Finding profitable niches is hard, right?
All the good ones are already saturated and have too much competition.
So there's no way you could possibly compete, right?
Well I'm here today to tell you that you are wrong.
Yep, sorry about that.
As here's the thing...
It's true that most of the profitable niches already have a lot of people marketing in them.
Which is NOT a bad thing as it shows it's a healthy market, with lots of products and customers.
And means there's money to be made.
And usually enough money for everyone to get a piece of the pie.
All it means is...
If you want to compete you simply have to find your own smaller sub-niche.
Where there's still LOTS of demand but much less competition.
As even smaller sub-niches within larger markets have a lot of demand.
And finding sub-niches is easy.
As you'll learn with these 8 profitable niche research hacks...

Firstly, What Exactly Is a Sub-Niche?
Before we dive right in let me briefly explain what a sub-niche is so we're both on the same page.A sub niche is simply a smaller segment of the market.
So for example weight loss is a big, general, market rather than a niche.
Weight loss for women is more niche but still quite broad.
Weight loss for women who've recently given birth is a sub-niche.
It's specific and focused and caters to a very particular sub-section of the wider weight loss market.
More examples:
- Pet Care > Dog Care > French BullDog Care > Breeding French Bulldogs
- Making Money > Online Marketing > Traffic > SEO > SEO for ecommerce sites
If you just try to appeal to everyone and anyone in the wider market where there's already a LOT of competition, usually from established brands too, you'll struggle to get success.
So always strive to go more niche using these 8 easy tricks...

Nader's thoughts: Change up your wording and get creative with what you say. Sometimes people aren't searching exactly for weight loss for women, but instead are looking for healthy foods to lose weight. Also Google isn't the only search engine, you can apply this method to Bing.com as well.

5. Use Crappy PLR To Find High Quality Niches
PLR content (public label rights) has a bad reputation for being junk and rightly so.Most of it is badly written and not fit for sale.
However it's not all bad and even bad PLR has it's uses for finding sub-topics.
Go to any PLR store, I use PLRStore.com as an example.
Down the right hand side of the page they have scores of different categories.
A lot of these are fairly targeted niches themselves but you can find even deeper sub-niches by clicking on them.
The first on the list is 'Acne'.
Click on it.
Articles pop up on a variety of different acne subjects. Many of these are sub-niches.
Rinse and repeat (excuse the pun) with the other categories.
