If you want to find low competition niches online but you have been struggling with the practical side of how to find a niche…
Then you are in luck!
In this tutorial you are going to learn how to find profitable niches with low competition.
What Will I Learn?
I recently started my blog Cloud Income, after spending a good few years behind the scenes. I have created hundreds of websites and made some great money doing so.
I was becoming tired of the same old regurgitated content, lack of imagination and flare.
That combined with being inspired by this very blog, I decided to do something about it 🙂
In my last post “Niche Site making $1,000/Month“, I explained how I discovered a website that was making a very nice income, in a niche I had never heard of.
Long story short, I created my own site to compete in that niche and 4 months later…
That site is bringing in over $1,000 per month.
It really is a great strategy to find your niche market!
After receiving a number of questions about how to find a niche market, I wanted to show you exactly how I go about finding proven profitable niches.
Using a tactic that 99% of the competition doesn’t use.
My Secret weapon in finding profitable low competition niches that are proven to make money is…
In this article I take 3 sites, pick them apart, and explain how I would go about building my own website in that niche.
There can be a lot of BS in a Flippa auction, spotting a legit website can prove difficult.
There are steps you can take to filter out much of the rubbish to find niches with potential.
This is the easy part, as Flippa provides the tools we need to search for specific attributes. For this analysis I have used the following-
(This search returns 1,149 results)
Essentially I am looking for websites at auction, that are over 12 months old and have a NET profit of $2,000+…THAT HAD A SUCCESSFUL SALE ON FLIPPA.
The last part is essential as this cuts out a lot of the rubbish I mentioned above.
If a site has sold, chances are the buyer did their own due diligence. It doesn’t mean that every result returned will be a gem, but it does give us a great base to work from.
What we do here is scan through the results and ignore any of the following;
Using the example below, here is what I look for in the summary listing;
The results that I like the look of and fall outside of the above ignore list, I add the domain name, auction URL, niche and net profit into a spreadsheet.
I can then come back at anytime, when I am ready to build another niche site.
This saves so much time, as I have a readily available source of proven niches at my disposal and I only need to search through Flippa once 🙂
So let’s look at 3 of these sites in detail shall we?
URL – MilitaryBases.com
Selling price – $125,000
Bids – 8
Net Profit – $5,499
The first site that caught my eye was the auction for MilitaryBases.com, which ended in October 2012.
The sale price of $125,000 certainly peaked my spider senses, which is around 23x monthly net profit. This is above average for a Flippa site, as I usually find sites sell within the 9-15 times net profit mark.
The site is in an evergreen niche and provides a great source of information on the US Military Bases, covering the Air Force, Coast Guard, Army and Navy.
The Flippa auction states;
MilitaryBases.com is a relocation resource. To understand this website, you need to know that:
1. The United States has ~800 military bases worldwide.
2. Military soldiers get PCS orders every 2-3 years which relocates them and their family.
Before moving to a new military base, families want to know about school options, housing availability, hotel rates, local banks, the cost of living, basically, what kind of lifestyle should they expect. That’s where MilitaryBases.com comes in handy. MilitaryBases.com helps these military families transition.
I love how the seller jumps straight in with these facts. This, combined with the easy breakdown of the description into sections, is a very good sign the seller knows what he/she is doing…and this may not be their first time selling a site
(Quick Tip – check out the sellers profile for even more proven niches!)
Even though this auction has just 8 bids (I think the price tag was out of reach for 90% of the Flippa community), it has everything I would look for in a potential niche to enter.
A proven 2 year history in the SERPS, and an average of 120k unique visitors per month and 361k page views. What’s not to like!
The primary revenue source for militarybases.com is AdSense. There are a few other affiliate resources that generate some income, but on the whole Google AdSense is the bread and butter, bringing in over 85% of total revenues.
Ad slots appear in the sidebar as skyscrapers and under the navigation menu as banners. They do blend in with the site very well as image ads are enabled, I think text ads would look out of place on this particular site.
One year on from the sale of Military Bases, the site is sitting at #3 for its main keyword in Google US;
However I am certain their long tail traffic will be driving upwards of 80% of their total traffic (from my own findings).
