I have some doubt, here you said WL is the hardest niche to start in as an affiliate but in another post you said ' WL is not difficult - it's actually the easiest imo because there are so many products to choose from. You just have to follow the method, without following the crowd '
Afther all, is WL hardest niche or easiest niche? I am confusing now. I also try the paleo niche but the price is so much low with only $9. I hope you can give me further information about this. I read through all of your posts and really help a lot for me. Thanks very much.
My advice is stay away from WL / Diet to begin with (I think Meathead actually said this somewhere too), because It is tough to start there - it gets easier the more you learn though.
Pick a different niche that is not saturated, one that you can really target people with. Stuff like spirituality springs to mind, or time management, or maybe even dog training (you could really go to town on that one and never run out of places to post a link to your site).
Basically, pick a niche which you know a little about, something that interests you and one which is not spammed to death. You'll have to use some out of the box thinking to find the results in G, but with a little imagination there will always be hundreds of new places to comment on every day.
Once you start seeing results in those niches, you will find WL becomes a piece of cake afterwards, as there are so many products and places to drop a link - the trouble is you need to really learn how to construct a comment in the WL niche to stand out of the crowd, and write some very good copy to get the hops.
TIPS:
Don't just copy/paste a comment over and over, that's a sure fire way to get banned/ghosted now, especially on FB/Disqus. The best way is to actually write an interesting unique comment yourself, however you can scale this up and outsource it once you know what gets results/traffic...for instance...
When my VA doing this for me I wrote multiple batches of comments for her to use for each sub-topic of the niche. i.e. 1 batch of comments would concentrate on diet, 1 batch on fitness and 1 would be on how losing weight improved quality of life (just examples here off the top of my head, she did this in a different niche).
I also mixed in some longer comments without a link which I knew would get people replying/talking, and manually spun each batch together. (I remember one batch of 15 or so comments I wrote and spun together ended up being 5 pages long of spintax - uniqueness of each comment was still 99% on 100's of spins)
What this enabled my VA to do, even though her English was not that great, was read the title or first few lines of a news article, and if it was on diet for instance, go to the diet batch of comments, hit "spin", then copy/paste whatever the output was into the reply section.
Not every comment had a link of course as you can't do that now on a lot of sites, but ALL comments were on-point, totally unique and did not look out of place in any reply section.
That's some advanced stuff of course, but will help down the line when you start making some sales.
EDIT:
Oh yeah, and make sure your comments are in PERFECT English - nothing screams spam more than a poorly worded reply with a link in it.
