My Journey to Making $6,000 a Month in 365 Days

Amazing Amazon

12th June 2007

Well it certainly seems that I am in a very productive state of mind today, because I just came up with another good way to look for profitable niches. If you’re ever stuck and want to see what you can possibly make a website about — or maybe even an info product — one of the simplest thing to do is go to www.amazon.com and browse their books section to see what’s available and what’s hot. I pretty much found a minor goldmine in their health and family section which contains, among other things, plenty of self-help book.

This method has three important advantages.

Firstly, it gives you some excellent ideas on the different subjects that you can write about.

Secondly and most importantly, it tells you whether there is demand for such products already. Remember that authors (just like everybody) else want to make money with their products, which means that they would not have bothered with writing a self-help book if they did not think there would be demand for it.

Thirdly, if you do decide to work in this niche and want to get your hands on some quality information - especially if you want to develop your own info product - then you already have your research done for you. Simply buy the printed book and see if you can’t integrate its contents into your own info product. Mind you, I’m not advocating plagiarism, but there is nothing wrong with doing proper research for your product.
