Testing various niches

4 replies
I would like to test a few different niches (totally different markets) I'm going to build a landing page for each and run some ads...

What I was wondering is the best place to host the landing pages. I have hosting and various other domains active but do I register a new domain in a niche I might test and dump or do I get a generic domain and host different landing pages in sub domains or sub folders?

Obviously if a niche starts to work out I'll get a domain and build it up..

I just wondered how others go about this

Thanks

    i have done this myself. i set up subdomains - mydomain.com/myfirstniche

    this way if you find a niche you want to build out further you can incur the costs of domain, building a full site, content, graphics, etc.

    you can also you a tool like lead pages but that would be much more expensive.

    i used OP 2.0 for this process btw. good luck!

      Yeah, leadpages will host the pages for you.

    Thanks for that with OP 2.0 did you have to have a fresh install of Wordpress in each sub folder to run OP

    Also about

    Mydomain.com/niche1
    Mydomain.com/nihe2 etc erc

    Was mydomain just a generic meaningless term in related to any of the niches you were testing? May be like a business name

    Lead pages does seem quite expensive but the sales video looks great. I've been thinking about OP 2.0 though may be I'll have more control
