Hi, my name's Steve. I'm very interested in internet marketing, domaining, and all related adventures. I've read several books on the subject, and I've tried other training programs. I like the depth, breadth and community aspects of wealthy affiliate, and I look forward to learning a lot here.
I was in a web company for about 7 years a long time ago, where I was a jack of all trades. I've also been a writer, and math teacher, and I even walked dogs for many years--yes, I'm a dog person too. I worked on some archaeological sites when I was much younger, and I majored in anthropology/archaeology back in school, with a lot of science courses too.
I have a wide range of interests, from science and science fiction to history, anthropology, good books, art and drawing, games, and more. Despite a promising start I never got good at poker. I think I'm pretty well-rounded, which I hope will come in handy picking a niche.

I hope things are going well. I know you are getting rolling within the training and there is ONE thing that always tends to confuse people and that is "what is my niche?".
I know, same thing happened to me when I started.
I just wanted to reach out and let you know that I am here if you ever want to run any niche "ideas" by me or you have any questions about finding your niche.
Get back to me when you get the chance! :)

Great! Here's a question, then:
When we are picking a niche, and have chosen a few categories we find interesting, should we do keyword research with the tools to make sure that there are searches going on within a given range of search volume? If so, what volume range do you recommend? If not, then how can we be sure there's enough interest out there to warrant a site?
Thanks
Steve

All niches have a ton of opportunity within them. There are 3.1 BILLION people online and we are all now more connected than ever. This is the audience you are dealing with the Internet and even some of the most obscure niches have millions of people interested in them.
You should read about this here within a blog post I recently created on this exactly topic: Is my niche a profitable one? YOU make a niche profitable and that is why it is important that you decide on a niche that you are interested in/passionate about. They will all have 10,000's of potential keywords as well, so don't worry about a "niche" having enough traffic or opportunity, it will always be a case where there is too much opportunity. It will make the journey that much more fun and exciting. ;)

Or to help people get there yes. That is what you are going to be learning as you build out your content, creating content with "intent".
I have spent some time breaking down the process in the most simplistic way possible. Success online is at the core a 4 step process and I have broken them down within this video: How to Create an Online Business - The 4 Steps Broken, down, the process looks like this:
Step 1: Choose your niche
Step 2: Build your website/content
Step 3: Get rankings in search engines (leads to traffic)
Step 4: Monetize your traffic (the make money part, through affiliate programs, etc!)
This applies in absolutely every niche and as you work through the training here at WA, you are going to be walked through this exact process. This is fundamental for ANY success online.
If you have any further questions let me know Steven. :)

Everybody earns money at a different rate, so it really depends on the person. I have actually created a discussion on this that will put things into perspective for you here: If I Work at This 8 Hours Per Day. Have a read of that, I know it will give you a lot of insight into this exact topic. ;)
The first month is typically your foundation building stage. In order to build a website that earns you consistent revenue, you need this foundation. After this, you are going to start seeing traffic and as you build this out, there are many different ways in which you can generate revenue.
Personally it took me into my 3rd month of busting my butt to make my first dollar online, by month 6 though I was making consistent income and by the year mark, I was almost full time.
But guess what would have happened if I quit during those first two "trying" months. I would not be where I am at today. Just wanted to put things into perspective for you.
I am in this journey with you, so is the community here at WA. If you want to jump in, work hard, take action, and persist. Amazing things can and will happen!
