The best niche for you - depends on YOU!

Well all the really good niches are already super competitive and niches are something you sort of need to find for yourself. If someone knows of a good niche they would not share it on a public forum as it would just create competition. Plus if someone like me said XYZ was good niche then 20 people more skilled than you could jump on it.
FYI health and business are not niches, they are huge markets, so what you need to do is find a niche within. I would recommend health over business and there are a ton of health niches.
Trust me when I say you will be much further ahead if you follow through some of the exercises I recommend rather than have someone that has no idea about your interests or background, just throw a niche out there. The goal is to find a niche that has some interest and demand yet isn't too competitive or over-saturated yet. Make it a game and play detective.
The niche is the MARKET, once you find your niche, then you build a site, generate content, drive traffic and THEN you add an affiliate product. A couple of the most popular networks are CJ.com, Google Affiliate Network and Shareasale.com. They each have hundreds of affiliate programs. But again 1st you need to find your niche. THEN find products people in that niche would be interested in.

Wow, that is a huge list with ways to generate traffic to your site.
I think that I am going to save that list for my general knowledge and maybe share it with my downline to help them generate traffic to their sites
Thanks for sharing it with us, it is really helpful.
