Free Niche Research: Flash Drives
Posted in: Free Niche Research Tags: affiliate niche research, mini site profits, mini sites, niche market research, niche marketing research
Inspired by a sale I made yesterday on a niche mini-site, today’s niche research will be just a little bit different.
A couple of years ago I purchased Info Product Killer, also known as IPK and put up a few sites. I never used the entire method: just part of it, which I modified to suit my style. I never touched these sites after the initial week they went live. At that time, I wrote one article, and built a few back links (maybe 10). That’s yet! Yesterday one of these sites made a large sale (commission over $75) from just one click: that’s the power of a very specific keyword. Anyway, let’s get on to today’s niche.
When I am creating a niche mini-site, I research differently. I first go to Amazon.com, pick a category, and off I go looking for that nugget of gold. Today I picked the Electronics category (BTW, most people look there, so you may want to choose a different category).
Once I picked my category, I dug deeper into the subcategories and decided on the “Memory Cards & External Storage” sub-category. Once in there, at the top of your page you’ll see several tabs: I picked “Most Wished For”.
I scrolled through the items people wish for, and found something that looked interesting.
Some of the criteria I am looking for is:
- good price: I usually look for $50 or more, but I made an exception for this one.
- must be a popular item
- 4 starts or more
- several customer reviews (the more the better)
My next step was to click through to the item I picked and get acquainted with it. One of the more important thinks I look for is a part number specific to that item (see below).
Nest, I start my keyword research: not for “flash drive”, but for the pat number: SDCZ6-016G-A11
Google shows no searches for the part number, but I know people are buying this stuff. So after a little more looking around Amazon, I see that there are a lot of part numbers starting with SDCZ6. Now I do another Goggle search for the shortened search, and here is what I get:
That first keyword gets 6,600 exact searches a day, and the domain was available: BINGO!
Now, you’ll still need to do some more keyword research to come up with some good topics for your articles. Here are the top searches keywords, as well as the top paying AdSense for the niche, in case you actually want to use AdSense on your site (WOW, with those payouts you may want to

I absolutely LOVE summer! And summer is definitely here. With it comes time off school for our children, and summer camps are part of this time off.
Some kids, like my daughter, will go to camp once and be done. But other kids will practically camp all summer long. And for you and me, this is an opportunity to help parents make the best of their kids time to camp. Let’s learn about this niche a little more.

Monetization Suggestions
While I think this niche is best suited for information sites, and AdSense payout is great, there are other opportunities as well: summer camp gear, summer camp care packages, and probably best of all, a summer camp directory. It will be more work, but I think you’d be surprised how well that would do. Camp owners/managers woudl love to have a page on your site, and parents woudl have a place to go for all the info they needed: win-win!

This past week I learned a lot about kidney stones: my mother has been in pain, and I’ve been researching for ways to help her.
People with kidney stones are desperate! And that makes for a great niche to be in. When you are in pain, you want relief now!
Let’s see if the kidney stones niche can be profitable.

As always, Amazon.com has a little bit of everything: books on how to prevent kidney stones, medicine to help you pass the stone, and even kidney stone strainers to help you catch your stones when you pass them etc.
There are some ebooks at Clickbank, but make sure you either buy one and read it before you recommend it, or get a review copy.
Monetization Suggestions
This is mostly an information niche, so AdSense is a good choice to add to those info pages, but your best monetization will be to create your own product and sell it. I purchased an ebook for $39.95 without even thinking twice, because I hated seeing my mom in so much pain.

Free Niche Research: PRK Eye Surgery
Posted in: Free Niche Research Tags: how to find niche, niche market research, niche marketing research, niche research, profitable niche, profitable niches
Guess what? Today’s niche was again, inspired by something that happened in our family. A couple of weeks ago, I presented research on Road Trips the day after my son arrived home form Canada. Yesterday, he had PRK Eye Surgery (photorefractive keratectomy), a type of laser eye surgery used to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness and/or astigmatism. I think it’s an awesome niche, so let’s dig in.

Resources
I would say the best resource for this is a local ophthalmologist: offer him a free listing on your site, and pick his brains about all there is to know about this surgery (and others, especially lasik )
Another resource are people who went through the procedure, and family members of those who went through the procedure.
Possible Affiliate Programs This is one niche where Amazon.com doesn’t have too much. but you can get creative and still use it (keep reading and you’ll find out how, under the monetization).
Monetization Suggestions
Adsense has very good payouts, but there aren’t a lot of advertisers for the specific key phrases. But, if you expand into lasik surgery, as well as other types of eye procedures, there are plenty of ads, and the payouts are even better (as high as over $10). Would you like to attack the lasik niche? Use my keyword research service.
There isn’t much affilatae monetization for this niche, but you can be creative and come up with some offers for the people who went through this surgery. Think about it: someone wearing prescription glasses, could never wear sunglasses. So once they have this corrective surgery, they’ll be looking for some fun, cool, trendy sunglasses. Create an affiliate sunglasses store on your site.
What are other things these people weren’t able to do? Snorkeling, swimming, etc. Come up with an angle to introduce all these things they weren’t able to do before and offer it to them.
You can also have a section for contact lenses: many people are researching this procedure, but are not ready to do it yet, or can’t financially. Offer them an alternative until they can get the surgery.
The best monetization for this niche would be to create a very informative site that attracts potential candidates, and then create a directory of doctors who can perform the surgery. Offer them a listing in your directory for a price.
Here are some domains available to buy today: they are all lower searched for phrases, but very specific.