Here are some other keywords they rank in the top 10 for;
As you can see, the site is doing well for many different state and country searches, if the site has continued to earn at the same rate, the new owner could expect a full return on investment over the coming 12 months.
The site also has some great content, user comments (active service men and women and their families) and backlinks pointing to the site.
As you can see from the current stats below, the various tools like A-hrefs (see the full Ahrefs review), OpenSiteExplorer, MajesticSEO) offer differing volumes of back links;
Following the in-depth study ahrefs vs. MajesticSEO here on MatthewWoodward.co.uk, I actually favour the Ahrefs data over MajesticSEO and OpenSiteExplorer.
UPDATE: Please the results of the new case study to find the best backlink checker.
However by using a combination of all three tools, here are some of the relevant and high authority links I came across;
What’s interesting in this case however is the number of both foreign back links and anchor text.
What’s even more interest is the adult related links in profile. Perhaps victim of a negative SEO attack….looks like it to me.
AdWords still have the majority share of advertising space; however there is also another method being used to monetise the site. This is the banner you are presented with when you visit the root URL.
This appears to be an affiliate/referral method to direct security cleared personal who are transitioning back into civilian life.
It’s a great way to eek more money out of the site whilst keeping it relevant to the visitors, and whilst the popup is fairly obtrusive, I think it works for this niche.
They also have a banner in the header of the site for the same referral method.
Whilst you could build a site around military bases in general, I would look at how to start a blog for say “Air force Bases” and see how that site went.
There will be plenty of content even though you would have ‘niched down’.
Or if you want to “Niche Down”
Any of the above domain names would be fine.
A quick look for some free to register domain names over at ExpiredDomains.net finds the following;
Whilst a little low on the DA side with 22, we have 165 backlinks from 84 domains and it’s a relevant domain name, with part of our keyword in the name. It wouldn’t take much to rebrand this into a highly relevant linking site.
Not an awesome backlink profile, BUT with a DA of 29 and 127 links from lots of different domains, there is little chance of losing all those links overnight.
I would pick up both of these domain names and make these the beginning of a blog network to link back to our new niche site.
Top them up with some targeted, relevant bank links using GSA SER and you can increase the power of these sites.
To be honest, we couldn’t go far wrong to use the content ideas from this site and replicate. I don’t mean straight copy, but use the article titles, layout and formatting to your advantage.
I love the map that is used on MilitaryBases.com, so I would HAVE to have this on my site.
Heading over to UberSuggest, we enter our keyword “Military Bases” and we have hundreds of content ideas in an instant. Here’s a small snippet-
What UberSuggest does is it takes your keyword and appends either a letter or a number to the end. It’s a very clever keyword scraper and one I use frequently.
It doesn’t provide search volume, but on this site, we would be writing for the visitor and this tool tells us what they will be searching for.
Here’s what they say on their site-
With this free keyword tool you can instantly get thousands of keyword ideas from real user queries! Use the keywords to get inspiration for your next blog post, or to optimize your PPC campaigns.
Following the MilitaryBases.com site as an example, having a clean navigation bar, fairly unobtrusive ad slots and helpful info, I think we could build a great site.
I would be very tempted to avoid AdSense for my own site, concentrating on the quality of content and building a place servicemen and women trust.
Once established I would then look to sponsor various charities (you can make small donations in exchange for your image or link to be placed on their sponsors’ page = quality backlink).
This will enhance your credibility and also provide some great backlinks, even if they are brand/URL anchor text.
URL – GuideGator.com
Selling price – $31,100
Bids – 8
Net Profit – $14,000
Unfortunately, the Flippa auction details for GuideGator are no longer available, it must have been removed by either the seller or buyer (you can purchase auction privacy after a successful sale).
However, this is one site I had my eye on back in August this year.
Luckily, whilst the auction was running, I created a folder (using Google Drive) to store all of the auction details 🙂
This info went into my ideas folder for review when I had time, however because I couldn’t decide on the legitimacy of the site and seller I just left it alone. Until now.
