Hi fellow WAer's,

Last evening I took a look at Jay's niche video on the homepage again. I have been thinking about his technique for the past week. So, I said alright Wes, lets do this and see what we can come up with.

I made a pot of coffee and started digging. I followed his technique to the letter and came up with some really amazing results. Nine hours later( Yeah, it took some time) I have what I believe I can build a very powerful and lucrative campaign on.

Here's a brief overview of what I discovered.

I found what appears to be a super hungry high end niche that is perpetual rather than seasonal.

Five affiliate programs that pay between 8-12% on products ranging from $500 up wards to $10,000.

3 keyword phrases that pull in over 4000 searches a month each, with less than 400 sites quoted, with an average of 250 hits per keyword, an article power of 7 and above, with a PPC competition rate hovering around 7.5. Google's adwords keyword tool backed up the results in WA's keyword tool, so I felt I had found consistency.

Armed with this I jumped over to the Google and did a quick search again with the keyword phrase I chose to use for my URL and this is what I found on one page one results.

Organic 

#1 PR 5/10 competition

#2 PR  3/10 competition

#3 PR  6/10  .org/info

#4 PR  4/10 .com/info/ hidden competition

#5 PR  3/10 competition

#6 PR  4/10 competition

#7 PR  3/10 competition

#8 PR  4/10 competition

#9 PR 2/10 Competition

#10 Wikipedia 

No competition over 5/10 on the PR, which I am assuming is beatable.

Sponsored ads battling it out < the page was literally  covered with them.

If I am reading this right a well planned professional SEO article marketing campaign using the blog and funnel technique could quite possibly rake in major bank, and dominate this hungry niche.

I did some math and found with a 1in 10 conversion rate at $200 commission per sale. I will have reached my goal of $5000 a month .

I know I like to think big, but why not, its not any harder than thinking small. Besides, if nothing else at least I will have leg two started on my IM table and ton more experience and knowledge under my belt.

Man, do I have a work load ahead of me  :)

Happy marketing,

Wes
