Hi,

I have received over 70 plus emails in the past 7 days asking on how to research a profitable niche.

And that is similar to receiving over 10 emails a day from my 11,000 email subscribers.

I was sharing with one of my friends that anyone can find a profitable niche online and
no niche is saturated.

The magic is you got to find the right keyword.
(With the right keyword, you get the right traffic.)
And to do that, you got to use the right tool.

Google has been really generous in these past 2 years, making many
tools free of charge so business owners wannabes like yourself
can start making money online right now…Yes, Right now!

As I have said many times, the right keywords must fulfil
the following 3 criterias:

1. there must be a demand
2. other people are spending money to get it
3. the profit is significant enough to make your time and effort worthwhile

Below are the 6 free google keyword tools which you can use.

1. Google Sktools
=> http://www.google.com/sktool/#

2. Google Keyword tool
=> https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

3. Google Search
=> http://www.google.com

4. Google Search Options
=> Whenever you do a search in google, you can see a “show options”
just above the search results.

5. Google Wonder Wheels
=> http://www.googlewonderwheel.com/

6. Google Related Search
This feature is found in Google.com to help you to refine your search and at the
same time, telling you other similar niche keywords other people are finding.

In the comment box below, let me know which one you want to learn more
so I can cover that in the next blog post.

* Start of Interview *

1. Please introduce your name, who you are, which country are you staying in and your area of IM expertise

Hi, my name is Winson Yeung. I am born in Hong Kong and came to Singapore at the age of 7 to study. My area of expertise is Search Engine Optimization(SEO) and Backlinks Building.

2. Share with us your first success in Internet Marketing and how did you do that

Well, before I share my first success in Internet Marketing, let me share with you how I got myself involved in Internet Marketing instead. On June 2007 when I was 17 years old, I came across a Singapore Get Rich Online product call “Simply-Rich Singapore” and purchased my first product online but it was a useless product which gotten my hand burnt when I followed their “system” and use Google Adwords to advertise a hop link.

After a few months of losses, I stopped the Google Adwords Campaign and started to analysis stuff myself. I started to do research on the internet and bought quite a number of E-Books to get me started. At that point of time, I do not have any income and had to rely on my saving which I have saved from my monthly pocket allowance. The journey is tough at the point of time when capital is limited.

As I persevere on, I made my first sale from affiliate marketing via Clickbank which motivate me to continue with my internet marketing journey. Next, I went on to setup my first online service business – the article writing service called “CCArticles”. My partner and I have gathered these top quality writers and bring them together to form this article writing team.

Since then, I’m making real money through my article writing service and proceed on with other income such as affiliate marketing and etc.

3. Share with us one obstacle which you have overcome and you have learnt a lot from it

One of the obstacles I face is the lack of focus. Well, if you surf on the internet often, you will find that there are lots of ways to make money online, but the problem is which method suits you the best? I have bought a lot of these products and have tried to follow every system but it’s still not working for me.

Why? It’s because I always jump from one system to another system and I does not treat my online business as a real business in the past. That is the wrong mindset!

So I sat down and started evaluating my actions and focusing on what I’m doing – My article writing service. Results came after I start to focus in what I’m doing.

4. Share with us one mindset tip you would like to share with others, especially those who find IM hard

As I have said earlier, the correct mindset is to treat your online business as a real business and focus and building that business. If you are currently overloaded with many ways of learning from the internet, I strongly encourage you to pick one of the best methods and start focusing on it. Do not give up if you are making losses for the first few month if you know there is a market in that niche!

5. Share with us one product/ service of yours which you feel is very unique

I would recommend my High Quality Backlinks Building Service where I will build hundreds of backlinks for you from site that has page rank 4 and above.

http://www.highqualitybacklinks.com/backlinksbuildingservice.html

These backlinks works well for me and have gotten me page 1 for keywords like “Online Affiliate Marketing”, “Guide to Internet Marketing “and “Affiliate Email Marketing” for my blog at http://winsonyeung.com

These keywords have high competition level, just go and Google the word and you can find that “Online Affiliate Marketing” will return you 25,200,000 search results while “Guide to Internet Marketing” will return you with “179,000,000” search results!

