Really SICK, HOT, & RELEVANT Marketing NICHES WHICH NO ONE IS Taking Advantage Of On EzineArticles!

Look at this guy's post dates.


He is ONLY DOMINIATING IT, because there is literally no one else there.

He is ONLY DOMINIATING IT, because he is consistent.


Not because he is adding bulk. I have SEEN bulk before, I know bulk, that guy isn't bulk. That guy is just smart, has some common sense, and is clever.


He found a niche that was EASY TO DOMINATE, because it has NO competition!

Check the DATES. It's not like he submitted 30 every single day. NOPE! There is no one here in this niche, so he has room to take time out and submit every 5 days if he pleases. HECK, why does he have room to do that?


BECAUSE NO ONE ELSE IS THERE!


And because no one else is there, when he fills PAGE 1 with ALL of his articles, the first thought on someone's mind is that there is a maniac dominating in there, and they get turned off of even wanting to try that niche on EzineArticles.


BUT THAT IS NOT THE CASE, the guy is not a maniac marketer, he is just CONSISTENT.


AND SINCE WHEN did that scare away internet marketers? There are people on this forum right now working on things related to the weight loss niche, or the relationship niche.


Those are HEAVILY populated niches, but that doesn't scare them away.


This is one damn guy. You are telling me people are afraid of one man? MY GOD!

haha, hilarious indeed!

Thanks so much for sharing this with us! This really is an awesome opportunity to get in on!

Here is the plan...Lets all write some Banner Advertising articles and take down his reign...lol

hey acrasial you need to copyright this, I will take only 10% share

It's not even about that. There is a niche which only one guy is sitting in there dominating on Ezine articles alone. Now what is happening on google right now, I don't really care, what it's about is the fact that your product doesn't even have to be about banner advertising.

It just has to be about internet marketing in general, because banner advertising is a part of it.


But how is that helpful to anyone? Well consider this:

One could outsource the writing for this niche, and get someone to submit those articles. The author box itself will say, as mentioned, something along the lines of:

"Need more tips on internet marketing" or something like that, because as this forum should know, there are tons of noobs and people who want to get into internet marketing, and there are also people who want to get into specific niches related to internet marketing.


This is a specific niche, and since it's literally only being tapped by one guy consistently on EZA, there is definitely a lot of potential here!


This particular niche on EZA is just one example of a SMALL PART of a very hot and big niche, but it definitely can get someone some easy views and leads to their website.



My god, doesn't this tell you something? IT'S A VIRTUALLY UNTAPPED NICHE.


It's literally sitting right there SCREAMING AT THE RIGHT PERSON to come and make it into something. That is GOLD!


If your search is really that correct, that nothing comes up, then this is the chance for someone to literally come in and dominate this niche on EZA above this other guy, get listed and dominate that, and virtually get everyone who ever comes that way for that specific thing.


And it doesn't stop there, because as mentioned, this is part of internet marketing as a whole, which is HUGE. Someone could link many products to this, just from the above mentioned, because if a person is doing banner advertising.

They are likely wanting to know about more things related to internet marketing, because it doesn't just stop there! Whoever it is that wants to know about banner advertising, wants to also know how to make money, and you can show them that, by virtually breaking through in this niche and making it the most popular thing since "get your ex back" products!


Remember that "get your ex back" is just a small part of a HUGE market known as the 'RELATIONSHIPS' market. It too was once small, and I am sure that a few years ago, a search on "magic of making up" or "pull your ex back" would have turned up little to no results.


So there is something to be made here, when you consider the broader perspective, and thanks for pointing out the google information, because that only further asserts my point that this niche has a HUGE POTENTIAL, and is virtually untapped!

P.S. if you reply to this post you can PM me the reply, and I will post it here for everyone, so you can keep your post count at 999 for now:

Alright. I have since posted in this thread other niches. That was my VERY FIRST post. I guess this thread is too long, or my posts are too long, or people are simply to busy to read everything I am trying to say here.


That is ONE idea, of a few I have already posted. That is just ONE GUY, and that guy just happens to be targeting that. Now while I am not an expert on that sub-niche, I DEFINITELY know there is more than one damn keyword to a niche~!


