Summary
- I choose niches like hobbies and outdoor goods for affiliate marketing because there's still money to be made there. If you're not in these areas, you might need to reconsider your options.
- Look for opportunities in specific niches such as woodworking tools or canoe paddles. Smaller blogs and websites can still rank well, even with a lower Domain Rating (DR).
- For instance, sites like American Rotary and others with DR as low as 34 and 50 are ranking well in specific niches.
- Consider niches like freeze dryers; sites like Harvest Right and homesteadingfamily.com are doing well with a DR of around 45.
- Even though big sites like Google Shopping and Reddit exist, smaller niche sites can still find opportunities.
- If big media sites like Forbes are covering your niche, you may need to adjust your strategy from just affiliate marketing.

How To Take Action
I would suggest focusing on a specific niche you are passionate about or interested in. There is still money to be made in hobbies and outdoor goods. Smaller niches like woodworking tools or canoe paddles offer opportunities for growth, even with smaller websites. Look for areas where big sites aren't dominating, allowing you to compete with lower Domain Ratings.
A good way of doing this is by creating content tailored to these niche topics. For example, you could start a blog or a YouTube channel focusing on reviews or how-to guides for these products. This helps build authority and trust with your audience.
Another strategy is to explore niches such as freeze dryers. Websites with a Domain Rating of around 45 are still doing well here. You could write insightful articles or create engaging content about these products. This increases your visibility and attracts an audience interested in niche products.
If you notice big sites like Forbes covering your niche, it may be time to adjust your strategy. Consider shifting away from simple affiliate marketing. You could explore collaborations or diversify your income streams through ads or product creation.
By sticking to these low-cost strategies and focusing on specific, untapped niches, you can build a successful small business or personal brand. Remember, consistency and genuine passion for your niche will help drive your growth.
