Module 1 Overview

In this module we will cover quickly researching a profitable niche with low competition and high search volume, while also picking great keywords that will bring 1000’s of visitors organically. No fancy tools are required, this is straight forward, and can be done within 10 minutes or so.

Whilst other courses, may make you jump through hoops, and dig down to micro niches, this is not required in this course. I’ve done this hundreds of times, and every single time, it has yielded a fantastic result that has brought me thousands of dollars.

These modules are designed to be short, straight to the point, without any fluff so that you can start building your sites straight away, and get the money rolling in.

Getting Started

The First Step is to head on over to Google’s keyword planner. You will need a Google Adwords account to access the new keyword planner, this is free and will take a few minutes if you do not already have one. For the purpose of this module, I will assume you already have one and you are now logged in.

There are several ways of generating Niche ideas. I personally like to pick a topic that I am interested about, such as gaming. I suggest you use gaming as an example for your first website, and then branch out to other niches.

The key to picking an initial niche, is to think of something as broad as possible, that millions enjoy and are a part of. So anything like a Popular TV Show, Game, Or Sport is perfectly fine to begin with. Just keep in mind, it has to be current, and by current, I mean on-going for a good period, such as a year or more.

There’s no point in picking a Specific Movie, as after the release, it will decrease in popularity over a very short period, where as if you picked a game, such as call of duty, it will last for years. For example, Millions still play the original call of duty games – Even though new call of duty games are released every year or so.

You really want to find a niche that people are engaged in for long periods of

time, there is no point creating a site around something that does not have an

active following on a massive scale. You would barely see any traffic or results.

If your stuck for an initial broad niche, a great source you can use is Digital Trends. The site has a broad array of information, such as the most anticipated games of 2014. Just search around, Until you find a Niche that appeals to you.

Having an interest in the niche and basic knowledge, will give you a better edge, So, this is why I will be using gaming as a base example for this module.

Picking Your Niche

I found a list of the most anticipated video games of 2014 on Digital Trends. I am

now going to go into the process of picking an individual game, whilst making

sure it will be extremely popular for at least a year after launch. I highly

recommend that you pick a Niche that is NOT Released yet – this is because you

will miss the pre-launch hype, which means, you won’t get as much traffic.

By pre-launch hype, I mean people searching for the latest information on that niche, so in this example, people will be searching for the latest news for a specific video game, such as weapon information, map information, and anything else to give them an edge over other gamers once launched.

If you skipped the pre-launch, and went for a game that is already released, then yes, you will still get people looking for the latest news, but no where near as many during the pre-launch stage. Trust me, I’ve tried both, and picking an upcoming niche/game is by far the most profitable way to go.

This applies to all niches, not just gaming. For example, If you picked game of thrones, the next series or episode will always be highly anticipated, thus driving huge traffic your way.

Anyways, head over to Keyword Planner, and Enter your chosen niche.

As you can see, I picked Titanfall. It has 301,000 Searches a month and has Low Competition. Which is exactly what we are looking for! (High searches, Low Competition)

P a g e 3 | 28

Page 5: How to make a wordpress website and earn 100$ from affiliate money

If you hover over the little graph icon as shown below, it will bring up the search trends, which is a very useful into whether or not a niche is growing in popularity or decreasing.

If it is decreasing significantly, id suggest moving onto another niche.

Now, we need to dig out a few Keywords that we can use. To do this, switch to keyword group view in the planner, and check out a keyword group related to your original keyword.

Click it to bring up individual search volumes and information.

Now just arrange them by search volume, and copy down the top 5 keywords.

P a g e 4 | 28

Page 6: How to make a wordpress website and earn 100$ from affiliate money

For extra keywords, with possibly higher search volumes. You want to type in 10 extra keywords, related to your niche. Here are several I use, when Suggested keyword Volumes quite low. Tips Hacks

Cheats

Walkthrough

Help News Info

PC

Ebook

Guide

So for example :

Has now brought up a new related keyword, with decent search volume.

So, Id copy that down, Making sure to add it to the top of my list, as it’s the highest search volume.

And that’s all you need to do for niche research. Dig down, and find suggested keywords, closely related to your niche with a decent search volume.

Module 2 Overview

In this module we will continue Domain setup, So that it is niche relevant, and has one of your keywords in it for a possible SEO Boost. I personally use Namecheap for all my domains, but you are welcome to use which ever registrar you wish.

Before we proceed, Make sure you have completed module 1, and have several keywords picked out already.

This module is quite short, and shouldn’t take too long to setup – as its very simple to do.

NOTE: Please check to see if an exact match domain is available for one of your keywords before proceeding past this point, as if there is a domain available,

then you can skip this module

Getting Started

The first step is to Head on over to Name station. If you are going to build multiple sites per month, then its worth signing up to the Pro membership, Which is from $9/Month, and trust me, oh boy is it worth it – The extra features, and No limitations make things a lot easier, Of course its entirely up to you!

Assuming you have a free account for now, head on over to ‘Domain name generators’ and click ‘add keyword list’.

Set it up such as the following. I was using titanfall in this example, obviously replace the keyword with your niche/primary keyword, and be sure to change the gaming keyword list if you can’t find a decent available domain, to e.g Top 1000 Keywords.

Now pick a domain from the list generated. There are always some amazing domains available, such as : TitanfallWin.com, TitanfallClub.com, TitanfallPlay.com etc.

As long as your Primary keyword is in the domain, that will suffice. No Hyphens or Numbers though!

The Reason we want a domain like above, is that it contains our keyword for a possible SEO Boost, its short, and easy to remember. Better than Some random or general gaming domain right?

Page 10: How to make a wordpress website and earn 100$ from affiliate money

Register and Setup your domain So you’ve found a domain, Now what? Go ahead, and register it over at namecheap or your favourite registar.

NOTE: Always use a Top TLD / .COM / .NET / .ORG [If your budget allows, buy all of the available domains, and then you can redirect the .org and .net to the .com. This will generate more traffic, and ultimately be more valuable when you sell them together. Now, you need to change your nameservers to your hosting nameservers. If you do not have hosting, Signup for Hostgator and use coupon : TMXAFC2003

This will give you $9.94 off any plan. Id suggest going for the Baby Shared hosting package. Be sure to enter the domain you just registered in the top box .

You’ll then be sent your welcome details, with your nameservers as well. All you

now need to do is head on over to namecheap, Click manage domains, select the

domain in question, and click ‘Modify nameservers’. Enter the two nameservers

your host gave you in the welcome email, and save. And were done! Simple eh?