Why are there very few people searching for it? Well perhaps people think it's not useful, or it has "run it's course and died out. OR perhaps people simply don't know about it enough, or have never even heard of it.


Honestly, no one knows everything about everything, which means there are people who are NOT searching for it. And if they don't know it exists, as mentioned, they DEFINITELY will not be searching for it.


They also WILL NOT be searching for it if they DO NOT think it's effective.


But WHOSE JOB IS IT to promote this, and to make people aware of it? THE MARKETER. So while it may be true NOW that there are few searches, that is because the marketers in this niche right now are NOT effective.


I will use another example here: Vegas Vince and his barter arbitrage product.


The idea of bartering has been around FOREVER. Literally FOREVER. Yet his product is the only one of it's kind pretty much. If you were to search for barter arbitrage, you'd be lucky to even find an article there which is not written by Sylvia Rolfe or someone employed by Vegas Vince or Sylvia Rolfe.


They are literally killing all of their competition, and it's the first sort of thing of it's kind to be there. Right now it may not be the most popular product, but it's definitely going to increase in popularity, and search engine traffic will increase too.


BUT WHY? Well maybe because there are PEOPLE who are marketing this product, making it known....when it was virtually ignored before. SURE, the idea is old news, but that's up to you to add new tips and new ideas to make it into something!


NO need to re-invent the wheel, but you most definitely can UPGRADE the wheel.






It's HIS JOB to get them noticed, EZA is one tool to get them noticed. The right person in there can use that tool and get views which no one else in that sub-niche ever dreamed of.


I have seen articles that have 200,000 views in niches where everyone else's views are nowhere near that. So what did the article marketer do to get those kinds of views?


That is the key. What this guy is doing himself, I could care less, but his example here, that he is going in there being consistent, and dominating that niche (even if the traffic is low for EZA alone), is a good example to others of what can be done!


True: it may not be the best example if he is not optimizing all of his work so that he is generating heaps of traffic. I never said he's good at marketing. I said he's GOOD at being consistent. That's it, he submits daily, and that MATTERS: consistency.


Because now he is dominating that, even if it's not the most fantastic niche on the planet, he has MANAGED to dominate something all on his own.



Well I don't really see anyone "new" in this thread, but definitely people are getting the wrong idea. This idea itself is meant to be applied all over the place, I am just using "INTERNET MARKETING" as an example to show what can be done in any niche itself, with sub niches.



But I do understand that this is not effective for everyone, some will find that a waste of time, but some will be very successful with this, if they were to understand the concept itself.




Yup, use a different keyphrase, and even as mentioned, how do keyphrases become popular to begin with? Effective marketing.


An effective marketer could take that keyphrase, market the heck out of it and turn it into a keyword that churns in tons of searches everyday, if they knew how.


I guess my idea is more targeted at those who have a bit more experience with marketing, but none the less, it is STILL up to the marketer to make their efforts get results. Even if that means inventing a keyword (as some have done through branding), or helping a keyword (marketing it so that people become aware of it more).




On EzineArticles, I would consider that to be untapped, as it has one guy sitting there competing with himself. On google some have said there is no one searching for that ONE SPECIFIC (broken record) keyword, then that too is rather untapped.


Untapped to me, means it's not heavily flooded, and that you can WIN in that niche, and also means to me, that you can RANK in that niche.


That is what untapped would mean to me. Maybe to you, if you want to pull out the dictionary, and say it's a virgin niche that no one is competing in yet, fine, but to me, this competition might as well be so low that I would say no one is yet competing.


If you have to compete with yourself, you can bet that NO ONE is competing then. LOL


And yes, your advice is welcome, for finding lower competing keywords, however that kind of thing is already suggested all over the place on this forum, or at least is pretty well known to do.


My idea, although it may sound pretty useless and out there, pushes people to do the unthinkable, such as literally making a keyword be searched in the first place, literally being the pioneer who gets people to start searching for it, and literally being the pioneer who practically creates an online empire from something so simple: a keyword which seemed to be a dud.


