This is one of the biggest reasons why affiliates & Net Marketers are failing.
So… how can you be wrong? Why does it matter what product you require to promote? Well, the answer is simple. There's 2 simple thumb rules, or you can call it ‘tests’, that I do, in order to decide if I say yes or no to a product. Here they go:
1) Is there a market? You probably thinking, this is a odd query but it is not. You must see if there is a market. You must find out if there is volume of targeted audience to make it worth a while for you to check the market.
2) Is this market is a buyer market? Back then I found a great niche – the astrology niche, it's zillions of searches & the cost per click is low. I’ve tried back then lots of products & services, building lists, but the bottom line, these people wanted free astrology information & weren’t planning on paying a dime for it or anything related. You must do a lovely research (I do admit that sometimes you can know & the best way to do is to check it…).
Now it doesn’t matter if you are planning to make your own products or promote other people products – the 2 rules always apply to both.

HOW TO FIND A NICHE ?
7 places where to find ideas.
Always keep a small digital recorder with you or
just take a small notebook and pen.
CONVERSATIONS
When you talk to a friend or just standing in a bus stop listen to what people talk about with a marketer’s ear. Are they thinking of moving to a new place? Did they just get a cat or new puppy? Are they trying to solve a problem with their finances or have they medical problems? If they are, chances are good that others are trying to solve the same problem.
RADIO - TV
Try to listen to talk-radio programs and watch Tv talk-shows. These shows many times have guests that are experts on all sorts of subjects. Listen carefully and you'll get a lot of ideas from the listener's questions.
MAGAZINES
Go to the bookstore and read the headlines and subheads on the covers of magazines. They do research on the subjects that they are going write about so you can identify the hot topics.
BOOKS
Have a look at the top 100 best selling books. See the topic of the books and get ideas.
NEWSPAPERS
Read Newspapers – You can find not just a particular niche you're interested in,
but also new breakthroughs, entertainment news, technological advances, interesting cultural happenings and so on, all of them are niches to be mined there.
INTERNET
Take a look at the top selling electronic products on Amazon, Ebay & other sites.
Each of these products has a huge market and the buyers would probably
be interested in a report or video about "How To" use the product more effectively.
MOVIES
Pay attention to remarkable interests, profession, or hobbies that characters have in movies. Pay attention when they talk to one another. If something has been integrated in a movie or a television show, chances are it is interesting a lot.
Forget about things that interest you.
You are a seller and you are looking for a good niche so search for the market FIRST.
