I try to stay active on Wealthy Affiliate as much as I can. At first, I did it just to keep in touch and help people that have signed up with me. As I did this, I noticed people making the same mistakes again and again. Heck, some of these mistakes are the same ones I made when I first started! So I want to put together this guide to help those starting out in Wealthy Affiliate (WA), or even affiliate marketing in general. These are the 10 biggest mistakes I see newbies make all the time. #1 – Getting into the make money online nicheIt feels like almost everyone that goes through WA somehow ends up in the make money online niche and wants to promote Wealthy Affiliate to make THA BIG BUCKS. I know I might seem like a hypocrite because this is a MAKE MONEY ONLINE site – but I would avoid getting into this space unless you really know what you are doing! This was the first site I made, if I were to do it all again I probably would have got into a totally different niche. Why? Because there’s a lot of competition, and it’s really not that profitable unless you’re doing coaching or promoting your own products. #2 – Writing fake review articles to promote WAThis sort of goes hand in hand with #1 but I cringe when I see people post 10 fake review articles on making money online products just to promote Wealthy Affiliate. Not only do I think this is an ineffective method because so many people do it and people are starting to see through the crap – but it also potentially opens people up to lawsuits for writing those fake review articles. #3 – Not having a solid social media presenceWealthy Affiliate is big on Google + as providing backlink power to your site, but that is severely limiting the potential power of your site. You want to have as many social media properties pointing back to your site as you can. You also want them all interconnected so that they power up each other while also powering up your site AND you want them to all be automated so that whenever you post something to your site, you get links from all the other social properties back to your site! Doing this yourself can be very time consuming, however, there is an excellent provide I use that will do this all for you. For new sites, I would just order the basic version for $5 and get the $15 in add-ons for the additional Google properties and extra social media accounts. And yes this is a completely white-hat method. If you already have some social media accounts, you can give them your info and they will attach all the properties together for you. #4 – Just writing review articlesWriting review articles are fine, but ONLY writing review articles is just a waste of time. Sure if you might be able to rank on the first page for very low competition keywords for some articles. But if want to rank for competitive terms you need to add informational or supporting articles to the mix. What are supporting articles? They are articles related to the keywords you want are trying to rank for. Here is an example of how it looks: ![]() Source: Serpfocus Let’s say you’re trying to rank for the keyword “best HD TV’s” (I wouldn’t recommend it if you try) – so you could make supporting articles that are related to HD TV’s but do not target the same keyword. For example, you could make related articles such as “A Complete Guide to finding the right TV”, or “Finding the right size TV for your room”. These articles are meant to add value to your site and help consumers make their buying decision easier. It also gives your main article something called ‘topical relevance’ in Googles eyes which will make it easier to rank. The important thing is to link the supporting article to your main article and visa versa. #5 – Not having patienceI see people get frustrated when after 3-4 months their sites aren’t ranking well and they don’t know why they can’t get any traffic to their sites. Well, first of all, it’s probably a site with 100% review articles and has very little informational content on it. Google is not stupid, they know when a site is being set up as a straight up affiliate site and they won’t reward them. That’s another reason why having informational or supporting content is super important! Also, brand new sites take longer than ever for Google to begin trusting them. That’s why having many social properties linking back to your site will help you get ranking quicker. Google wants to see you’re a real brand and real brands have many social media accounts. Your first couple of months should be all about uploading content and learning about your niche better. It also helps to be active on forums and Q&A sites like Quora and Reddit. That way you can understand your niche better as well as drive people to your website while you wait for organic traffic from Google. Most new websites can take 6+ months before they really start gaining traction in Google, so use that time to try and drive traffic in other ways like Youtube or even making your own ebooks. #6 – Having unrealistic expectationsWealthy Affiliate isn’t going to have the answers to all your problems. Being successful in affiliate marketing is like being successful in any other business. It requires a commitment to learning as much as you can while also putting in the work. There are many things Wealthy Affiliate doesn’t touch on, especially getting to your site links (which is one of the biggest factors for getting high rankings – very important!) or creating a good Youtube channel. There are many reasons for leaving out such topics. For one, getting links to your site is a bit of a gray area, so WA stays away from this topic as it doesn’t want to get into murky waters. Also, some topics are just outside of the scope of what WA wants to be about. But that doesn’t mean learning about these topics wouldn’t be very helpful in making you successful! So it’s important to understand that being an affiliate marketer means always learning.

