Working in 3 niches vs. 1 niche

    I'm not quite sure about any of this, so, well, time for a question :D

    Would working in 3 niches (9-15 articles a day) be a bit more beneficial in comparison to 1 niche (3-5 articles a day)? I'm looking to be more productive here, and start sending more articles out each day instead of 1 every other day

    It's always good to have everything spread out evenly, as opposed to putting all your eggs in one basket. Then again, it also depends on your niche. I'd rather be in one niche that is profiting like mad then 3 niches that are doing ok.

    My advice - Research, research, and when you think you're done doing research, research some more. Trust me, it's well-worth it in the end. You'll be thanking yourself for the time you spent up front when a niche isn't all you thought it was cracked up to be. It's better to find out in the research stage that a niche isn't worth getting into, rather than when you begin to invest time and money, only to find out it's garbage. You can make back money, but you can't get back your time.

    When you say research, would you recommend putting up about 15-20 articles as 'research'? The product I chose to promote is hanging around 20-25 gravity and appeared early June. I know it has sold for at least 25 people, so that's something good (I hope).

    Define research, is what I'm saying. Thanks for your input!

    Sorry, I guess after re-reading my reply, I was a bit vague.

    Basically, you need to do your keyword research. Research long-tail keywords for a specific niche. Write your articles using those long-tail keywords as your title. Make sure those keywords have a decent search volume and low competition. This all takes time, but like I said, damn worth it in the long run....

    I'm not sure there's a right answer to this question. Part of me thinks that it is best to just concentrate on one thing and go all out with it. Learn everything about it so you can dominate that one thing. Then all of your work is building towards one goal. BUT I think the problem with that philosophy is... what if you choose the wrong thing? :)

    It's up to you basically. Personally I'd say 3 niches simultaneously, just for diversifying purposes. You don't want to spend all your time on something that might not make any or little sales, and then your income would be way sporadic and random - and unpredictable.

    There's Two Niches That You can Completely Concentrate on [off the top of my head]

    Make Money Online
    and SEO

    You can create consistent income on those but you have to put in a concious effort to succeed.

    You have to diversify for all the "smaller niches" - so yeah i'd do that too. I plan on diversifying tremendously so that I can have consistent profits in the long-haul!

    I would say try out all 3 niches, find out which one works the best and then focus on that one niche.
    Once that good niche is running comfortably on autopilot, look for another 3 niches and start the process over again.

    It's up to you what you want to do.

    I think both options would work.

    I would go for 1 niche, write about 20-30 articles, then go to the next niche.

    most of it depends on what sort of content you are producing ... if you are coming up with crapy content , then don't bother writing 20 or 40 articles they will never produce substaintial traffic .. if you can manage to write 8 to 10 good quality article which compel the reader to see what you have in store then that is sufficient .... if you can manage then go for 4 or 6 niches if you can't then stick to only 1, my 2 cents .

    1 good site will generally make a lot more then 3 crappy sites, although the niche will be a factor.

    But if he invests the time and makes 3 good sites.

    After reading your question again it seems like you're wondering if you're going to make more money off 3 times as much work as the other option... like, DUH.

    If you wrote 15 articles a day for one single product that would work as well.

    Not only would I like to have three niches, but I'd like to have those three niches on three different networks, like one each on clickbank, ebay and cj. That way it would be hard to bring my whole business down.
