would it be worth the time to start a clickbank quit smoking website? or is the competition way to high for keywords? any other cons?
Clickbank or not - the competition in this industry is too high. Although If you can create an amazing quality product, get super affiliates and rank your pages in the top 3 on Google - then it's worth it!
^^^ What he said. There has been many attempts to have a quit smoking product on CB. However, the competition is insane from this niche. I'm not saying it's not possible, but you'd really need to have something of exceptional quality, and have a list of good affiliates which will be willing to promote this product. From what I've seen, most affiliated don't even touch this niche.
I agree with the guys, really difficult niche to be part of. You will be against some big big players.
Hemorrhoids is also equally competitive niche. Unless otherwise you have proved that your product is unique and different from others, you can't succeed.
I am a doctor, No doubt I can elaborate Hemorrhoids much more than a webmaster. But main issue remains that I am not familiar with marketing
Any health related niche is competetive.. go with something you enjoy so then you won't have a problem creating content it won't be pulling teeth,,
I have tried twice and had no luck getting ranked for and of the smoking keywords. Seams that main stream health and government sites are the big winners there. It has been a while and I would guess it is still worth a try. Could be VERY profitable.
Go for micro niches. Any time your going for any health niche the competition is going to be crazy hard.
Particularly the potential customers in this niche aren't looking for $50 ebooks to downlond, that's the truth.
Then what actually they are looking for braolex ? I mean to say, What should be the best price for such niche ebooks? Please reply
If you have a different approach to help people quit smoking other than all the generic ways, then you can attack the market. Just because it is saturated doesn't mean you cannot make money from it.
aah! alright. I will go medically, but how to lose 10 pounds in 10 days would not be title of my book. I am currently deciding the price Approx idea and %age affiliate comission. 80 pages ebook 15 videos What should be the price?
People are mostly looking for faster aids when it comes to quitting smoking. If you've been a smoker you might well know how hard it is to quit nicotine all together and any form of nicotine such as nicotine gum, inhalers, patches, oral tobacco or the e-cigarettes are much more effective and in demand. I happen to be promoting this niche and have promoted clickbank ebooks heavily in the past with ZERO results. When people are going through a nicotine withdrawal can't even read, believe me I've been there. They don't need a $50 ebook, let's be frank... E-cigarettes tend to sell very well, and the commission are pretty high. (i'm mainly promoting Green Smoke) The average purchase is $200 and your commission is $40 (20%) I've got a list of quit smoking books in my signature... They're written by recognised gurus world-wide in the addictions field... and their price is nowhere near $50. just sayin'
average price for a keyword bid is $2. Conversion rate is 1/300 for targeted traffic. So I wouldn't begin in such a niche.
Definitely not something to start in. You'll need a ton of expertise and resources to spend to make it worth it. But if there is so much competition, then its a big pie and you can get your piece. If you decide to pursue it at a starting level you'll want to do direct marketing such as posting in stop-smoking forums or other ways of appealing directly to potential buyers instead of fighting in the SEO/PPC battles.
