Unless this is your first time online then I am sure you have heard about Myspace. They have hundreds of millions of users, and this reason alone makes it a very attractive site for internet marketers trying to make money online. Even with all the competition from other social networking websites, Myspace still runs strong, and there are still plenty of money making opportunities left for those with a little dedication, creativeness, and motivation.
One of the main things you need to understand about Myspace marketing is the fact that not every product will convert well. In fact most won’t. If you want to stand any chance at making money online through Myspace, there are certain niches that you should probably stick to that will give you the best shot at actually making money.
The demographics of Myspace users are primarily teens and young adults so obviously promoting something like hair replacement products isn’t going to give you the best return on investment (ROI), and if you don’t do the research you could end up wasting your time and possibly losing money.
Below are six niches that have the potential to do well and make you a lot of money by promoting them on Myspace. They cater to the Myspace demographics very well, so if you get creative enough, you have a chance at making money… and a lot of it!
1. T-shirt Affiliate Programs - Teenagers love t-shirts, especially creative and stupid ones! There are plenty of T-shirt websites that have affiliate programs, or you could even make your own shirts. Either way, Myspace is a great place to promote them.
2. Entertainment and Humor Websites – These can do very well but the trick is to be unique. Think of sites like Ebaumsworld and College-humor, they are wildly popular because they have tons of hilarious content. This is a somewhat crowded niche, but if done correctly, it could be a money maker.
3. Free Music/ Free Games – If you have an online arcade that is well stocked with flash games; Myspace is the perfect place to promote it. Same goes for music download sites, perhaps you have a cost per action (CPA) site that you’re affiliated with and want to promote – there is no better place than Myspace.
4. Myspace Resource Sites – This one is a no-brainer. If you have a hot new Myspace resource site, one of the easiest and quickest ways to get traffic is to promote the heck out of it on Myspace. In this situation, word-of-mouth is your best friend. Teens love to talk and recommend stuff to each other.
5. Free Ringtones – Again, teens and young adults are still ringtone junkies, and since teens and young adults make up the majority of the Myspace user base, it’s an obvious place to promote your ringtone site, or perhaps an opportunity to funnel Myspace users to a CPA “Free Ringtone for Your Email Address” type of site.
6. Other Social Networking Sites – Maybe you’ve decided to take on the big dogs and start your own social networking site. Although due to market saturation your chances of success are pretty slim, what better place to get members than the king itself – Myspace! Make sure you emphasize why your site is better, and talk about the benefits of them trying it out. Who knows, you may just get lucky!
There are plenty of ways to make money online by promoting products on Myspace. The key is to find the right niche products to promote. If you find the right niche, the right product, and marketing it correctly, you stand a chance to make a lot of money!
