The actual niche of Internet marketing, www.impacts-popup.comor making money online is huge. It also has a ton of competition. Still, in the five years that I have been in this niche, I have managed to make a very nice income. I don't make the kind of money like a John Reese or a Mike Filsaime, but I do well enough. I'm certainly not starving. So how do I do it? How do I go up against these giants and so many others and make a six figure income?



Part of the answer is having good products at reasonable prices that people can actually use. Another part of the reason is constant advertising and promotion. Not a day goes by where I am not out there making a name for myself, whether it be with writing articles, placing ads, participating in forums, or whatever. I am always doing something. Another part of the reason is pure persistence. I have never been one to give up on doing anything. So even during the hard times...and believe me I had them...I still did what I needed to do on a daily basis. The word quit was never in my vocabulary. As a result, I conquered a very hard to crack niche.

Now, what about the smaller niches with less competition? Well, they are much easier to crack. Some you can crack literally by putting up a site. Now don't get me wrong, you're probably not going to make a fortune in these tiny niches, but...what if you were to tackle several of them? I mean, why not? www.free-ad-system.com They're not going to be hard to break into and the work involved, relatively speaking, isn't going to be so much that it's going to take up a great deal of your time. So tackling three, four, even five of these tiny niches shouldn't be too much trouble.

My point is this. You can make a nice living on the Internet with a large competitive niche or a few tiny non competitive niches. It basically comes down to YOUR choice.

I decided to tackle them both.

My honest wish is that I had started my online business about 15 years ago when the internet was just getting popular. Like most I didn't. When I did make the decision to start an online business, and I was really new to home internet marketing strategies, I looked at a number of websites for the keywords I had chosen. I remember the first time I spied on my competition. The site had over a thousand links. I had about 10. I thought to myself, how am I ever going to get this many? The competition is tough! Sites with pr four and pr five on page one of Google are so far ahead of me, I will never be able to make up this lost time.

I spent the next few months focusing on my linking strategies along with directory submissions. Traffic continued to increase until all of a sudden, I could not seem to find any higher pr sites to link to. I had pretty much run into most of the relative web sites. Many of them required a pr four or higher. For more detail go to: www.the-30-minute-marketing-miracle.com.Most ignored my requests to be a link partner. This was probably because of the number of requests they receive. I did not want to link to the pr zero sites any more because I realized that this was not going to help my site when I reciprocate.

Then I submitted the five new ones in one week. Within a week my web page went from about page five and six to page one and two in MSN. It also climbed dramatically in Google for one relatively low traffic keyword phrase. Web page visits increased immediately by one hundred or so. The really cool thing about the search engine pages that my web site was showing up for on page one and two, is that the articles are also showing up on page one and two. So, surfers are clicking on my main web page by clicking on my web page link, and if they don't do that, they would also see and click on the article links showing up on the same page.
