Finding New, *Profitable* Niches

August 03, 2006

Need some inspiration for finding new niches that have a good profit potential? SEOproToolz has an excellent post on Profitable Niches in Under 10 Minutes.

In this post, Marcin uses Wikipedia, Google Adwords' Keywords Tool, which extracts keywords from almost any web page, and Wordtracker.

Using this technique, I can find many far-from-obvious niches very quickly. Many of them pay really well - see "qui tam lawsuits" - another niche I discovered using this technique, while preparing this article.

The key is to build a list of dynamic websites, such as news.google.com, en.wikipedia.org, which are content-rich and include links to many outside resources. Wikipedia is especially convenient, as it contains many specialized portals, list-pages, news pages, etc. - which you can use instead of the main page, to enhance your research even further.

It's a great article, especially if you've been wanting to find some good niches for Adsense sites.
