The first step to dominating affiliate marketing is surprisingly simple:
Choose the right niche.

Broad niches are ideal—they rarely run out of momentum.
Think about categories like:

• Fitness
• Outdoor life
• Technology

Each one contains dozens of profitable micro-niches with evergreen potential.

Let’s take outdoor life as an example.
It’s broad. So where should you start?

Tip #1: Research Website Marketplaces

Visit platforms like Flippa.com and explore which sites are actively selling and what niches they’re in.

For example, it’s easy to find sites making $3,000/month in the portable generator niche.

If building in the outdoor space, that could be an ideal entry point—
targeting power generation products tailored for campers, off-grid living, or emergency prep.

Tip #2: Analyze Real Competitors

Search for outdoor blogs on Google and examine their structure.
Take a site like hikingandfishing.com.
Scroll through their homepage and you’ll likely find:

• A fly fishing gear guide
• A budget backpack review
• A fly rod combo comparison

These aren’t random—they’re placed intentionally because they convert.
Use that data to inform your own content roadmap.

Tip #3: Ask Your Affiliate Manager

They know what sells.
Affiliate managers have conversion data, best-performing products, and top content formats across the program.

And here’s the best part: they’re incentivized to help you succeed.
Just ask:

“Which subtopics or products in this category tend to convert best right now?”

Choosing the right micro-niche is the foundation for every successful affiliate campaign.
Start broad, research smart, and let the data guide your direction.
