Wham or Scam

As an affiliate marketer the hardest thing I have found when trying to make money online is finding a profitable niche market. There are hundreds of niche keyword software programs out there that say they can help you find a niche market to promote. Finding a profitable niche market it one of the most important (and time consuming) operation in Internet Marketing.

The problem is that there are so many products to chose from (Clickbank alone has thousands) that it is hard to decide what product to promote.  Finding a profitable niche market is a steep learning curve and had it not been for Weathly Affiliate Univeristy  I would not have been able to get this far.

I have always stayed away from niche keyword software mostly because they were expensive and there were too many to choose from. There was never any evidence that these programs were any good.

However, Wealthy Affiliate University are getting ready to launch their very own niche keyword software called NicheQ. Due for release on 13 January 2009 this program is more that just a piece of niche keyword software. According to Wealthy Affiliate University NicheQ will do a lot of the vital research – including keyword research – that will help you identify what niche markets are profitable and worth promoting. There is also advice on how to leverage those markets to increase your selling potential. The best thing is that it’s free.

The downside? NicheQ is only available to Wealthy Affiliate members. If you want to use NicheQ you will have to join Weathly Affiliate first. Membership is $39 per month or $359.88 per year ($29.00 per month).

Why not nip over to the NicheQ website and download the free niche market finder report.

I was gutted to check on the list of top Premium Bond prize winners only to find that the number of prizes ranging from £5,000 to £1m has been dramatically cut. There are still 2 prizes of £1m, but only one prize of £100,000. Other medium and high value prizes have also been cut. This is the direct result of the cut in interest rates announced by the Bank of England to get the economy moving. I guess that we all get caught up in the excitement of maybe winning a big amount of money and forget that the money we invest is susceptible to interest rate fluctuations.

The good news is that once the rate recover so will the amount of prizes. It’s just a case of sitting it out.
