CJ EPCs - view the full advertiser list and sort by EPC, search from the top down and don't be afraid to sort different ways and dig around. Use your head when looking at this data. (Hint, watch for big differences in 7 day EPC vs. 3 month EPC)
Remember EPC is figured as earnings per click x 100, so $138 EPC is earning the affiliates an average of $1.38 per click.
Overture Bids - high bids = high paying niches (usually)

New stuff in Yahoo, tip from eljefe3. Affiliates may be doing well enough to buy a yahoo listing.

" Q8 t: {7 {4 a2 r) _$ F" yElectronics - Highly competitive industry with low margins. Sales are usually bigger ticket items not purchased often. (Small commission on a purchase that is researched quite a bit before a buy is finally made.)

$ m/ }; a, A+ y, g  zConsumables - they are consumed (rocket science, eh?) and must be purchased again. Look for programs with recurring/residual commissions here.

Services - often have the bigger margins which = bigger commissions. (No product, fewer employees, no shipping, etc etc.)
Figure it out.

This takes some serious contemplation, sometimes with no result. Usually no result for now, anyway. Think great dividends for being first, possibly pioneering a niche.

Look at the top 100 today. What differences do you see from six months or a year ago? What trends do you see?

What technologies are up and coming? What do you think will be the next thing to take off? The first ones in a hot niche are usually better off than the rest that follow.
