    Hi All,

    I am currently into these few niches and I've already generated 5 sales ever since I started Clickbank 3 months ago. I have created 5 websites to promote these 5 niches.

    1. Astrology/Horoscope (1 Sale)
    2. Gift Ideas (No Sale for clickbank as I focus more on physical products)
    3. Feng Shui (4 Sales)
    4. Bad Breath (No Sale for clickbank as I focus more on physical products)
    5. Stress, Anxiety & Depression (Not yet launched)

    Kindly give me your opinions and perspectives on the above niches or if you all can recommend me other profitable niches? What do you all think is the best niches which are lucrative but not too competitive?

    My goal is to earn at least USD$50 every day. Is this possible with my above niches?

    Well I doubt anyone will give specific answers for niches. If we did, we'd all be out of business. Just really open up your mind about what people would search for on the internet. Maybe they want to get better at something, like a hobby or such, or how to fix things around the home. Get specific products for somewhat widespread problems, with of course low competition in that niche. Healthcare products are somewhat saturated with affiliate marketing in general, so you might want to stay away from them.

    I'd think Feng Shui is a pretty good one, so think along the lines like you did for that. Personally, I'm not turning over a profit yet, but have made 3 sales so far. So I'm not a pro by any means (much rather a rookie still).

    Good Luck!

    That's the kind of thinking that usually leads nowhere, thinking that the sheeple are like yourself and all want, for example, to know their horoscope. I, for one, have no interest.

    Gotta find the niches that the sheeple want.

    IMO Alot of people see Astrology and Horoscopes as scams, because we put them in the same category of palm readers and such. But that's coming from a person who has never clicked on a sponsored link until I started my own PPC advertising.

    I think no. 5 stress/anxiety.. is over competitive - your bids are going to be way high.

    Thanks for all the comments! As you all can see, my best performing niche is Feng Shui and I am always trying to improve on it. However, my sales from my feng shui site is only about $10 each, whereas the just 1 sale i got from my astrology site was $40!! Does this means my astrology site has much better potential than my feng shui site?

    All of my sites have AWeber opt-in and are very content-riched. I also included Reviews for promoting Top 4 E-Book Products on all my sites, i.e you can say that all my sites are review sites too but not exactly so.

    I do not do PPC or Adwords. All my traffic are FREE. I focus strongly on SEO and writing contents/articles to be distributed to article directories and blog directories. I also do some social media marketing on facebook, twitter and mybloglog. I created a few groups on facebook and I automated my twitter to follow friends and have generated more than 6000 followers.

    Nonetheless, my traffic is still very low and my sales are really very erratic. Some days I get very good sales but subsequently I will have to wait 2-3 weeks before another sale comes in. I averaged about 30 hops per day, is this too little to make sales? I have only made 5 sales ever since I started 3 months ago, is this a good progress?

    Nevertheless, I am very confident that if I continue to work hard by supplying more contents and doing good SEO and marketing on Social Media Sites, more sales should come in and my sales should become more consistent too.

    I hope I am on the right track to earning money online. I would like to hear more advises and suggestions from all of you here. Thank you! :)

    There was a guy at flippa who sold an psychic reading site. Basically he sold a few ebooks but made most money doing "psychic readings by email". Clearly a load of BS but people will pay a lot of money for this cr*p"!!!!

    He even said that the readings can be outsourced, lol!

    Horoscopes are good, I've made a few sales myself but it's too irregular..ie you can't get consistent targeted traffic since there's no way to target a buyer against someone browsing for free info. I have a yahoo answers post indexed with google and my hoplink that gets me atleast one sale a month with this niche, try for some similar bum marketing thing maybe in a forum where people are into wicca and things. For consistency, your product should have a clear benefit, provide a solution to an existing problem and well defined objective like xbox repair, forex trading, energy etc. Health is also good but you'd need a bit more experience before you start with those products.

    Me I am interested in feng shui, btw you gave me an idea of a product, so I will buy an ebook on it honestly. Horoscope? Nah, I won't pay for it.