I believe that is possible, as people are CONSTANTLY doing that DAILY. They are creating products, branding them, and creating new keywords which people will then search for. They are then marketing these products like hell, and are creating something from nothing.


This may seem like nothing too right now, but as mentioned, that is ENTIRELY up to the marketer at hand on how they want to handle this, and how they want to make something of this.


Many may fail, but as mentioned, my post isn't directed at people who want to sit here and say how much this method fails. My post is not directed at people who find this to be too much work, or for those who simply find it too damn confusing.


My post isn't even directed at those who simply don't believe in it.

It's only directed at those who see the potential in potentially "risky" things.

He is not targeting Banner Advertising Success .... Maybe view the keywords and you will see what he is trying to target..

James

Yup, people are really not getting the idea, but THEY WILL GET IT eventually.


Every single sub-niche out there was once small and NEVER MATTERED. There was once a time when no one knew what blogs were, or what twitter was. Likewise, there was once a time when article marketing itself wasn't known, and wasn't even a popular method for making money online!!!


FRESH THINGS are coming out all the time, and this is one area where THE RIGHT INTELLIGENT PERSON, could really make something of it.


EVERYTHING STARTS SOMEWHERE, and it seems the people here want to start with something which is already going big, because they are FOLLOWERS, not LEADERS!


I still stand by my ideas, that this could be made into a product, someone could launch a product off of this idea and really make this niche into something. Someone could also promote an already existing product from this niche.


Apparently they can also head over to Google and EASILY get ranked, since the competition is low there too!


Consider this:


SO if people are not searching for this on google, they aren't fully aware of it yet. If the views on EZA are not as high as the weight loss niche gets, it's because PEOPLE DON'T KNOW.



They won't know unless you take action now and get the word out!



It just means that the marketers in the niche really SUCK and don't know what they are doing. But there are people searching for it, and there are people wanting to know about it, including our very OWN WARRIORS.


If our warriors want to learn it and know about it, they are just HUMAN BEINGS, regular human beings! If they want to learn, that MUST MEAN other human beings want to know about it too!

It's not just about his competition on EZA now, this is a rather UNTAPPED niche! ESPECIALLY WITH EZA.

As for the way my posts look in here, I am really excited about this idea, and I hope that I can inspire SOMEONE to be as excited and take some action.


It's not everyone's cup of tea, and I still stand by what I said.


(And if you are unaware of my other posts on here, or how I post in the first place, why the heck do I have to keep answering to you, just because you don't like the way I roll?)

Please tell me you understand this? Honestly am I speaking jibberish, or are my ideas just really that stupid that everyone is arguing here?


Maybe I don't get it, or maybe I am not capable of clearly laying out what I mean into words that others can comprehend.

You might want to check those dates again - by going to his author bio. He submits multiple articles just about every day. The idea here is a place to start - but before jumping in to try to outdo someone - there are more steps to take to see if it makes sense or not...like what the google competition is and whether anyone is looking for that term. If someone does a google search for "marketing forums" - are they looking for articles? or for forums?

That first author mentioned by the OP has over 3700 articles on EZA - and 3500 of them are in IM.

The problem with this thread is that the OP is so convinced this is a new, never before discovered gem that she has projected results without testing them. EZA is a great place to research - but you need to do the full research to know if it's worth while going after a certain niche in EZA.

EZA ranking doesn't always translate to google ranking. A google search for the banner advertising term doesn't yield any of the EZA articles on the first or second page of results. I didn't look further than that.

I personally do not deal in the money making niche/ make money online niche.

BUT I KNOW for a fact that there is someone or rather on this forum who will get what I am saying and implement it. It doesn't apply to me, and I understand that this is still an idea, and I will agree that it's an idea.


I also have mentioned that it's a risky idea. I definitely would say 100% that it's risky, because it's asking people to build a niche up from the ground, one brick at a time. That's not something just anyone can accomplish easily, and few actually do accomplish it perhaps. But that doesn't make it impossible altogether.


It's not asking people to go in with what already is known to work, and it's not asking people to play it safe and sit around in the really big niches trying to bottom feed off of the little bit of traffic that is left after their competition takes it all, because as mentioned, there can only be #1.


