Many of you may be wondering with a niche mini-site is. A niche mini-site is a website that focuses on a very particular topic and it has only a handful of articles on it. The point of a niche mini-site is to make it quickly and focus on a specific keyword / topic that is very profitable with publishers. When trying to make money this way there are a few steps you need to consider before you start building your website. Keyword Research Before starting your niche mini-site you need to do a bit of research on the niche you are going to focus on. There are many niches out there but it might not be the right choice for you if there is too much competition and the niche doesn’t pay very well. The whole point is to make the website very quickly and then market it and then repeat the process with another website. One great tool for keyword research is SEO Tools. What this allows you to do is search for a keyword you are interested in and see how much traffic it receives. If it doesn’t have enough WordTrackers that have traffic over a 100 daily searches it might not be worth your while. Once you have found your keyword and it has plenty of searches a day you need to check if it pays well. You can do this by going to Spyfu. You take your keyword and you put it in the search at the top and check what the Cost/Click amount is. If this amount is at least a minimum of a $1 a click then it is most likely worth your time. Buy A Domain Name and Hosting It is important that once you’ve picked your niche that you get a proper domain name and hosting for your website. There is nothing worse then seeing a website on one of those free hosting company websites where they advertise all their own stuff on the website. What you need is a catchy domain name that people can remember and that is easy to spell. A good place to get domain names is either NameCheap or GoDaddy. Once you have got that you need to get some hosting for your website as well. A good place I use is HostGator. They have cheap hosting that is reliable. Creating A Website Design/Template This part can be a little tricky if you are not familiar with web designing or programming. If you are then this should be a breeze and you should be able to setup a template that you can use multiple times with different colors for most of your niche mini-sites. If you are unfamiliar on how to do this I recommend possibly purchasing a template or maybe using a blog program like Wordpress. Creating Content Next step after having your website all setup is creating quality content for your mini-site. Do some research on your niche and spend the time to make quality articles. If your articles have no real value to the readers they won’t be very inclined to stay at the website for a long period of time or ever revisit the website. So for this step take your time and do it right. Spell check your articles and get a decent number of articles on your mini-site (7-15 articles should work). Putting Ads On Your Site Once you have created content on your website the next thing you will need to do is add some ads to your mini-site. This is your source of revenue and most likely the reason why you are making this mini-site in the first place. There are many different ways to advertise but probably the easiest one to start with is Google Adsense. It is very easy to signup and it only takes a short period of time to be accepted. All you need to remember is that you follow their policies and guidelines so that they do not shut down your account. Advertising Your Niche Mini-Site This step is very important. If no one knows about your site they will not visit it. You cannot expect to put a website on the Internet and have it automatically become a smash hit. It takes months of SEO and online marketing to generate traffic for your mini-site. Unfortunately with a mini-site you don’t spend that much time working on the site so what you need to do is market your website for a few weeks and just let the site sit and see how the traffic slowly builds with the website. The older the website the more likely it will get traffic because of various factors such as: links to the site, site age, indexed in search engines, etc. When advertising your mini-site there are numerous ways you can do this such as: article submissions, social networking/bookmarking, posting on blogs/forums, link exchanges, etc. Final Step Just wait a few months and hopefully if everything is done correctly money will start coming in. Don’t expect to see money right off the bat because you need traffic before you can generate income. In the meanwhile you can work on creating other mini-sites and do the same process on those sites as well. If you can create a whole group of these mini-site eventually you will get better at the process and start to see the returns you are looking for. So try it out for yourself. Do the research and create yourself a niche mini-site and see how it goes. Remember to not give up and keep at it and eventually you will become very successful making money online!
That's Great Article, Thanks for sharing it... Give thanked for you, Caused You've sharing it with Us ...
Yep, I do something very similar to this, got some very good software here that create a Wordpress blog site 9 pages long in precisely one minute, give or take a couple of seconds either way, utilising 30 different themes for a range of subjects. Adding quality original keyword optimised content takes about half an hour to an hour for each minisite. I carry out keyword research also for the domain names, no sub domains. Often, if helping out another business online, I'll charge for these minisites as a way to send traffic to their own main business websites. This way, they pay for my domain names and hosting, creating a funnel marketing concept to drive traffic and high quality leads straight to them, whilst I retain ownership of the domain itself and each site brings in about $1-5 a day in revenue, from ads etc. With hundreds of minisites, it all adds up without me spending out a penny of my own money. It's a win win situation all round. Everyone benefits. The key thing is speed to set the blogs up in the optimum time possible, quality keyword optimised original content, discovering hot niches and a range of other factors either used together, combined, or singularly in their own right. Some great tips here on this thread, rep added to the OP.
Thanks for the rep. That seems very interesting that you could creat a mini niche website so quickly. How do you create content so quickly for the site? Do mind sharing some of the tricks? Maybe PM me. Would be greatly appreciated. The websites I make usually take a few weeks if I don't work on them non-stop. Agreed. It is very difficult to find a good paying niche. I still haven't found any with huge payouts but I done some decent ones I think. Good luck finding the right niche!
