If I may add, it was already mentioned how one should find a twist on these concepts that works for you and WILL NOT be or get so saturated with the same idea (or actually make great money versus so-so money, because of your unique twist)
I did WH seo for many years and you can get many doors open with these "what your missing" type concepts.
(takes a hit)
A couple more examples would be finding these same local (or not) websites that do not have a phone number or email address on EVERY page of their business website (like not the footer or anywhere except the contact us page...) Again, create your email accordingly...
And a really nice one for your hosting affiliate program PLUS your other marketing services (i.e., email form install, or website analysis, optimization, etc...)
Once you have found say 10-30 (50-200?) sites that you would like to target (any industry, any topic, maybe you want local, maybe it doesn't matter)...
Go to Internetseer or others and sign-up for a free email notification when the site goes down. For free their site monitors the URL and tells YOU whenever they go down and for how long.
Monitor for 30 days adding new ones as you wish and you will find websites that stay "Live" no where near the advertised 99.9% UPTIME that their host offers. Most businesses have NO IDEA and you may be shocking them, they assume they are "live" 24/7
Now you can get them hosted with your Affiliate program, or tell them how you can save them hosting dollars every month and may get them some FREE hosting based on their current uptime stats... this can go many directions, but it is free for you - and you have the actual stats... they were emailed to you for free. Be creative.
How's that?
