss, but most of those topics are over crowded now. I made money in the weight loss niche, back in the 90's, but rising PPC costs crushed me. Also, links became very expensive. It is hard to compete with big companies. They will crowd out the small ones.

For example, in 1900 there were hundreds of car companies. However, by 1920 most were gone. They could not compete with the big boys of Detroit and the rest is history for us. Basically, as soon as something starts to make money. Well, a lot of people jump in. Like how many computer companies that were started in the 1980's are still around now - not many...

Key to success is going into forbidden areas. Not only is competition low, but it will stay low over the years. Case in point, the weird and controversial will attract an audience for you. For example, instead of weight loss, do a video on a man who drinks snake blood and claims to be a vampire.

The self-help industry is a trillion dollar market with a lot of buyers. :-)

The issue that I see with the money making niche is that it is nearly impossible to compete in. But, you can try to drill it down to a more specific area of the market. I like to look at it as being a big fish in a small pond. If you just go with making money then your a small fish in a big pond...find a smaller pond in the niche and become a big fish there.

good luck.

Weight Loss still works the Best for me. I have never make a loss promoting products related to weight loss. I cannot say so for the other niches.

For me, this three niche give me a lot of profit.

1. Make money.
2. Weight loss.
3. Beauty product for women.
4. Millionaire self help product.
5. Finance.
6. Learn English course.
