I will step through the steps I take to find the winners by starting off with a generic product niche "table". For this set of steps you will need access to 'Micro Niche Finder'
http://www.micronichefinder.com/
Step 1
Using Micro Niche Finder I run a query with "Table" as the keyword. I then use the check filtered results function and delete all keywords with more then 30,000 searches and less then 600 searches/month. I then go through and get rid of anything that doesn't have a semantic relationship with the main keyword phrase.
Step 2
I check the remaining results then run the 'Get Checked S.O.C' function. When this is complete I delete anything that has a S.O.C > 50 (i.e. non green). I end up with
"
kitchen table sets
pub table sets
glass top dining tables
glass dining tables
contemporary dining table
square dining tables
dinning room tables
contemporary dining tables
living room table
dinning room table
dining round table
dining tables round
"
Of course your results can vary based on google datacenters and etc. But for the most part you will get what I have shown here.
This is how I look for micro niche using Micro Niche Finder. However if you are short on budget, you could try using Google Keyword Tool. The only problem is you will have difficulty getting the SOC,(Strength of competition).
MNF is a great tool, if you want to succeed in the IM world, this is the kind of software that you should invest in.

One of the mistakes that the IM newbies always target general keywords. General enough that it is almost impossible to dominate them. In order to dominate in niche market, newbie MUST target long tail keyword. What do I mean by long tail keyword?
Take for example a sport niche. This niche is way too big to dominate, you probably won't able to dominate this niche if you target just niche. There are 810,000,000 results for this keyword if you Google this keyword. Now try, tennis. Search result drop to 160,000,000 results. Still way too big for newbie i guess. To dominate the tennis niche. I would recommend target keyword like this, "Tennis serve technique". Try google the keyword and see the number of results. 472,000 results. You see what am I trying to present to you?
If you have even longer keyword, you could have "Right handed tennis serve technique". Just beware not to go too long for the keyword. The longer your keyword goes meaning less competition; this also means that there are less traffic to be generated. Just don't target "Right handed tennis serve technique for elderly woman". You could dominate this easily, but it is not effective since there are only a hand full of searches for elders who are interested in tennis.
Don't worry if you are not sure you are doing the right thing. Rule of thumb. Never try to dominate a niche with more than 500,000 search results, else you will end up in disappointment. Master keyword research and you shall succeed in the IM field.
Good luck to all my readers and happy SEO'ing.

Search Engine Optimization aka SEO is one of the great way to bring organic traffics to your website. Search engine optimization is an important tool in positioning the website in the popular search engines such as Yahoo, MSN, and Google. It allows the website to be accessible to Internet users and helps generate more visitor traffic. What's more, these kind of traffic is FOC!
SEO divided into two section, on page SEO and off page SEO. I'll explain on the on page SEO first. This form of SEO consist of the main keyword as well as the description and tags. Ideally you should have a unique title for each page on your site, as pages with identical titles tend to be treated as “duplicates” by Google (the search engine will only display one of the pages in its results, indexing the duplicates as “supplemental results.”)
I love to give example.. For example,
|
<html>
<head>
<tittle> Johnny Kitchenware – Buy Kitchenware, Kitchenware Prices </tittle>
|
You see how I set the tittle? Bear in mind that I made up the above tittle code. In your case, you should have know better which keyword to put in. Get your keyword ideas from Google KeywordTool.
Mistakes that newbie always make.
- Leaving "Untitle" tag in the tittle.
- Title have nothing to do with the content. example: Tittle: Great Weight Loss News, Content: Tips of designing your own landing page.
- Keyword Stuffing. 2- 3 keywords is recommended for the tittle.
- Tittle too long. Normally search engine only will show the first 60 characters.
Make good use of the meta description. Meta descriptions should summarize accurately the page’s content, and you should avoid writing descriptions that are unrelated to the content of the page. Same as page tittle, meta description is preferably different for each page. Descriptions should usually be less than 160 characters.
Improve URL structure. Make your URL search engine friendly. Create URL with keywords in it. For example, if you are doing weight loss blogging. would recommend the URL be http://www.your-weight-loss-site.com/weight-loss.html. Did you notice that I leave (-) between words. This method is proven more SE friendly.
Stay tune for part 2.

You probably have lots of PLR eats up your HDD space accumulating e-dust. I was in the same exact situation with over 500GB of PLR, from article to video, you name it, I have it.
What can you do with these PLR? Sell them? Yeah, you can sell them.. but who is going to buy them? Honestly, most PLR sucks… the quality is so bad that the return rate is kindda high. You will prolly get 2-3 returns in 10 sales. The rest of the 7 buyers are too darn lazy to request for a refund.
If you are selling a product, package these PLR as your bonuses.
You can sell PLR, but package them in a "UNIQUE" way. So that your product looks 'different' from other people who are selling the same product as yours. Take for example a tattoo PLR. Do you think you are going to sell the original PLR like hot cakes? Nah, I don't think so. What if you package them with a video tutorial? Guide them step by step on designing a tattoo, taking care of the tattoo or even tattoo themselves? Definitely you win big time against those lazy ass. You know what, with packaged PLR product you can sell at higher price. A typical eBook sells for $7-$17, Audio + eBook sells for $24-$34, Video + Audio + eBook sell for $39 ++. So meaning that, the more you package them the higher price you are selling.
What about PLR articles? The PLR articles you bought already categorized, am I right? Why not make good use of those articles as E-mail course? Besides that, you could rewrite these articles and submit to article directory to bring traffic to your sites.
I heard someone says, " I sucks at writing!" Oh yeah, so do I. As you can see, I don't write good English. Outsource these job! You want something cheap and good? Go to Micro Workers. You pay as low as $0.40 for article rewrite.
Last but not least, you can break apart the PLR eBook, and start your own e-course!
Summarized of what can be done with PLR.
- Package with your own product.
- Package with other PLR, example audio, video, e-course.
- Re-write article and submit to article directory.
- Break apart the PLR and turn it into e-course.