Do you already have a topic but feel like you're missing a crucial element? In this post, I will share how to choose and refine the perfect (profitable) blog topic. Listen to This EpisodeTop Blogging Niche MistakesOne of the things that holds so many potential bloggers back is selecting a niche. If you think about it, the niche you select can set you up for success, or failures. But time after time, I see bloggers making a few big mistakes when it comes to choosing a niche: 1. They choose passion without profitI'm all for choosing a topic you're passionate about. It's a big part of what I preach. ![]() Choosing a Niche But if you're passionate about a topic that people aren't willing to spend money on, then you won't make money. That's not good for business. 2. Choosing profit without passionThen there are those who go into a niche because they know there's a lot of money in that niche. They start creating content only to get burnt out soon after starting. That's often because they aren't passionate about the topic. It's like having a job you hate only because it pays the bills. Recipe for disaster. 3. Choosing niches that are too broadThen there are those who go after a huge topic like politics or Christianity. ![]() Avoid Broad niches While those are hot topics, they're so broad that it's almost impossible to stand out. Without the ability to stand out, you are setting yourself up for failure. Ain't nobody got time for that. 4. Choosing niches that are too narrowLastly, there are those who understand that they need to narrow down their topic. The only problem is that they end up going too narrow and their potential audience size is too small. Yes, their target audience may be willing to spend money. But there aren't enough buyers to make it sustainable. The Perfect NicheFinally, there are those who stumble onto (or choose wisely) the perfect niche. They are able to build a huge audience of raving fans and are making a good amount of money. On top of that, they LOVE what they do. Here's how I would describe that perfect niche:
This is the recipe for success. But the question still remains – how do you find that perfect niche for YOU? I've got you covered. Keep reading. Step 1: Uncover your passionsThis is where it all begins. If you're going to spend a lot of energy building a blogging business, choose a passion. “But Leslie, I don't know what I'm passionate about”. ![]() Uncover your passion No problem. Here are a few questions to help get you going: What do you enjoy doing?Pull out a pen and paper and start brainstorming some things you enjoy doing. This is an important starting point. It works particularly well if you're able to go to a quiet place (preferably out in nature). Start brainstorming the things that energize you. What would you do for free?If you had an endless supply of money, what would you continue doing? Would you stay at your current job? Would you go back to that thing you used to love doing? Write down your answers. What do people often ask you for help with?If you're alive, chances are you get asked for help with specific things. Are you a good writer? Do you help people in biology? In high school, did you take students to the library and do study groups helping in biology? (my answer to this question is yes, lol). By now, you should be noticing that certain answers are starting to stand out. Here's what I want you to do – choose your top three. Don't think too much about it. Choose three. When you overthink things, you often end up going away from the true answer – the one that feels natural. Now that you have your top three, you have a good starting point. Now let's do some real work. Step 2: Do your research![]() Do some research We know what your top 3 passions are, and now it's time to dig a little deeper. While your passion is important, it can't build a business on its own. That's where the research comes into play. Here are a few things you can do to help you with your research. Do some basic keyword researchKeyword research can be a powerful thing for helping you choose the perfect niche. And while there are all kinds of advanced tools out there, I like to keep things simple. Use the Google Keyword Planner to see how many monthly searches your top passions get. Is it something people are searching for? I always hesitate to give numbers because these numbers are so subjective. Also, the recommended numbers change over time. What I like to say is you probably shouldn't be choosing a niche with fewer than 1,000 monthly searches. And of course, higher is better. The Google Keyword planner also gives you an idea of how stiff the competition is. Also, it tells you how much people are spending on ads for those keywords. My recommendation is to put your three passions (and any reasonable variations) in the tool and dig deeper. If you want to dig even deeper into keyword research, I've heard good things about Long Tail Pro. Analyze your competitionYou've already started getting some hints about your competition. But now it's time to do some more detailed analysis. ![]() Analyze Your Competition Go to Google and search for “Your niche + Blog”. This will show you some of the top blogs out there. Take the top 10 blogs you find and ask yourself the following questions:
