allright I'm planning to do another big website (quality one, much content, pictures, reviews etc...), and since I'm dedicated to my work, I beleive I can make another content worth website like my previous one.

but am just thinking about it in general (not decided on topic yet...)

so can someone direct me which topics are better paying (so I don't make the same mistake, like with my jokes, tricks website that gets thousands of clicks per day and is very popular, but earns cent or so per click...)

please don't suggest mesothelima and stuff like this since I know nothing about this and am not planning to do MFA site.

I'm thinking something about computers, programming, photography, lawyers, tech... or something third? what's your experience?

recently I've red here on webmasters forum, some guy says his normal click is worth about 2.50$ so what niches have many competitors? if you don't like to tell about those arreas please give me guideance where to research this?

Thank you

...so can someone direct me which topics are better paying...

What's wrong with doing your own research? You could find niches that few others are plugging. Don't ask for a fish. Ask for fishing lessons. ;)

Use the Overture Inventory Tool and the Overture Bid tool. Check out the AdSense case studies and see what niches they are plugging and explore related horizontal niches.

And by the way, anytime you plan to Make a site For AdSense, it's technically an MFA. Nothing to be ashamed about. ;)

Nobody hurls tomatoes at the Walmart clerk because he isn't in love with his job. So there's nothing wrong with you building a site with a topic that isn't near and dear to your heart, but makes good money and is just a job.

yeah...most sites are MFA in some way or another.

Very few sites are made only for the joy of it or to share and care ;-)


Try Health... Beauty.... Lawyers .. but these niches are already choked..

so it is back to basics...research and trial and error...

Recently came across a 'mesothelima' MFA who was quite sophisticated. He had pages of stuff on this topic and avoided adsense on the index page. But subsequent pages were full of ads...

But seems to have vanished now as his strategy did not pay off?

So keep experimenting..

I am also now tempted to add some MFA pages with 'great content' on my website..who know?

It's easy. Find a product that's not supposed to ship until next Christmas, from a company that's lousy at meeting their deadlines. A company that spends lots of money on advertising every year. A mass-market product that hardly anyone except industry analysts is talking about because it's not close to shipping, and no big advertising campaign has kicked in yet. A product whose name is not the same as any common words that already appear in millions of web pages (fortunately, companies love to invent new words for their products). A high-priced product so someone could pay $1/click for qualified visitors and still reasonably hope to make a profit selling that product.

Start building your website devoted to that product. Add content in a highly regular fashion. Laugh at the people who talk about the "sandbox". Watch your traffic zoom up when the product gets close to shipping and the company starts their giant marketing campaign. Tremble in fear when you fall of page #1 for the product name, due to major news websites featuring it. But keep adding new content (much easier now that it's shipped), and watch your ranking creep back up as the Big Guys begin to turn their attention elsewhere.

Rinse and repeat.
