As many Internet marketers and online business people struggle to find a niche that is perfect for them, most of them ignore what is right in front of their noses every single day. All you have to do is go to Yahoo, MSN or your nightly news and read the headlines and there is your niche!

It sounds simple, but timing is everything. You have to be right on top of the news break and take action right away. I read an article on a recent event that took place that one person took advantage of and it paid off.

If you recall, a certain political leader from the state of New York was caught in a scandal that involved a call girl and this person was one of the first to get articles, a website with affiliate links, pictures and info out on this call girl and boy did she reap the rewards. She said her normal website traffic is around 25,000 hits a day and it went up to 1.5 million within hours of getting listed in Google and that she made about 8-9 months income in one day. Wow!

So, now the question is, is it right to make money off of someone else’s misfortune? I say no, but in this certain situation I think it was done correctly. The subject of the website was directed towards the call girl, who chose this profession, therefore this was not an attack on her unlike directing toward the ill fated ex-Gov who was caught cheating, letting his family and all of the people of New York state down and is now out of a job. Celebrity gossip is is a huge field, but be careful how far you take it.

So the next time you see some breaking news coming on the nightly news, get off your duff and take advantage of it and make some money. Thanks for stopping and will see you next time.
