So after drilling into the amazon top selling pages, I came across Game Cameras

I am familiar with the hunting community, have been part of it, and have friends and family that are very involved in the community.

The Game cameras have a high sales price (over $100), and hunters are very passionate about their gear, and preparing for hunting. Also people wanting to see what is sneaking around their house in rural areas use these cameras. Its always interesting to see what is sneaking around after dark.

Next, I will check out the traffic, and competition for this niche.

Could you elaborate a bit on this? Thanks.

Could you elaborate a bit on this? Thanks.

I used the Amazon Top Sellers page to drill into many categories of interest, that were previously listed, and basically looked for well selling items that were prices above $100.

Some pages also provide info on how long the item has been on the top seller list. For this project, I want an evergreen product, that has likely been on the list a long time, indicating that its not just a hot or seasonal item.

There were other items I could have promoted, like the beach body Insanity workout for $140, but something like that belongs to a very competitive niche, so I stayed away, and it didnt really meet my criteria, since I didnt specify health/excercise on my Interests list.

This page gives you an idea of what the top sellers are in each niche.

For instance Binoculars seem to sell well on Amazon, and are in teh same hunting category, but binoculars come in many prices, and sizes, and arent specific to any niche. So choosing something like that, may get people looking for $2.00 kids binoculars, or $39.00 opera binoculars.

With the game cameras, there are pretty specific uses for them, and the price range on most of them will give me a pretty good commission.

Thank you Russell, very informative!

Hmm... Perhaps I'm being dense. Are the categories listed on that page the only best seller categories available?

The categories I see are:

Electronics
Toys & Games
Camera & Photo
Movies & TV
Music

Thanks again, interesting thread.
