Mummoth Myspace Marketing-3

Step One

Quick Note – Go ahead and setup a new profile for this project. Just fill in the basics until you figure out your niche.

Finding Your Niche On MySpace.

Finding a niche on MySpace is easy. Go to the MySpace homepage and click on “Groups”. From here we can see a list of group categories. It can be overwhelming at first when your head fills with ideas because of all the choices, but try to choose a topic that interests you. For me, I chose the Pets & Animals group (8743 groups!) since I have four cats and a dog.

You can search by keyword on the Groups main page, but I just scrolled through the first couple of pages in the group category to find what I wanted. I joined three groups with a combined member count of 60,378. “Cats Rock” has over 40,000 members alone.

When looking for your niche, ask yourself these questions:

1. Are these people passionate about this subject? Or, Do these people have a problem I could solve?

2. Can a report/e-book be written that relates to the niche?

3. Is there a charity that would bring attention to my product?

Number 3 is not always necessary, you can sell products without having a charity auction, but you will notice sales are much much higher when this option is in place.

Also, while looking for your niche, you don't always have to go for the groups with lot's of members. When you click on a group category, you can sort the results by newest, most popular, and name.