These backlinks works very well for dominating Google page 1 result.

6. One project you are working on right now and you would like my readers to know

I’m currently working on several projects such as UAW Integration Project, Backlinks Management system and some other mini projects that are not in the IM-niche. Yet, the most exciting one will be my first ever product call “Google Search Domination” this will reveal all the method I have use for my search engine optimization and the tools I use for backlinks building as well. You can view the “pre-launch” phase at

http://www.GoogleSearchDomination.com (Still in progress)

It’s going to go LIVE soon and I will be giving away some review copy before the official launch too.

7. One last tip you want to share with my readers

When you feel like giving up, remember why you held on for so long in the first place (from my beloved girlfriend). If you have really decided that you want to earn money from the internet then you must never give up! If you are at a loss of direction or ideas, just go to the WarriorForum and start interact with top niche internet marketer! I wish you your success in no time.

Winson Yeung

* Start of Interview *

1. Please introduce your name, who you are, which country are you staying in and your area of IM expertise

My name is Alvin and I’m from Singapore. I run a full time search engine optimization consultancy called Savant Consultants. Our company services various multi-national companies and small to medium enterprises in my country.

In addition to that, my other company Mentis Marketing produces and markets our own self improvement products too. And more recently we have ventured into selling internet marketing products.

2. Share with us your first success in Internet Marketing and how did you do that

I initially first started making money through eBay in 2004 after purchasing Jim Cockrum’s “Silent Sales Machine”. I was still studying in university then and was able to generate $2000-3000 a month selling both digital and physical products on eBay.

For the digital products, I would select hot selling resell rights products and sell them for a few dollars on ebay. Using unique listing strategies on eBay, I was able to sell over a few thousand digital products on ebay through a short period of time. But of course now you cannot sell digital products on eBay with their new rulings. But there are still ways around this. =)

But I would say that my real success came from my venture into the self improvement market. One of my first few websites is www.ChargedAudio.com , which retails subliminal mp3s and subliminal cds. The website started off earning only a few hundred dollars a month. But with the use of eBay, I was able to quickly generate a few thousand dollars a month.

What I did was to sell the subliminal products slightly cheaper on eBay. And then funnel each client back into the opt-in list for ChargedAudio.com and then continue marketing to them. Using this strategy, my website was able to gross a few thousand dollars within 2 months.

To date, ChargedAudio.com has over 10,000 clients worldwide and we constantly get new clients everyday.

Let me share a particular strategy that we have implemented that has worked very well for us.

I’m sure everyone is familiar that building a list is extremely important. As it gives you instant access to targeted prospects and clients. What we do is to usually offer a free report, ecourse or bait of some sorts to get the prospect to give us their name and email.

But we took it a step further by offering a free subliminal cd. You can view the opt-in page at http://www.chargedaudio.com/freesubliminal.html

We charge a low shipping fee of $2.99 to send them to cd and get them opted into our list. We do an One Time Offer (OTO) after that to maximize profits too. This strategy benefits me in various ways.

1. I create a higher perceived value for the opt-in bait compared to my competitors in the subliminal market. Where they give free reports or mp3s, my physical cd gives a higher perceived value.

2. I get to charge a small fee of $2.99 for shipping to separate the freebie seekers and those who are willing to commit. While $2.99 is a small sum, at least I know that this prospect has the potential to buy more products. Without saying my list generates very good returns whenever I make a promotion.

3. I still get to maximize profits by doing an OTO. Most marketers tend to forget adding an OTO to their opt-in process. Which is really leaving money on the table.

I must warn you though, our opt-in page is a bit old as we haven’t revamped it in ages. Maybe I’ll get down to doing that in awhile. ; ) But nonetheless it still works like a charm.

