I assume you go for exact match keyword and try for an exact match domain to go with it, or do you feel thats not so important?

I'm planning on doing a case study on ecommerce sites powered by affiliate offers soon, but one thing at a time :) As far as keyword research numbers and data, that's subject of my next piece of the guide. I'm going to try and go into as much detail as I possibly can, so hopefully that will help answer some of your questions. Thanks for reading!

I went to Target the other day and walked around for about 20 min. and got a list of about 90 things I am doing keyword research on. I'm only about halfway through, and I've been grindin pretty hard at it. A lot of the things I have been finding though are physical products for example "polka dot sewing machines", so I was thinking I could get actual product links from ShareASale, and CJ. Have you had any experience with sites like that? What kind of combo do you look for for KW's as far as monthly searches and "" search results. I am pumped about this series, it's really good stuff.

I have a network of kids sites revolving around nick shows and games and it brings in a nice Adsense income and has done this for almost 2 years. This CTR is insane, like 15%, but the clicks are cheap. So, it can be done but not in the affiliate way. I have tried that too but killed it when my earnings dropped horribly. Still, stick to the stuff you like though. I hardly update these sites even though they make me a good amount, but they still rank awesome because of the domain and competition. Keep up the guides, good stuff so far. Kid niches from my experience have done alright, but you need volume and a lot of ads.

There will be many posts regarding this topic coming soon. I strongly believe that the number 1 reason people don't make money with these projects is because they don't see them all the way through. You have to stay on board and keep pushing, and often times if you can do that, you can make even the most obscure niches profitable. When you get all ADD about your projects, you'll never profit from anything. Thanks for the comment

You forgot too mention the most important part for a lot of people getting started: If you go with a niche you don’t care about because you think it’ll have good business, you care enough to stick with it for the long run and turn it into a real producer.

You forgot too mention the most important part for a lot of people getting started: If you go with a niche you don't care about because you think it'll have good business, you care enough to stick with it for the long run and turn it into a real producer. Also, niches for old people like antiques? They're as boring as they sound... If it doesn't pique your interest a little, move on. “The niches that you know something about.”
