Micro Niche Finder - Parts 4 and 5

Here are the last two videos in the 'Micro Niche Finder' series. If you haven't already seen the first three videos, go down to the two posts previous and watch them in order. They'll make more sense I think.

Micro Niche Finder - Parts 2 and 3

Here are the next two videos...in the Micro Niche Finder study.

INTERNET MARKET RESEARCH

Micro Niche Marketing

It's difficult to know where to begin when first going

into any kind of work at home programs. What is real and what isn't.

The world of niche marketing is full of opportunity!
Choosing a carefully pinpointed niche market should be one of the first steps

that an internet business owner has to take.

A very common way of describing a niche market is,

a targeted group of individuals with very specific and similar needs or interests.

These people engage in similar activities and hence,

they would most probably demand the same goods or services to cater to their needs.

As I have shown in the picture at the beginning of this post,

there is a large circle...consider that the large department stores, magazine,

or whatever your area of interest lie...

it 'caters' to most of our needs...but usually not all...

that is where 'niche' marketing comes in.

You find that area that isn't being covered

and you cover it.

And, the little circles inside the larger circles...are gaps

in the market that can be covered yet again by smaller niche markets.

For instance...let's say you are really into herbs for healing.

You have the large chain stores that cater to the larger markets...

but you want to market 'the every herb cookbook'...

there's a niche....

now, within the cookbook niche...

you see that you might find a market for

consumers to 'grow their own herbs' for cooking...

so you come up with a

'herb gardening kit'.

Well...you get the picture...it's just an example and

I hope it served the purpose of explaining the niches that are

out there...and how they can be filled.

I have run across a tool that I want to share with you.

It is the

"Micro Niche Finder."

Micro Niche Finder is an indespensible tool to online marketing.

The program is simple and easy and comes with good training videos.

Micro Niche Finder is a great keyword research and keyword analysis tool, to find those all important keywords needed to perform optimization on your web pages.

While many marketing gurus recommend that you choose a topic

in which you have experience or interest in it is not really a requirement,

especially with the Micro Niche Finder.

Micro Niche Finder is a software which helps you to uncover profitable niches

you would never even think of.

There is a pretty good set of videos that explains

this tool quite well. Five videos total and I'll share the first

video here, with the others to follow.

How To Make Money Online -- Part 4

Build a Lens.

Head on over to Squidoo

and build your first lens.

The link I provided above is to the lens

"What is Squidoo - And What Can Squidoo Do For You?"

by PotPieGirl.

Just a few of the topics covered in this lens...

1. Can You Make Money With Squidoo?

2. What Are the Benefits of Squidoo?

3. Can Squidoo Help My Online Business?

4. I don't know How to Squidoo!

5. Squidoo Lenses For Sale

I will be honest with you. I do have ten lenses

that I haven't paid nearly enough attention to...

it's my problem with my

"Internet Attention Deficit Disorder"

Now that I'm a little more focused, I will be

giving my lenses far more attention as well as,

building new lenses.

I had gotten one lens into the top 100 in the

Arts category...good for traffic...which translates into money.

It's since fallen completely out, but I know

with a little love and attention I can get most of my lenses

more attention.

I do like this site...I personally just need to do better by it!

How to Make Money Online - Part 3

Part 3...are some

'Do's and Don'ts'

1. Don't use your primary email address when signing up

for these programs, unless you don't mind your inbox

filling up with all kinds of ads and offers.

I've got an email address that I've set up JUST

for these kinds of programs.

I got it free through Yahoo.

2. Any offer that asks for "cellphone number only"...you

might want to avoid.

Sometimes they will put a monthly charge on your phone bill.

Easy to cancel, but I personally, don't want the aggrevation.

3. Don't 'Pay' Money to Make Money.

If it's not 100% free, then you might want

to avoid it.

4. Forums...If the sites have a forum...

visit it..daily if possible..

and participate.

You can find all kinds of

valuable sources and resources

on forums.

How To Make Money Online - Part 2

Part 2 does go

'hand in hand' with part 1.

It deals with referring other

people to the Survey Sites that I listed.

The Vindale Link I posted in Part 1

is actually a 'referral link'.

For every person that clicks on that link,

signs up at Vindale

and completes, at least, one survey...

I earn $5.00.

Take that times the number of people

who click the link, signs up, completes one survery

and I earn $5.00 for each one,

without really doing anything but,

1. signing up myself

2. including the link in this blog

I could sign up for all sorts of programs,

get my own referral code/link,

and receive money for everyone who

signed up through those links.

It sounds pretty easy...but, it will

take time.

But, that is Part 2...in a nutshell.

How To Make Money Online

In all of the research I've been doing, I've contracted

Internet Attention Deficit Disorder...

I'm going along, researching, reading, and all of that...

the material I'm reading refers to (yet another) program

and I click onto the link and find myself immersed

in still more information.

Information OVERLOAD!

I only mention this as a 'word of caution'...I know

I make more sales from my online shops

when I direct my attention toward them, instead of

searching the site to see what else is out there...thus forgetting to

tend to my own shops until long after the best hours

for listing and relisting have passed.

It's the same with other forms of

Work At Home Online Programs. It takes focus to make money.

With that said...

and what I've learned from all of the material

I've researched from PotPieGirl...I'll start with the basics.

"How To Make Money Online".

=================

Per her suggestion...I am going to sign up

with a couple of online survey groups...

they are

Vindale Research

This is the information I got from this group:

We will invite you to try a new product or visit a popular web site.

There are typically new opportunities every week.

If you are interested, you can request the product or visit the web site

and follow the evaluation steps. We will provide you with detailed steps on what to do

and what to evaluate.

After evaluating the product or web site,

we will invite you to fill out a simple online survey.

This is where you share your experience and tell us

how effective the product or web site was.

Your answers are completely anonymous.

We will add money to your Vindale account.

Every survey is worth real money, not points.

Typically, payment is between $5 and $75 per survey depending

on difficulty level and availability.

Every time your account reaches $50, we will send you payment.

When you sign up, you'll be able to earn $2.00 just for

filling in the information about yourself

and they have links to other

survey sites, if you think this is something you would

like to do.

The other survey site is

Survey Spot

Since I signed up with them by going

through Vindale, I was taken to a page

that I filled out and then a survey for prizes.

I won't do many surveys to enter into contest for prizes,

I just don't have the time. We'll see what each

site sends me

and I'll post updates as they do.
