What are some really competitive/saturated markets with high paying Adsense clicks, and isn't really aimed at a tech-savvy audience? You're help is much appreciate
Gambling is VERY saturated. Poker especially. You will make more from affiliates than adsense as referring to gambling sites and getting people to gamble there will earn you a lot of $$$.
I am totally on agreement with Platefish on this one. You could earn a lot by referring users to poker and casino sites. The hotter niches in AdSense are - Exotic Cars - Credit Cards - Loans and Mortgages - Financial (Generally) - Medicine and Medicals However, those high-paying niches require sufficient knowledge and it is recommended that you write about things you know and love even if it pays much lower.
You shouldn't try to compete with very competitive keywords. It may take you a total of 1000 hours to have some success in getting traffic, however, if you focused on some more generalized and less competitive niches and make 10 sites with 100 hours of work in each one, I believe you would get much better results. Different people prefer different ways and I am just sharing my opinion. I hope I have helped.
i very much agree with you GameOver, i think these days, you would make more money per number of hour spent on other niches than competing with very saturated keywords. based on experience, i get more money on topics where fewer people have generated content about it. (or maybe because im not very good in SEO as compared to others) good luck!
Making money online and the weight loss niche are quite saturated as well. There are loads to choose from!
weight loss is bad, yeah. Skin remedies are getting really saturated as well. But I think there are other areas in medical treatments (non surgical) that arent very saturated yet.
