Strong Domain + Niche Expertise = $$$
Are you an expert? Are you an expert in something? Anything? Chances are that many domainers are leaving money on the table by not putting their niche expertise to work.
What do I mean by “niche expertise”? It has been said that almost everyone has some area of specialized knowledge where they know more than the average person. Some areas of knowledge are more marketable (i.e. finance, law, health, etc.), others are more sexy (i.e. fashion, celebrity gossip, etc.), and some can be quite boring (i.e. plumbing, organizing, etc.). However, I would venture that almost every piece of niche expertise, if properly packaged, can result in a nice chunk of change.
If you are in a rut and can’t seem to get the recurring revenue that you are looking for or maybe you are just waiting for a new stroke of creative genius I would challenge you to get back to basics. Choose a subject that you know and know well and then launch a website on that topic.
Maybe you have a college degree in an area that you could come up with more than enough material to keep a blog or website busy churning out unique content. Maybe you work at a job or have worked at a job that has allowed you to gain a very specialized skill set. Why not put this knowledge to good use by helping provide quality information to people and make some money at the same time?
I would challenge you to these 3 steps:
1. Determine Your Area of Expertise
2. Register a Strong Domain Name (shoot for an Exact Match Keyword Domain if possible)
3. Develop the Website with the Goal of Publishing 2+ Pages of High Quality Content Daily
Even without heavy marketing you will be surprised at the type of traffic that your site will begin to get almost immediately. Why? With an exact match keyword domain then half of your battle is already won but one of the biggest benefits to being an expert is that you talk about things naturally in your articles in the exact way that many other people interested in that niche are in fact searching for them. If you are a plumber then mentioning plumbing lingo in your articles is second nature to you. That being the case guess who is going to start to rank almost immediately for those long tail low competition keywords that involve plumbing lingo? That’s right – you are.
There you have it. Find some great domain names using our tools and then put your niche expertise to work making you some money!
