Any niche will work as long as the product is a quality product. The only niches I would avoid are the more competitive products like iPhones, computers, laptops and so on. You can still make money from them but it is just a lot harder to get there plus the products are updating constantly so your reviews can become outdated quite quickly. function sbmgOptinValidateForm532(name,email) { var name_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm532' + '_' + name); var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm532' + '_' + email); var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; var msg = ''; if ( name_fld.value == '' ) msg = '- Name Required\n'; if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required'; if ( msg == '' ) return true; else alert(msg); return false; }

Can you give us a hint as to which niches convert better with Amazon? I know you said it's more about the product rather than the niche, but generally, which niches do you think is the easiest to convert? i.e. electronics, books, appliances. function sbmgOptinValidateForm875(name,email) { var name_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm875' + '_' + name); var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm875' + '_' + email); var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; var msg = ''; if ( name_fld.value == '' ) msg = '- Name Required\n'; if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required'; if ( msg == '' ) return true; else alert(msg); return false; }

We try and use a domain name that has our main keyword in it but if we can't get one then we just use a generic type of domain name. For instance, if our website is about cordless drills then we will try and get a domain name like: cordlessdrillreviews.com or cordless-drills.com or bestcordlessdrills.com. If we can't get any of those domain names then we will try for domain names like powertools.com or best-power-tool-reviews.com. function sbmgOptinValidateForm111(name,email) { var name_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm111' + '_' + name); var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm111' + '_' + email); var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; var msg = ''; if ( name_fld.value == '' ) msg = '- Name Required\n'; if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required'; if ( msg == '' ) return true; else alert(msg); return false; }

We did the same thing at the start - we didn't use Amazon because we thought the commission was too low. We didn't realize that the commission rate increased with the more products you sold and because people love Amazon they tend to buy more than one thing. function sbmgOptinValidateForm528(name,email) { var name_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm528' + '_' + name); var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm528' + '_' + email); var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; var msg = ''; if ( name_fld.value == '' ) msg = '- Name Required\n'; if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required'; if ( msg == '' ) return true; else alert(msg); return false; }

I had discounted amazon as well recently since I was only seeing 4% commissions and was going to stop all together. But I'm glad I didn't I was able to get a few of my sites to position 1 and have hit the 7% mark both in November and December with an 8%+ conversion rate. I plan on turning up my amazon niche sites in 2012. Definitely a great source. function sbmgOptinValidateForm140(name,email) { var name_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm140' + '_' + name); var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm140' + '_' + email); var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; var msg = ''; if ( name_fld.value == '' ) msg = '- Name Required\n'; if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required'; if ( msg == '' ) return true; else alert(msg); return false; }

That shouldn't take you too long. You don't need to know about html or Joomla or anything else. You only need to know the basics of Wordpress first. Search in Google for 'how to build a blog' for advice. The next step is to write quality content. If you want to be a tech blogger then go and check out the most successful tech blogs on the net. They are successful for a reason and usually it is because they have provided quality content that is helpful to the reader. Focus on quality rather than quantity. You don't need hundreds of articles on your site that are short and of poor quality. Instead you want lots of meaty articles that provide value. function sbmgOptinValidateForm606(name,email) { var name_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm606' + '_' + name); var email_fld = document.getElementById('sbmgOptinValidateForm606' + '_' + email); var reg = /^([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\@([A-Za-z0-9_\-\.])+\.([A-Za-z]{2,4})$/; var msg = ''; if ( name_fld.value == '' ) msg = '- Name Required\n'; if ( reg.test(email_fld.value) == false ) msg += '- Valid Email Required'; if ( msg == '' ) return true; else alert(msg); return false; }