So why not be the #1 in something you build? Why not be the #1 in something you create. That is what I am truly saying here: create something, and don't reinvent the wheel, but update it!


Will I implement this in other ways? Definitely, just not in the internet marketing niche.


Have I tried something like this before? Yes and No. I have played it safe mostly, and haven't really done something as risky sounding as this before, but it's my idea, so what does that tell you?


It should tell you that this is something which I am about to do, and something which I have been thinking about, since I am taking the time to respond here and try and get others to see exactly what I mean here.

Until recently, I wasn't even aware of the ex-back niche. It's only from the last year and a half that I even became aware of the fact that there was such a product, or that there were products online geared towards helping people understand their relationship issues.


That being said, how did I come to know? Well a marketer. People don't know unless you tell them. People also don't know what they need, unless you tell them. The other people who know what they need and search for that on google, know that because they were also told such a thing exists out there.


But unless they know otherwise, they wouldn't search for it, right? Same thing going on with these sub-niches. Potentially no one knows about these keywords, and no one gives a damn about these sub-niches.


But that is the fault of whoever is marketing it. The whole point of marketing something is to make it known, get the word out about it. Otherwise why is someone marketing in the first place?


Therefore, part of what I am suggesting/asking here is that a warrior makes something of these sub-niches, and capitalizes on it in the end, because as of right now it may seem like they are nothing, and useless, but every idea started that way, and in the end someone capitalized somewhere.


Look at the guy who made post it notes. He was trying to make something that would stick forever, pretty much, and ended up with crappy glue that barely stuck to anything.


But then the idea came for the post it notes, since the glue was malleable, it could be attached and removed to things, and post it notes were born.


But the inventor thought that was a stupid idea at first. Kitty litter has a similar story too, it was originally intended for something else, a so called "failed" product.


And neither of these things were well known, but became known, because someone marketed the hell out of that. Now kitty litter is searched online, so is post-it. Now they are their own keywords.


BUT ONLY with the efforts of effective marketers did they ever get to that stage.


NOW, I am not asking people to invent glue or invent kitty litter. I am showing them the glue and kitty litter, and am now asking them to market that.


Sure it may sound like it stinks, but at the end of the day, as mentioned, this post is not intended for those who are afraid to take risks. It's not meant for newbies, or those who want to play it safe with things that "ALREADY" work.


Well EZA is a tool, yes. I am suggesting that they use EZA as a tool for these subniches, since EZA has proven in the past that it can generate a lot of traffic (when in the right hands).


Consider a year and a half ago, the ex back niche was not heavily populated on EZA. So what happened then? Well new people came with NEW products that are not magic of making up, and then this sort of snowballed down, until it literally became heavily populated with competition.


People took action, they created something, and now that sub-niche is HUGE on EZA, and is generating MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF TRAFFIC.


So once again, it's just a tool, and people have used it as a tool in the ex back niche, and every other niche on there. What I am saying now is for people to do the same thing they did in the ex back sub niche (conflict niche) because that IS a sub niche- only in other niches.


EZA would just be a start. They can also work on getting ranked for keywords on google, and yes, some of the keywords may stink for now, but if they continue to stink, that is only the fault of the marketer at hand.


Marketers make things known, and if a marketer can't do that, why the heck are they trying to market then?

It is funny how many do not get this, even those that are proclaimed article marketers ... It is so simple, but many are blinded by the $$$$$ which is what most marketers ever think about.

It is amazing how so many people can look at something so valuable the wrong way ....

James

He is not making any money "directly" from EZA... I can almost bet that.. That is not the point though, as I said a few post up marketers always look at the $$$$$$ and when they do they never ever and never will see the entire playing field....

Just Amazing!!

James

to me this thread appears to have descended into something along the lines of "i know something you dont know"...

Exactly, people are taking this far too personal now? When it isn't even personal to begin with. It's just a topic open for discussion, and now people are thinking that they are being insulted.


Another thing I have learned, is that if someone doesn't get a concept right away, they eventually will. Just not from me. They will learn it another way, through another means, but they will eventually get it.


