Next comes the monetization of your website.
Monetization of the website
There are several ways this can be done. You can take the adsense route, go with the affiliate products, use PLR products, or create your own product.
Adsense: You can add adsense blobs to your website and earn a little money, but the money adsense brings in isn’t really much and not worth it in my opinion, if you are looking at the bigger picture.
Affiliate products: Having affiliate products related to your niche on your website is a great way of making money. Go to Clickbank and you will find many products. Look for the ones related to Golf balls, either Golf ball sets or ebooks on the latest golf balls or old ones. I suggest ebooks as they sell better, being digital in nature. Check for the products that are popular and pay at least 50% commission. Try and get more than two products and have them on your website. Another option is to buy PLR products and sell them on your website. You don’t have to write your own ebooks. Having said that, although it is not essential, there is nothing that can match your own product.
Submitting the website
Although, this point does not need to be mentioned, you need to submit your website to the search engines once it is ready.
Website promotion
The crucial thing to any marketing is advertising. Having the greatest site on earth is not going to help one bit, if there is no promotional plan. How will people know that your site even exists or that you have this product up for sale?
There are several methods of advertising. This in itself is another topic for research. There is Adwords or article marketing, and many other ways. If you have no experience with Adwords, stay away from it in the beginning until you learn the pros and cons of Adwords, and until after you have made some money on your website using free methods like article marketing. You need to spend money for Adwords and if you are not experienced, you may end up losing a lot of money. You wouldn’t want that in the beginning.
Write articles and submit them to article directories, like ezine articles and go articles, and make sure you give a link back to your website in the bio box of your article. Submit at least one per week. This way you will have many articles rotating and this increases the chance of attracting more traffic.
You can also join forums and make sensible posts with your link in the signature line. Don’t do blatant advertising in the forums, that will only attract negativity and some forums may even ban you. The main thing about forums is building trust and in the long run this form of advertising works wonders.
This is all there is to the ‘niche marketing’ giant that has been making the rounds on the internet, with its tentacles spread in all corners and scaring the people that don’t know anything about it. Now it is time for you to tackle it. Go on and make money!
