    Question for all?
    Does anyone do well outside the Internet Marketing niche?
    I know lots of people make money selling Internet Marketing, but how many do well using their strategies outside the IM niche?
    It seems to me that if everyone is selling IM, sooner or later the well runs dry.
    Anyone successful in other niches?

    Are you referring to Affiliate programs only? Or it includes CPA e.g.

    Outside of the IM niche is very lucrative if you pick the right niches. Hobbies, arts & crafts, urgent and embarrassing problems, collectibles and more make great niches. Usually much less people marketing in the space too.

    IM is filled with wanabee marketers marketing to other wanabee marketers.

    As Stuart said, plenty of money in other niches - probably a whole lot more than in IM, but you may need to do more research and consider creating your own products. That, perhaps, is why so many get stuck in the endless IM loop. I'm not sure it's going to run dry anytime soon, but it's a little tedious at times. Much more fun to be had elsewhere, especially if you go for niches where you're actually interested in what you're promoting!

    1. IM
    2. Weight Loss
    3. Dating

    3 most popular niches, with IM being the most liquid one.

    Who doesn't want extra cash in their pocket? haha

    You can't sell internet marketing. It's a how, not a what.

    Aside from I.M Health is a big one, Dating Relationships, Weight loss, Sports, Entertainment, People who want to learn another language, Computers, Credit card Debt, Male enhancement, Music (make beats with your computer, learn how to sing) There are many affiliate programs out there you just need to think outside the box.

    Well for languages, I'd suggest going for Spanish :)