So long before the days of Russell Brunson or other Gurus were using the strategy of offering free cds with paid shipping. We’ve already been using it, but just using it in other niches. Your readers might want to consider using this strategy in dominating the competition in their niches.

3. Share with us one obstacle which you have overcome and you have learnt alot from it

Like every other internet marketer, I am constantly distracted with new opportunities. And it’s a matter of setting your priorities right and working on projects that give the highest return first. Especially when there are only so many hours in a day that you can work.

I’ve learnt to overcome this obstacle by firstly outsourcing work whenever I can. And this led to me hiring both full-time and part-time staff to help with the work.

What you can do is to use a portion your profits generated or some of your own money to hire a virtual assistant or part-time staff. Get them to work on areas that you are weaker in. This frees up your time to work on more productive and profitable tasks. Here are some areas that you should always consider outsourcing

- Graphic Design

- Article Writing and Submission

- Backlinks Building (social bookmarking/ web 2.0 setups)

- Website/Blog setup

Oh course at the start, you’ll start off outsourcing small bits here and there. But as your business grows. You’ll find it so much worthwhile to outsource this work.

Secondly, I use this methodology and system whenever I access new projects to take on. And based on the assessment, I’ll then decide which projects are good to go, and which should take a seat on the bench for the moment. Here are some questions I’ll ask myself regarding the project, which I rate from 1-5 (1 being real bad and 5 being real good).

1. How long would it take to get this project up and running?
2. How profitable is this project in the short-term?
3. How profitable is this project in the long-run?
4. Is this project synergistic with the existing projects I have?

Setup an assessment sheet and rate these type of questions whenever you want to take on a new project. Separate the duds from the winners and file them up. This way you would be able cut down the number of projects that you might be multi-tasking on.

4. Share with us one mindset tip you would like to share with others, especially those who find IM hard

Anything is possible. As long as you can dream, plan and take action.

Dream your big dreams, what you want to accomplish in life. Think of the material comforts that you wish to attain for yourself and your family.

Plan and set your goal. Be it to generate $1000 constantly in a month or $5000. Then start planning and working backwards to see what you need to generate this kind of money.

Lastly, take goddamm action. Too many internet marketers fail because they just don’t take action or take too little action.

Following this mindset, there just ain’t any way you cannot succeed.

5. Share with us one product/ service of yours which you feel is very unique

I would definite recommend my unique review affiliate marketing system, “Authority Blueprint X”, created by me and my partner, Joel Chue.

http://www.AuthorityBlueprintX.com

In our opinion, it’s one of the easiest and fastest way to make money online without a product. And with our experience in search engine optimization, we also developed a customized wordpress theme that’s included in the package to get your review websites ranked real fast on the search engines.

In a nutshell, we would say it’s a step-by-step blueprint for making money online.

6. One project you are working on right now and you would like my readers to know

I’m currently working on several projects both in the IM and self improvement niches. Because I have the support of full-time staff in my company, we are able to launch new products almost every month.

Joel and I just recently launched a new IM product called “Authority Resell Mastery”. Where we showcase how we take old resell rights products and turn them into money monsters.

What we realized is that a lot of internet marketers have a lot of resell rights products collecting digital dust on their hard drives. And they would probably not see the light of day. But these are valuable resources that anyone can take to make a nice income from.

You can view the product at http://www.AuthorityResellMastery.com

Oh and it doesn’t cost an arm or leg. It’s sort of a way for us to give back to the internet marketing community.

7. One last tip you want to share with my readers

Take action!

When I first started out, I was too absorbed with reading and buying the “latest new product”. Thinking that with additional knowledge, I would succeed faster. I’m sure many of your readers would be able to relate to this.

Well in my opinion. Knowledge is not power.

Only “Applied knowledge is power”.

