But I'll Never Be Able To Out Rank Bigger Sites.

Published on Wealthy Affiliate — a platform for building real online businesses with modern training and AI.

I recently had a referral ask, "is it even worth choosing this niche because there're so many HUGE websites in the niche?"

And the answer I gave was simple. It's still 100% pursuing if it's something you're passionate about.

I went on to talk about low hanging fruit keywords and how you don't have to target the huge traffic topics that the "big guys" target to get traffic and make money.

For someone starting out if you follow the training here at WA exactly you'll find keywords that the big guys aren't target that you can sneak in and rank very well for.

The next reply from my referral asked "Won't I run out of low competition keywords to target"

Without revealing the niche in this post I'll get to the point. I basically said no and listed several keyword ideas I came up with in just a few minutes on Jaxxy and different spin offs keywords they could use to target.

They didn't seem very convinced so to try to inspire them some more I went and took a screenshot of some Google results of my site to prove my point.

Even if you do run out of low competition keywords that bigger sites aren't targeting a small site can outrank the "big guys" for most keywords.

Below is a screenshot of my website where I've claimed the number 1 spot right above the Google Play Store!

*This is an incognito search so results are not affected by my search history

After sending this screenshot they seemed to be inspired and back on track and began to believe that they could make it happen too!

Thought I'd share this with everyone just to remind you that no matter where you're at on your online business journey the training here at Wealthy Affiliate WORKS!

Just stick with it and use this great community for help if you have any questions.

Hopefully everyone has a great holiday season and see you all in 2018! :)