Note – the figures quoted are direct from the Flippa auction itself, which I gathered whilst the data was still available.
As the auction is no longer available you will have to take my word for it!
I have added a screenshot below of my Google Drive folder (when I say I captured everything…I mean everything!!)
The first item I want to address is the claimed profits of $14,000 per month.
The auction description stated-
The site for sale is a guide and review web site with over 1,150 unique professionally written articles and a clean sharp design
The site has grown ethically and organically with strong natural backlinks and is continuing to increase revenues month on month.
All of the revenue comes from Adsense which is minimally placed as not to be overly intrusive. Thus increased revenues may be gained from more aggressive forms of advertising.
Current revenues are stable and producing $14,000+ per month with existing traffic which is growing as new content is added to the site.
The trouble had with this site is content quality. It’s appalling.
Here are my notes I took at the time of auction in a Wordpress doc-
Ok so I’m a little critical here, but this is how I perform my research and I like to keep it real!
Clearly non English speaking writers have produced this content, which can be fine IF their grasp of the English language is good enough.
However here we can clearly see very low-quality content, targeting a whole host of niches ranging from Jobs & Careers, Banking, and Online Services such as Netflix and Lovefilm etc.
Below is a snippet of text from one of their articles titled “Apply For Chase Amazon Rewards Visa Card Online”
As you can see, it literally is a guide on how to sign up for this credit card. Go here –> Click This –> Enter Details –> Click Go
Such a simple business model and if the earnings are true, then this is something anyone with a team of Odesk writers can achieve. Just churn out financial related content, day after day.
The auction contained a snapshot of the Wordpress backend showing the number of posts on the site, which I also captured 🙂
So 1,197 posts have been published, and each article contains a Google AdSense block wrapped inside of the text. It’s AdSense 101 really, nothing complicated and probably the quickest and easiest way to make money with a website.
Almost 3 months on from the sale of Guide Gator, the site is still active and looks exactly the same as it did. However with the majority of its traffic claimed to come from Organic sources.
I struggle to find which keywords are bringing visitors to the site.
With such a mishmash of content, topics and articles, it seems highly unlikely that this site is making as much as was claimed by the seller.
In today’s market, I would actually steer clear of the mass content method.
My focus nowadays is primarily on user experience and quality content that I would be happy to share with anyone.
With the SERP marketplace as it is, algorithm updates and stiff competition, I really cannot see this kind of site producing a decent income.
(If you have evidence to the contrary I am all ears!)
URL – BorderCollieAdvice.com
Selling price – $15,100
Bids – 7
Net Profit – $2,000
As a dog lover (I have a Cocker Spaniel) I have always thought about creating a niche site around dogs. This site is exactly what I have always had in mind.
I love that they have chosen a niche within a niche and selected a type of dog breed to target. Border Collies are a very popular dog in both the UK and US.
With 8k unique visitors per month and 25k page views, we can see that there is definitely a market for this niche. People love their dogs, and if you need a piece of information that will help you and your dog, you will spend time looking for it.
This site has a net profit of $2,000 per month, which comes solely from eBook sales.
So not only is the target audience engaged, they are willing to spend money.
This is one niche I would seriously consider getting into.
As mentioned above, eBook sales make up 100% of the $2,000 profits each month.
The eBook is selling at $27.97, which puts them at around 71 sales per month. With 8k visitors, that’s a conversion rate of less than 0.88%, now if you’re anything like me, I bet your thinking…
Geeze, I think could increase than conversion rate to around 3% quite easily.
Let’s say we did just that, which I think is very possible given the niche and target audience. We would be selling 240 eBooks per month which would equate to $6,712 gross profit per month.
(the Flippa auction states both the gross and net profit to be the same; however I do believe the seller will incur charges for the hosting and distribution of the eBook)
Reviewing the site 10 months after the sale for $15,100, we can see it is no longer ranking #1 for “Border Collie Training”, it now lies in position 7 (Google.com).
What is interesting from the SERP results is the 3 YouTube videos ranking just above this site.