Making money online is actually rather simple. Learn from one or 2 proven experts and stick to their system. Take action and implement their strategies. Give it a while for results to show. Sometimes results can take 1-2 months to show but don’t give up.

Soon you’ll see yourself making a few hundred dollars a month, then it’d snowball into a few thousand…and pretty soon you’ll see yourself making a 6 figure income easily.

But you have to take action for all this to happen.

Only when you started making money, then spend a bit of your time to invest in your education in purchasing the latest new product. What I do on a daily basis is to read for 1 hour a day new internet marketing material. This allows me to keep up to date with the latest strategies, but more importantly it also ensures that I have time to take action on the activities that actually yield money.

So remember, take action today!

1. Please introduce your name, who you are, which country are you staying in and your area of IM expertise

My full name is Daniel Molano Fajardo, I am 22 years old and I am currently living in Mexico. I have also lived in Spain, England and Colombia to name a few. I will be travelling all over the world again, starting this summer of 2009.

I started Internet Marketing around June 2008. My main area of expertise is massive amounts of traffic generation, more specifically via SEO, article marketing, keyword research and e-mail marketing.

In short, I have perfected an authority site model which allows me and my clients to rank #1 in the search engines for any keyword within 3 months, regardless of competition, using a 100% white-hat approach.

For more information you can visit: http://www.danielmolano.com/about-me/

2. Share with us your first success in Internet Marketing and how did you do that

My first big success happened around July-August 2008 when I began making over $8,000 USD per month.

When I first began doing Internet Marketing, I didn’t have have a cent to invest and I didn’t have a clue of how it worked. After doing some research, I began doing bits of everything I read, that didn’t make me any money whatsoever.

I was about to give up already, and then a colleague in the Warrior Forum with a harsh reply to one of my posts, told me that I should stick to one single method religiously, take massive action on it and master it. So I took the advice and picked Article Marketing because it was free.

That month I wrote and submitted 300 articles, they key to it was that I optimized each one of them with different low competition long tail keyword so that I could rank high in the search engines for them and generate a lot of targetted traffic pointed towards affiliate offers.

Next thing I know, I was making $8,000 per month. And that is how The Newbie Blueprint system was born, a step by step blueprint explaining exactly how I did it. You can get it here: TheNewbieBlueprint.com

But I couldn’t possibly continue doing all that work, it was way too much effort.

So I thought to myself: “Ranking for low competition keywords is ok, but what if I can rank for ANY keyword?”.

That’s how I began my true journey.

One year later, after a lot of trial an error, many big mistakes and thousands of dollars (every cent I made, I reinvested). I have perfected an authority site model that allows me and my clients to rank #1 in all the search engines for ANY keyword in less than 3 months, regardless of competition, using a 100% white-hat approach.

Now, I am looking at 7 figures by 2010 if everything keeps up the way it’s going.

3. Share with us one obstacle which you have overcome and you have learnt alot from it

The biggest obstacle I overcame was my mentality. There was three parts to this shift.

To begin with, I thought all this was about getting rich overnight and that it could be done with no hard work and no effort.

I was obviously wrong, if you want to make big bucks online, you need to work your ass off. At least until you have made enough money to start hiring and outsourcing. That doesn’t mean it’s hard, but you will have to work for it.

Then it was the scarcity mindset. Thinking that there is way too much competition to succeed… Only until I realized that competition is actually a good thing and that it can be taken to your advantage, that’s when I began succeeding. Adopt an abundance mindset, not a scarcity one, or you will fail.

And most importantly, I came in to this industry with the “free cash” way of thinking. Basically, I wanted to make free cash quick. There is no such thing, unless you win the lottery.

If you want at least 6 figures in net profit, you have to invest a lot of money. Even if you worked 24 hours and never slept, you are not going to make much alone. You at least need to start outsourcing.

Thinking in terms of “affordable”, “too expensive”, “high cost”, “free”, “cheap” etc.. is a self fulfilling prophecy for failure. You want money, start thinking in terms of BUSINESS and INVESTMENT. You get what you pay for.

