Step by Step System to Niche Marketing
By admin | August 5, 2008
The trouble with internet marketing is that there is so much information around that you don’t know where to start. And this information is not arranged in a step by step way that is easy to understand and implement. The gurus often give advice or teaching that is peacemeal or that only relates to one aspect of internet marketing. So after two years of researching virtually everything, I have put together my complete step by step system to internet marketing that teaches you how to start making money online from scratch and which can be replicated again and again. I’ll give you a simplified version of it here.
My personal preferance is niche marketing. I am marketing in a few niches and I’ve had to learn the hard way how to do it right. Here is my 7-step system to niche marketing success:
1. Find a profitable niche. I have come across gurus who teach on this but few know how to teach it correctly. For example, have you heard of gurus that tell you to go into a niche that you personally like or are interested in and at the same time can make you money? Well, what if the niche that I like does not make me money? That’s what happened to me when I took my first internet marketing course. All the niches I liked had low search volumes. So I’ve since learned that finding a profitable niche is more important than one that I like. If they both happen to be one and the same, that’s a bonus. But if a profitable niches is not one of my personal likes, I would still go into it simply because it makes money.
2. Do your keyword research in your profitable niche. In my last post, I mentioned that article marketing in itself is not enough to generate traffic. The missing element is keywords. Keywords with high search volume and few competing sites. Thankfully, there are great free keyword research tools that get the job done excellently. Google’s own keyword research tool is one great example. Now it has been improved and tells you search volume in addition to amount of competition. Once you get a good set of keywords for your niche, you can proceed to the next step.
3. Generate keyword-rich content. Now you find all sorts of content related to your keywords. It may be in the form of articles, audios, videos, blog posts, wiki, social media submissions etc. Just make sure that you make changes to them or write your own so that you do not plagiarize. And also make sure your KW density is correct i.e. around 2-5% of your content, otherwise you may be regarded as spamming. How do you get content? Well, use the search engines, go to article directories, surf the social media sites, video sites, podcasts etc. The more content you have, the better, as long as they are of quality, not just full of fluff.
You with me so far? Good. That’s the first three steps in my 7-step system. I’ll reveal the next 4 steps in my next post.
Stay tuned!