I really like the dog niche, it’s the old cliché, people use “dog training” as an example of a keyword you shouldn’t target.
In this case, a niche within a niche, it definitely seems doable.
Here’s how I would tackle it.
Available Domain names
Either of these domain names are a great fit for this niche.
I spent 5 minutes looking at recently expired domains over at expireddomains.net. One domain I did come across is this;
With the following Moz OSE details.
With a Domain Authority of 27 and 80 inbound links, mostly from other dog-related sites, I wouldn’t hesitate to pick up this domain for the reg fee and it would form the beginning of a private blog network.
In this example, I will use LongTailPro for my keyword and competition research.
Create a new campaign-
I have entered “Border Collie” as the only keyword, and filter only keywords with an exact match search volume over 50.
Let’s take a look at the results. (I have asked LTP to calculate the Keyword Competitiveness (KC) for some of the keywords I am interested in)
As you can see, we’ve got plenty to go at and if you spend longer than the 5 minutes that I did in LTP, you will find that there are plenty of other keywords to target.
I will save this campaign and refer back to it frequently when I need content ideas for my site. I aim for at least 50 article ideas, but it does depend on the size of the niche.
Quick Tip – Head over to Yahoo Answers and type in your main keyword if you are struggling for article ideas. There will be hundreds of related questions that dog owners want to know the answer too.
Some of the standout keywords for me are-
Border collie gifts – 170 US Exacts – Perfect buyer keyword, low search volume but a low KC of just 26
Border collie breeders – 2,400 US Exacts – I would create THE ULTIMATE guide to breeders and reach out to all the websites who make the list. I would use this as link bait in order to get some relevant/authority backlinks. (KC 31)
Border collie colours – I know from having my own pedigree dog that they come in a variety of colours. With 720 US searches per month and a KC of 30, it’s definitely something a user would expect to find on our site.
I really like the – White & Grey Dog WordPress Theme by Mercury, which is now discontinued but take a look to see the style. You could also go with any clean theme, free or paid to begin with.
Our main keyword “Border Collie Training” would form the bulk of our homepage.
The inner pages or posts would be other related terms such as “Border Collie Temperament”, “Border Collie Size”, “Border Collie Shedding” etc.
I would ensure I linked to these inner pages from the homepage, or at least to the category the post belonged too.
A quick note on Posts and Pages in Wordpress.
I go with the thought that if something is going to be written once and is evergreen, I create a page.
If however it’s a piece of news or you are building a blog – then add a post.
Let’s face it, most guides teach you how to find a niche market by using the Google Keyword Planner or some variation thereof.
However, by thinking outside the box and taking a slightly different approach to find your niche, we are able to find a much broader range of profitable low competition niches and keywords.
I hope you enjoyed this post, and that it has made you think about niche research.
You should check out my post where I reveal My Exact Strategy for a $1,000/month Niche Site and also How to Build a Blog Network – The Right Way.
I really enjoyed dissecting these websites and if you decide to follow my advice and tackle them head-on, let me know in the comments.

Great one , perhaps one of the best and convenient article i’ve read . Now it’s time to look for a good niche, thanks Matthew
No problem Adam
This post changed my f***ing life. We just started a blog about dogs in our spare time for the love of dogs (xoFetch), and you only further validated the idea. Site will be done in a bit, too busy with work so don’t peek just yet.Matthew. When you wake up in the morning, I hope you truly know that you’re improving the lives of other people, like me.Bah I sound nutty, but I don’t care. Thanks, man.
That is great to hear Mike and I wish you every success!
Yes, the best kept SEO secret is not telling others how awesome you are on your website, it is not trying to get other people online to talk about how awesome you are, but it is being awesome.
