Making Money in Six Steps with Niche Sites

Making money online with partner programs is feasible when things are done the correct way. A lot of online marketers don't research enough before creating their website and finish with traffic not targeted to their site and zero income. In another hand, niche websites with unique content produce targeted traffic and as a result more sales.

For readers who are not familiar with the term, niche websites are sites made on a topic like "Hats" or "Software", while micro-niches are even more limited to "Ballroom Party Hats" or "Free Software for Kids". People searching for these specific keyword terms know what they want and are more likely to buy than those searching for a more general keyword.

The six steps to follow in order to build a niche site are:
- Keyword research
- Domain Name registration
- Website/Blog creation
- Google tools: webmasters/analytics/rss
- Addition of Affiliate Programs
- Web promotion

The first step is to research what topic is of interest and look for keywords that have a good Google search volume and little competition. Only when a workable main keyword has been identified, a domain name should be registered and a website or blog started. This can be done for free using the tools provided by Google but the task can be facilitated by the use of software.

The second step is to register a domain containing the main keyword like this: "Word1Word2.com" or "Word1-Word2.com". Depending on domain availability, the keyword term may be attached or separated with an hyphen. It does not matter if a .com, .net or .org is registered, but it is advisable to be within these 3 domain extensions.

The third step is to create a site, a hosted WordPress blog being the easiest way to go. Unique content has to be written in order to appear original in Google's eyes and having a chance to get indexed quickly. On topic Youtube videos can be added in order to make the site more attractive and interesting. At last content feeds can be used in order to have fresh content added regularly automatically.

The fourth step is to have Google know about the site and the best way to achieve this is to open a Google account and have the URL listed in Google Webmasters with its sitemap. Secondly, adding a Google Analytics piece of stats code to the niche site is another way to tell Google that the site exists. Feedburner is the third Google tool that will make sure the site is indexed quickly.

The fifth step is to look for an affiliate program that is on topic with the main keyword and other secondary keywords of the blog. It is preferable to look for a partnership with a merchant within a Network like Click Bank or Commission Junction as it is easier to reach the threshold commission promoting multiple affiliate programs. More research is needed for independent partner programs to know if they are worth promoting.

The sixth and last step is to promote the website via different methods that can be used together. Marketers have different preferences concerning web promotion, some will use article promotion like the author of this article, others will prefer bookmarking, social marketing or creation of landing pages on WordPress, Squidoo and Blogger to redirect traffic to their money niche site.
