hi richkid...

your 5 steps articles is spot on to the exact niche research techniques I use...

a few tips though... when you search google for the phrase match you use these""
they're called quotation marks... parenthesis are ()

also...100,000 competing pages is extremely high for a keyword that only gets 3500 searches a month. My ratio (especially when im coaching newbies) is so find a keyword with at least 2000 searches per month at the seo book... and then under 10000 competing pages. That's how you get banging traffic that converts...

if I were going to attempt such a high competition keyword as 100,000 i'd need a lot of searches per month so i'd be looking for at least 7000 - 12000 searches per month.

great tip on the domain name... that really makes a difference when getting higher ranks in the search engine. I ALWAYS find a domain name that matches my keyword!

Goodluck,
Chaunna

Thanks.

1. I thought I was good at english.. obviously not.

2. That is a good point with the competition, but I have gotten to the top of 1,000,000 competitors before, it will just take a bit of work - I will look for a better niche again next time.

3. the domain and the page titles are the key in my opinion.

Thanks for your input!

yeah.. i thought ur info was great, but thought that you might add researching a niche for newbies or something.. because for a new person to try for a keyword with that much competition - they'd never get ranked....

oh and sry about the parenthesis thing.. im a teacher so those things stand out to me

To make your search for a niche easier, here are ten questions to help you research and find a niche that’s right for you:

1. Where is there a gap in your market that is not being filled?

2. Which parts of your market have segments that are underserved?

3. Where could you offer more variety to the products or services currently offered?

4. What other options might you consider offering?

5. What could you offer as a complementary service to better serve your customers?

6. What is your competition not offering that would be of service to potential customers?

7. What information can you glean from online reviews, that can help you better pinpoint what customers like and dislike about competitors?

8. Where can you capitalize on competitor weaknesses to make them your strengths?

9. Where do potential customers get their information?

10. Who is your potential customer? What are their needs and desires?

I do a lot of research on Amazon books top sellers.

Sell what is popular and sell what is already selling. .

No need to guess what people want. Go and find what they are looking for and craving.