Hahaha nice way of putting it
This article was amazing. Very well explained! It’s difficult to see nowadays articles produced in order to demonstrate the entire process of creating a blog/site, showing how was the way to find the main keyword and how finally monetize it. We need more articles like
Glad you enjoyed it!
your method to find profitable niche blog on flippa are quite good! but I don’t think you can get the same result by copying or following their niche! unless you really know what your doing!my suggestion:its all about choosing the right niche! low competition high paying! as simple as is that! for technical implementation such as backlink and etc. it will need test and trial! but after testing and testing, I am sure most of blogger or webmaster already know how to do it! but my tips for seo is, make sure you like, knowing or want to learn about niche that you choose! cause this things can save a lot of cost, e.g articles, backlink creating and etc! but for several cases, like me, I choose forex niches, I love forex, I know about forex, I can writes about forex with unlimited content! though, my competition are giants, with big budget and huge content, so almost impossible for me to beat them! so I keep them for now, and wait for the right moment, to get back on forex niches!
Hi there!I am so leased I found this info! I am a complete newbie (at 56yrs) and have been floundering around like a fish on the shore. I just want to start a website or blog, (not really understanding the difference!) and earn some money. I am willing to put in the hours, but until now had no real direction. I think I’ve found it. . . Many thanks,Tim
Hey Tim, that is great to hear – let me know if you have any questions!
Extraordinary substance, I was really searching for some extra markets to get into and never at any point pondered looking at Flippa. A debt of gratitude is in order for demonstrating your strategies on narrowing down to discovering great specialties to construct a site around.
No worrys, I hope it helps you to build something awesome!
Great post, Lewis. I might be asking a dumb question, but then again I’m pretty new to all this stuff, however, with regard to your “MilitaryBases” inspired site, if you’d want to avoid Adsense as a way of monetizing the site, what methods would you employ to make your money?
Hi Matt,Thanks for this info. I am sure that now I can the process of finding a good niche site smoothly.
Please come back and let us know how you do Alice!
Thanks for this article, it really helped me to get a clearer picture about this.AArti
No problem Aarti!
I don’t really know, I guess you just copy/paste the adsense code in the right place or use an adsense wordpress plugin
Hi MettThanks for replying, but can you tell me how to do that with AdSense?Thanks Aleksandar
HI MattI have read your analysis about “GuideGator.com” web site and there is something I want you to tell me how to do?It’s about :how to wrapped Google AdSense block in each article inside of the text.Tell me, it is allowed to do that (wrapped each article with GAdSense)?Thanks Aleksandar
Yes that is what most people do
Excellent insight thanks for sharing. I do a lot of what you covered but not everything and not the way you do it. Always good to pick up different ideas and approaches, I’m going to try one of your’s right now! Tom C
No problem Tom, let us know how you do!
Hi I have already in mind how to get Idea from Flippa but this guy made my mind so clear.But one question How to get quality content without spending money ?
Write it yourself
Hello, I have a doubt about the site “GuideGator.com”1.Said net profit is: $ 14,000And the owner sells to $ 31,000 ????Why sell it to 14 thousand dollars, if it can exceed 31 thousand dollars in three months, I do not understand?2.How to calculate the: sale price?
1. No idea never heard of it before2. Google search for how to do a business valuation
Good Stuff Lewis,I have been using Flippa for a long time but your little twist on the research part is new to me and very clever. Thanks for Sharing!Best
It’s a nice little trick 🙂
Thank you! Lewis and Matthew.A query:Why the domains that were found in expireddomains.net, uses them for private network of blogs?Would not it be better to use it as “money site” and create content right there?
Or both 😉
Whoa !! Very excited to check articles like these every week 🙂
Woah !!! Amazing post just came to site after checking my email and the article is worth it 🙂 Going to try these methods 😀
No problem 🙂 I’ll have more like this for you every week!
Thanks for the great tip.With the border collie site, the original owner has obviously written an Ebook to sell. Although you have presented great ideas about how you would go about it, if someone replicates this idea how would anyone convert more Ebooks when they have not written an Ebook themselves.It doesn’t seem like this would work.
Write an eBook/create a product?
You mentioned in your review notes for Guide Gator that they probably paid $4-5 dollars for their poorly written articles by non-U.S. based workers and that you could get good articles written for $5.Mind directing me to an article or help on how to get good content written for $5 per article? I’ve struggled to get decent content in that price range and could use a shove in the right direction.Thanks in advance.
