Niche Research Steps:

1. KEI analysis of keyword lists
2. Comparison by marketability and interest
3. Competition and targeted affiliate programs research

Web toolbox:

• http://google.com
• http://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal/
• http://freekeywords.wordtracker.com/gtrends
• http://google.com/trends/

An umbrella phrase picked was “how a computer works“. An untargeted niche with a keyword that doesn’t match both criteria.

Nevertheless this is a topic I can say something about. Besides from experience, I can say that persistence is a more valuable tool in your marketing arsenal comparing to a favorable competition environment.

After a little thought I decided to move my niche marketing blog from the initially suggested Tumblr.com platform to my NeoProfit home site, since my second niche ‘How to Build a Computer’ blog has been suspended for no reason and I don’t want this to happen with this one too. Now all the main steps will be documented and posted to where they are supposed to be from the very beginning at NeoProfit Circle.
