    I am wondering if you can recommend a publisher ad program for me. Here is a description of how I am. I am looking to buy a dedicated server from managed.com, but as a 13 year old, I have no money. I need an ad program that can gvie me great revenue, with not many clicks, as I don't have enough time to tell people to click my ads ,and most people wont click a banner, although some of my visitors do on bluefusionx.com . Also, I am only on the internet on weekends which is another obstacle. Any help ?

    Telling people to click on the links is a violation of the TOS.

    Finding niches with good profit.

    -CJ EPCs - view the full advertiser list and sort by EPC, search from the top down and don't be afraid to sort different ways and dig around. Use your head when looking at this data. (Hint, watch for big differences in 7 day EPC vs. 3 month EPC)
    Remember EPC is figured as earnings per click x 100, so $138 EPC is earning the affiliates an average of $1.38 per click.

    -Overture Bids - high bids = high paying niches (usually)


    How competitive is this niche?

    -Number of pages in the SE on specific phrases. (Do some keyword research first)
    -Overall bid prices at overture. ($3 for the top 3 spots could just be some er, challenged bidders. Look at the full range from positions 1 through 10, 20 or 30.)
    -Top 10, 20 and 30 PRs on Google

    Backtrack the competition.
    For some reason, many affiliates like to link everything they do, to everything else they do. So, you can often see lucrative stuff being linked to other lucrative stuff. Ummm, don't do this with your own stuff for various reasons. This is one of them.
    Use your head.

    -Electronics - Highly competitive industry with low margins. Sales are usually bigger ticket items not purchased often. (Small commission on a purchase that is researched quite a bit before a buy is finally made.)
    -Consumables - they are consumed (rocket science, eh?) and must be purchased again. Look for programs with recurring/residual commissions here.
    -Services - often have the bigger margins which = bigger commissions. (No product, fewer employees, no shipping, etc etc.)

    Figure it out.
    Top 100 searches. What's hot? What are the new topics coming out?
    What will people buy that are searching on these topics?
    What kind of ideas can I extrapolate here?

    Thinking about the future.
    This takes some serious contemplation, sometimes with no result. Usually no result for now, anyway. Think great dividends for being first, possibly pioneering a niche.


    -Look at the top 100 today. What differences do you see from six months or a year ago? What trends do you see?
    -What technologies are up and coming? What do you think will be the next thing to take off? The first ones in a hot niche are usually better off than the rest that follow.
    -Use your head. Can't emphasize this enough.
