If you want to succeed with affiliate marketing, you have to develop your business first (and it's a business – it's not a hobby!), you have to create it on the right niche. A niche, of course, concerns the type of issues or problems that the goods you endorse tackle. That's exactly what a niche is.

Sadly, unsuccessful advertisers are seeking niches the wrong way. Second, they 're looking for niches based on a hunch. They have a "good feeling" that the niche is "hot" or "awesome."

This is a major issue, because even though you think something is fantastic, it doesn't automatically mean that the members of your target audience share your opinion. There may be a major difference in what you think about a product and your target audience.

Failed advertisers often prefer popularity-based niches. Once you go to ClickBank, you can scan for current items based on both keyword significance and gravity. Gravity tests how easily a single product is selling.

So many ClickBank affiliates pick based solely on gravity. This is a serious statistical mistake. Yeah, it really is.

You can't go on the basis of popularity. You've got to look at the larger picture. You've got to remember other variables.

Finally, ClickBank marketers struggled to fight because they actually copied someone else's pattern. Don't get me wrong, if you know what you're doing, copying someone's success will lead to your own success. I don't have any issues with copying.

What I'm having trouble with is when you copy it blindly. Unfortunately, this is just what those struggling or failing ClickBank marketers are doing.

How Top ClickBank Marketers Choose Niches?

Now that you have a clear understanding of how failed marketers choose ClickBank niches, let me tell you how successful ClickBank marketers are playing the game.

First, they 're going to find traffic. This is very important to me. You have to determine whether or not a niche has a demand.

This is the first question that you need to ask yourself: is there an existing demand for this type of product? Put another way, do the problems that these products solve get enough interest on the internet? Are people willing to buy solutions to these issues?

Next, successful ClickBank marketers will find out how other existing marketers market that product. They 're not starting from scratch.

They don't trust their instincts in the gut. They 're not following their hunches. Instead, they 're looking at what works already. They are looking for objective proof that the promotion model set by a competitor succeeds at some level or another.

Third, successful ClickBank marketers are creating a value-driven marketing platform to promote ClickBank products.

They don't just post content, they don't just pop up links, they create an integrated system that markets many different ClickBank products over time.

Usually, a mailing list is used to do this. They attract content-based people, get people to sign up for their mailing list, and then send useful information that alternates with promotional offers. Eventually, the list pays for itself and more.

Finally, successful ClickBank affiliates are using a 3-layer conversion system. It's a highly effective content marketing system that markets people in a way that doesn't offend or turn them off.
