Adult Webmastering 101: Finding Micro Niche Possibilities In Even The Most Saturated

This is the latest of the tutorial series that I have been running with newbies in mind. As with always, I am sure that most of the seasoned professionals will be familiar with everything I am talking about but there are still a lot of new webmasters around and I hope it helps them a bit.

I have been saying it for years - micro niche means money. What do I mean about micro niches? At its most basic a micro niche is when you take a larger niche and break it down into smaller (micro) chunks. The advantages of working with micro niches are many but they boil down to being able to better filter and target your traffic and to have less competition.

Many people over the years have come to think of micro niches are mainly associated with fetishes but that isn?t true because any niche can be broken down into smaller chunks. Even the most saturated niches, such as teens, lesbians and Asians, can be broken down into micro niches. In fact, I often find that finding micro niches within the popular larger macro niches is the best way to carve your own path and get sales easier.

Another advantage of finding micro niches within the macro niches is that you don?t always have to go find a micro niche specific site in order to cash in on the micro niche. Instead, you can sort of ?reverse engineer? your micro niche campaigns to make the most of the the tours your sponsors are already offering you.

So, for example, lets say my sponsor had a nice Asian site that I wanted to promote but I didn?t want to be fighting with everybody else over the less specific Asian terms.

The first thing I will do - and something far too many people never do - is load up the site?s tour in my browser. For the purposes of this example, I am going to be promoting All Asian Girls from the Max Cash stable. So, I load up the All Asian Girls Tour.

Once I have the tour up in my browser I put my ?micro niche? glasses on and look for anything on the tour that could be a micro niche. From looking at this specific tour I pick up on few possible micro niches.

Asian panties, Asian pussy licking/oral sex, long hair Asians, Asian blowjobs, and Asian boot fetish are all possible micro niches that I picked up on but since is so heavily featured on the tour I decide that I am going to consider ?Asian Lesbians? my micro niche to target.

As you can see if you visit the tour page, Asian Lesbians feature heavily on a portion of the tour. So, if I am sending surfers looking for ?Asian Lesbians? to the tour they are going to see what they want on the tour. Matching your chosen micro niches to the tour is important because if you were targeting a micro niche that wasn?t represented at all on the tour then you are making it much more difficult to keep the interest of that surfer and get them to sign up.

There are many ways to turn micro niches into money and personally I find it fun to see just how far I can break things down and still find surfers. Using this reverse engineering technique allows you to make the most out of the sites a sponsor may have and to creatively filter your traffic down and get those surfers to sign up and make you money.