I use 99CentArticles myself – but as always, you get what you pay for.
Very nice post. Thanks a lot you. That’s a pretty clever way of finding niches
Enjoy 🙂
Hey Matt,Great content, I was actually looking for some additional markets to get into and never even thought about checking out Flippa. Thanks for showing your methods on narrowing down to finding good niches to build a site around.
Thanks for this blog and sharing your experience.This article is great, and I’m sure it’ll help me finding my niche, so thank you both (:
Thanks for reading 🙂
For a while, I’m looking a proven method for my niche (keywords) research. I should try your method guys since I never do something like this before.I’m quite new to this business SO this post and others in this blog really help me out.Thanks for Lewis and Matt for their shares.MO
Great, Lewis. You’re one generous guy who doesn’t seem to hide anything, though I’m sure he does rightfully. :)One question. Is it necessary to buy exact match keyword domains? Or even relevant for that matter? I don’t think Google gives any special importance to keywords in the domain names as most of my personal searches show.Anyways, thanks for the great guide. If I kept on reading you, I’m sure I’ll fall in love with you, to be straight! :p
First off, great article, thanks.On site #2 I am not sure why you wouldn’t just plug it into semrush to answer your question. Do you not trust this source or just didn’t think of it or did I miss something?Looks like the site could be doing quite well and especially for a site full of junk. I don’t have a paid semrush account but it looks like: SE Traffic price $9,196 and with a little clicking you can see some of the KWs it is ranking for. I double checked a few and found the results accurate.
GuideGator.com, example No 2 in the article above.I have just noticed that Lewis Ogden wrote the article. So the question goes out to both of you.Thanks
Hi MatthewDo you think the method used by guidegator doesn’t work?I also was following that auction as the income report caught my attention! I was between £14,000 – £16,000 a month not $ dollars.If the root domain has got authority status, good DA etc etc. then surely the long tail, medium competition keywords can rank?maybe wishful thinking…
What is guide gator?
Hi Tony,I do think the model could and does work, however I don’t believe those numbers quoted in the auction were correct for that particular site.I mean I couldn’t find any keywords that they were ranking for, or any decent on page optimisation.Something didn’t look or feel right but I watched it all the same. In terms of replicating that model, I would say it can be done be going after long tail higher CPC keywords or CPA offers.- Lewis
Epic post Lewis. They say “The Riches are in the Niches!”, so very true. About to go check out your post on building Private Blog Networks. Defnitely want to set one up myself one of these days. Have a good one.
Using it as a tier 1 isn’t a bad option, I probably wouldn’t monetise it though
Yes, lesson learned 🙂 There are always some positives even in the worst scenario. I’m considering to do what you said above, however, listing site without traffic isn’t that big of a deal. Second option, to use it as a T1 site and pass some good link juice through it (monetizing it with Adsense maybe, or other network). Initially I thought about aff program, but because it sells software that is in direct competition with the software of that brand, they could actually sue me for acting against their business 🙁 So monetizing via Adsense or similar is probably better option.
Hi Matt,Great post. I have used the exact same method to create, monetize and sell few websites. Lately I bought a great domain name from expired domains (aged, lot of links etc. mint condition I thought…), in the niche that easily brings $1000/M (fanatics of a very popular global brand). This niche is known to me because I have worked on a website in that niche as a JV partner. Now, the little problem is that it has a brand name in it… I got so excited that overlooked that tiny problem completely lol. So it was seating there and waiting for me to do something. While reading your post I have decided to give it ago and bring it to live. Will keep it as long as possible, till they come and take it from me. Interesting thing is, some time ago that brand took 10+ domains from the other guy at one go. However, still I can see a LOT of other sites with their brand in domain name, that are ranking TOP10. As for flipping this domain, brand name is limiting serious buyers considerably, thus making a nice $ virtually impossible. For sure I won’t invest in domain like that any more.
Well you have learnt the lesson in the best way to learn lessons, the hard way :)There is a lot of risk with it though your right. I would perhaps put the site together make it look slick and relist it.
