I posted this on the blog, but had concerns about posting this on the forum because we have so many brand new newbies. So I just need to caution again, if you are brand new and don't even know how to build a site or do PPC, I don't think this is the place to start. But for affiliates with a little experience this is a good read.
=======================================
Are you trying to dig for gold in small micro niches due to fear of competition in the big niches? If so you aren't alone. It's a common train of thought and often taught that you should stay away from the big competitive niches especially when you are a newbie.
Well here is a refreshing look from the other side. Derek at the Click Consultants blog goes into the reasons you should indeed go after the more competitive big money niches.
Derek focuses on PPC and sometimes recommends new affiliates jump right into these big markets. I would caution that brand new newbies should not try this unless possibly you are working with someone like Derek who's guiding you. However this is a really good read to open up your mind to the possibilities and he makes some good points.

Big niches are more saturated and there is more competition, but there is also a ton more volume and keywords that work in these niches. In smaller niches, if you start getting into the long tail keywords of 3 or more words, you very quickly realize that you’re just not able to get any decent volume, while in bigger niches, you are able to go into these long tail keywords and still rake in the volume because there are just that many more people searching for these products or services!
<strong>There are also several other big advantages to bigger niches that most affiliates don’t take the time to think about</strong>…