Your answers to these questions will help give you insight as you narrow down your niche. Search the “Everything Store”Yes, I'm talking about Amazon. One of the things I like doing is searching the Kindle store on Amazon for topics. ![]() Search the “Everything Store” This gives you an idea of whether people are willing to spend money for digital info in that niche. If you find lots of Kindle books in there with decent numbers or reviews, this is a good sign. If you don't, don't worry. This is all information you can use as you choose your niche (we'll get there). Also, check to see what kinds of physical products you can find for sale targeting people in your niche. This will give you an idea of options for monetization in the future. Check out the social activity![]() Check out the social activities of your competitors Our next stop – the king of the social media jungle – Facebook. Go to Facebook and search for pages and groups in your niche. If you're able to find pages, check them out. Are there VERY popular pages? Are there MANY pages? And what about groups? Join a few and browse around. How active are those groups? Are people engaging in lots of discussions on social media? Doing this kind of research will give you an idea of how well your niches do on social media. This can help with getting your content out to the masses. Your GoalAt this point, you may be thinking – “Leslie, you didn't give a bunch of specific numbers”. No, I didn't – and even when I did give a number, I did so hesitantly. I have a confession to make – I hate doing deep keyword research and complicated analyses. But here's the good news – you don't need all that to build a successful blog. Here's the goal with this research. You want to be able to compare your top three to see how they stack up against each other. In doing this research, you may find that one stands out among the rest. If so, choose that one for the next step. If you find that they are all pretty good, then you get to play “eenie meenie minie mo”. Step 3: CHOOSE ONE (and Drill down)![]() Choose only one topic Yes, I said one. Go ahead and make a choice, because we have some more work to do. At this stage, you will most likely have a general topic. When I did this kind of activity, I ended up choosing topics like Biology and Blogging. For you, it may be sewing, interior decorating or even woodworking. While those are great topics to talk about, they aren't narrow enough for a blog these days. You want to specialize in a specific topic to help a specific person reach a specific result. Here are some questions to help you narrow down: What specific aspect?Let's say your topic is biology. The problem is that biology is such a diverse topic. There's cell biology, physiology, molecular biology, high school biology, and much more. What specific aspect of biology are you going to specialize in? When I started my biology blog, I chose human physiology. Choose a specific aspect of your niche to tackle and you're on your way. Who are you targeting?![]() Ask these questions as you decide what to choose This is one of the best ways to narrow down your niche – choose a very specific demographic. Instead of teaching physiology to anyone, I chose upper-level college biology students. And you know what? When they found my content, they knew it was for them. What specific problem are you helping them solve?Let me tell you a secret. Well, it's not really a secret. Here goes . . . People will spend money to solve problems. There it is – the “secret” to your business success. Identify a problem you are going to help your target audience solve. The data you got in your research should help here. Especially when you checked out your competition and evaluated Facebook groups. For me it was simple – My target audience couldn't understand their professors. They teach all kinds of complicated topics but the students don't understand them. As a result, they struggle to pass their physiology class. Leslie to the rescue. What result will you help them achieve?If you help them solve the problem you're focused on, what will the result be? This is something to get clear on because it will help you in everything you do. In my case, I helped those students pass their physiology class. Even better, I help D students get A's. What will that be for your blog? Your summary statement![]() Your Summary Statement When it's all said and done you'll be able to make the following statement: My niche is ___________. I help ___________ do/achieve ____________ so that they can ______________. This may look something like this: My niche is biology/physiology. I help upper-level college biology students understand complicated topics in physiology so that they can get an A in their human physiology class. What's your summary statement?
