Your Niche Is Your Business

I see it every day onrepparttar internet, people joining mlm or affiliate programs, getting really excited, posting a few free ads and building their very own web sites.

Great, it's good to see excitement in home business entrepreneurs. Unfortunately that enthusiasm often fades as quickly as it was acquired. And why is that?

Believe it or not, they are probably directing their marketing efforts towardsrepparttar 135240 wrong audience.

Now before you call me crazy, let me explain what I mean.

It seems that most of those new to internet marketing would rather followrepparttar 135241 crowd than strike out on their own. It is all too easy to find ad copy and web site templates with a 'Money Making' theme. There are hundreds of thousands of them.

Unfortunately, there are hundreds of millions of web sites dedicated to 'Home Business', 'Making Money At Home', 'Work At Home', etc. And that isrepparttar 135242 biggest hurdle those enthusiastic newbie marketers are faced with.

What I'm talking about here is competition, andrepparttar 135243 'Home Business' market is one ofrepparttar 135244 most highly competitive fields to venture into.

So what should netpreneurs do to get a good start in internet marketing. Read on...

Find something that is 'Related' to what you do best!

That's right, you need to find your 'Niche', (no, it is not your Brother's daughter) something that you know something about and can pass on to others.

Let me give you a little example.

Suppose you were a cleaning person at a hotel. Being in that field you may know great ways to get stains out of carpets, or easier ways to clean toilets, or how to keep mildew from forming on walls and ceilings in bathrooms.

With this knowledge, you can write a bunch of short articles on these topics and make a very useful web site. Keep adding articles, either your own or those you find onrepparttar 135245 internet, get some links to and from other related web sites and soon you'll have a very valuable web site based onrepparttar 135246 home cleaning niche.