That is one of the very best articles I have ever read on the internet. I’ve bought WSOs that weren’t half as good!Thank you for the share! Got a few pointers off it and then printed it out to fully review later.Thanks again!Corky
All Kudos belong to Lewis!
Great article, thanks.Easy to follow breakdown.Vietnamrum
Thanks 🙂
Great article! You have done an outstanding job of walking us through your logic. Keep up the good work!
All credit to Lewis!
Hi Matt. Just to let you know the Like box for sharing to get the PDF isn’t working. It doesn’t reveal the PDF. The Google+ box works though.
Thank you Lewis! Already bought LongTailPro (hope I did it through one of your affiliate links) which works a great job for me and my research! All the best,Angel
hey man – I did write up a response to this on my iphone but not sure if it posted or not.Essentially I was saying that this is a tough one. They seller seems to be very confident and is offering live team viewer sessions to allow potential buyers to look behind the scenes.He is also asking for payment by Escrow, which would put me even more at ease.One thing that does worry me however is fluctuations in the number of visitors. Potentially buying traffic?? I cannot see what this site ranks for so it is possible that there are hidden costs.June – 27,759 (visitors)July – 34,571 (visitors)August – 151,628 (visitors)September – 42,631 (visitors)October (till 27oct) – 211,903 (visitors)I would steer clear of this one…however if you can identify the traffic sources there is no reason you couldn’t build your own site in this niche, it can be very profitable.UPDATE – I see the auction ended unsold after reaching $50k!!
Matt, I just wanted to give you a sincere thanks. This article was awesome – as awesome as your own articles, and it really helped to expand my mind to new options. Thanks for being the quality guy out there in the internet, always providing such valuable content.
No worrys 🙂
Thanks for your writing. I am a blogger and I always want to have good traffic for my blog. After reading your writing today, I realize that I will have to change some points for my blog in order not to create an attractive niche. I hope that after I created my onw niche, more readers will join it.
All credit to Lewis 🙂
Hi, I love this post. Informative and inspirational. Guest post is one of my plan that I really want to do. your achievements are so impressive. You do so well. I have to confess that. Thanks for sharing this post. Great job! Hope to read more useful articles from you.
Thanks Tony but Lewis wrote this one 🙂
Hi,To be honest my knowldge isn’t all that great in that area but I can certainly throw some campaigns together and share my learnings.Just taken a look at the plugin settings to see if theres a way to throttle that back – are you getting 1 email for every comment that gets published?
Hi Matt! Thanks for your reply.It would be great to read an article from you about “CPA monetization” and related decent techniques in the future. Quick Notice: I am following your answers manually as subscribing is floading my mails with countless posts about new comments. Please if you are finding me unsubscribing to your posts, its due to the vast number of comments i am receiving each day. That means your blog is pretty successfull to an annoying degree ; )Thanks a lot Matt! Great stuff as usual.
That’s one of the most awesome technique I have seen for finding money making niches and that too from Flippa.I normally spend a lot of time searching for various niches on different places but never thought Flippa could turn out to be a gold mine.Thanks for sharing this article with us. It was really worth the read 🙂
No problems, thanks to Lewis!
Hi,Take a look at this article I contributed to yesterday – http://www.link-assistant.com/blog/how-to-consistently-produce-amazing-content/
Matt/Lewis – great post. Something else to distract me :)A lot of the sites on Flippa are fairly new and have loads of content (100’s of pages). Guessing these articles are low quality, spun, etc. Does this method still work? Thinking if its possible as a very short term (Adsense) site strategy.
Well as you browse the sites it will become apparent if thats the case 🙂
Thanks Lewis. Is there I can read about why you did not succeed with semi-spam tiered link building?I know experience is individual thing but anyway it’s very interesting.
Hi MattAll your posts are very engaging. I even can not differenitate which is better than which. I want more post on how to get ideas to write something new. There are many blogs which tells how to blog but you have unique idea to express the same thing. I also want to listen about more copy writing tips. Not writing more than 3 lines in a paragraph is what I have learned from you.Thanks matt