For example, a great mentor or business consulting, is going to cost you at least $5,000 USD. Most people will think “that’s too expensive”, those who think that will fail. In fact, I guarantee failure for those who think that way.

$5,000 might seem much, but if that investment is going to make you at least $100,000 USD, isn’t it worth it? Of course it is, and that’s why this mentality is so powerful.

No one is going to reveal their masterpieces for $27, not even for $1997… If you want the best stuff, be prepared to invest in it. Trust me, it will be worth it.

So stop buying cheap information products, and make wise invesments (no matter what the cost is), that will truly help you.

4. Share with us one mindset tip you would like to share with others, especially those who find IM hard

I have already answered this question above.

5. Share with us about the uniqueness of one of your products.

My internet business consulting services are unprecedented. There is no method, system, model or anything that can match them.

Why?

Because as I have said already. After a lot of trial and error, many big mistakes and thousands of dollars invested. I have perfected an authority site model which will allow anyone to rank #1 for ANY keyword out there in the major search engines in less than 3 months, including Google. No matter what the competition is, and it is 100% white-hat. Nothing weird or black-hat is going on.

If you know about SEO, that means unlimited targeted traffic. Millions of unique visitors for any niche.

There is nothing out there that can possibly match that. And I will never sell it, not even for $1997 a piece.

Only my exclusive clients get access to this information. And of course I can prove it, I don’t mind revealing the keywords I am ranking for as without my model they are impossible to beat. In fact, I challenge you try and beat my rankings.

If you’re interested, please visit: http://www.danielmolano.com/consulting-services/

6. One project you are working on right now and you would like my readers to know

Right now, I’m focusing heavily on dominating the most competitive keywords within the niches I’m on, using my unique model. I’ve already done it with a few.

Other than that, I’m working on a couple of Joint Ventures.

For example, a friend of mine called Dominic Tay has developed the absolute best article distribution software. It submits to the top 30 article directories with 1 single click. No captchas, no login information, everything is 100% automated. You can even schedule it and turn off your computer, everything will get distributed while you’re asleep.

Check it out here: http://www.articlesubmitauto.com/johnyeospecial

I don’t currently have time for more. My internet business consulting services and the two projects mentioned above have my full attention.

7. One last tip you want to share with my readers

* You must subscribe to my free weekly newsletter at: http://www.thenewbieblueprint.com/

On last Friday, I have sent you an email with a step-by-step
guide on how to effectively use article marketing.

I have received many emails from some of you asking how
exactly do we know if we are focusing on the right keywords.

* * *

Keyword research:
=================

Find a profitable topic…one good resources is http://www.amazon.com/
and also http://www.google.com/trends

Your keyword research should have these 2 basic criteria:

1. more than 300 searches per month

=> https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal

2. less than 20,000 competing sites when you do a google search in quotes.

=> use http://www.google.com/ and remember to put in quotes eg: “keyword”

Choose a long tail keyword and use it for your domain name.
keywordtips.com, howtokeyword.com, allaboutkeyword.com

*Remember you domain MUST have the long tail keyword in it.

* * *

With every article you have submitted to article directories like
ezinearticles.com, you must hyperlink the same keyword back to your
blog.

This is how I did it

=> http://tinyurl.com/agy7u4

Keep on repeating for all the keywords you want to dominate in
Google.

There are plenty of article directories out there such as

- ArticleDashboard.com
- SearchWarp.com
- GoArticles.com
- IdeaMarketers.com
- AmaZines.com
- ArticleAlley.com
- ArticleCity.com
- ArticleCube.com
- ArticleSet.com
- ArticleTrader.com
- ArticlesBase.com
- EasyArticles.com
- uPublish.info
- ArticleSphere.com
- ArticleSnatch.com
- ArticleCodex.com
- ArticlesFactory.com

Have a good weekend!

Cheers,
John