I have struggled too at times with some concepts and I just didn't get it, and thought the person telling me the things was wrong, and this and that, but I understand a lot now, because I did eventually come to know what they were talking about through other means.

Allen, I'm THIS close to reporting this thread as a blatant pre promotional
stunt.

I must be slipping because I should have picked this up sooner.

"Banner advertising success" is not the niche. This guy has 3774 articles on EZA and he is following a pattern.

The 4 sections he posts most often in are Banner Advertising, PPC-Marketing, SEO, and Traffic Building. These are all paid methods of getting traffic. Click on his author name and check out his articles. Each category has article after article with similar titles based on the category he is in.

His product is about driving traffic and his articles are targeted to people who are already interested in driving traffic-banner advertisers, PPC marketers, people interested in traffic building.

He has been steadily submitting articles on Ezinearticles for about a year, his 1st article was on March 30th 2009.

His articles have created 135,270 views in a years time. All of these views are from people who pre-qualified themselves by having an interest in what his product can solve.

He isn't interested in quantity of views per article, he wants quality views that wind up subscribing to his list. Even a 10% conversion rate on his squeeze page would mean he has almost 14000 people interested in driving traffic subscribed to his list that his product solves.

Take a look at this article by him:

SEO Ranking Strategy - Secrets to Long Tail Keyword Success

In a world of IM hares running themselves ragged for highly searched terms, this tortoise is is surfing the long tail buyer keywords and probably winning the race.

James, please stop blowing smoke up my ass or I'll have to get out the
enema bag.

Well, I spotted something about six months ago that I haven't seen anybody else doing. You could get the same idea from looking at what that person is doing on EZA, (even though he isn't doing it, or is doing it badly)! It has nothing to do with banner advertising so I'd guess you haven't spotted it yourself! Hmm, self proclaimed?

How about NO? This same thing happened in another thread of mine, but I still have not made a WSO. People are just saying this because they don't understand my intentions, because they are not agreeing with my idea to begin with.


Things are being thrown in here, against me, and others, which is not fair. It's just an idea, and I can't believe how personal people are making this!

If that is really true, KINDLY, KINDLY, please do share it from your point of view, as my point of view is NOT registering well with people. Maybe if they hear it explained in a different way they can get it too, so please help them see what I am trying to say here?

Okay, I get it.

Problem...BIG problem.

You can't create demand.

You can do all the pushing in the world that you want, but if the demand
isn't there, you're pushing at a brick wall that isn't going to budge.

Me? I'd rather concentrate my efforts on where I know the money is and
not worry about being first or last or whatever.

In the niches where there is enough demand, there are enough prospects
and customers for anybody who practices basic 101 marketing.

Again...there is nothing new here.

That's ridiculous. If you read through the long explanations by the OP you'll notice the "advice" has changed quite a bit through the thread.

The criticism is because the info that started this thread is incomplete and in parts incorrect. There is no point to experienced marketers coming into a thread and praising it - when the assumptions are wrong. If an OP has to argue a point over and over and change the argument as it goes on - that should tell you something may not be right.

The initial post had errors of assumption in it - such as claiming to have found an easy niche to rank in and claims that the author in that niche submitted infrequent articles. Also advice that you should find a keyword phrase and "make it popular" have been mentioned by the OP several times.

The author in question submits 500 articles a month - every month. He has a full funnel set up and the article marketing is only a small part of it. I think he could improve on it - but he probably makes decent money with his efforts as he is selling his own product - has 3000+ articles "published" to establish credibility - has multiple sign up pages and spends quite a bit on PPC ads.

Point is - instead of defending an "idea" - it's smart to look deeper to see if there is anything to it or not. Otherwise you can waste a lot of time and effort trying to prove something that is only a theory.

Effective niche and keyword research is about finding what is popularly searched for and exploiting it - not about finding an obscure phrase and making people want to look for it. That is basic - and it doesn't change.

kay

EDIT: With all that said - there's nothing at all wrong with someone posting what they've found and what they think may have potential. It's great because it generates discussion. However, defending the theory in spite of evidence to the contrary isn't the way to go.
