Simply set up some alerts for phrases that include the terms:
- “online forums” + your keywords
- “discussion boards” + your keywords
- “forum” + your keywords
- “online community” + your keywords
Set up some alerts? Keywords? Wow, this is getting technical right away, Dave … my head aches.
OK, don’t reach for the pain reliever just yet. Let me explain a couple things and when you see how simple what I’m proposing is, I don’t think your head will hurt at all.
You’ll recall I have been writing about … even started a shoet series here on retired Pay World about making money with the knowledge you already possess using an eBook, an audio or audio-video tutorial or even actual “real” print books about a subject you already know well, or are motivated (passionate about) to do research in. The series so far is at:
in this, the next installment, I was going to talk about how you can use Google AdWords or a competing PPC (Pay Per Click) service to “prove” the market for your idea before you make an investment.
But like all well-laid (and then delayed) plans online, I have a much better installment here. As you can see from the quote above, a fellow blogger name of Willie Crawford has spelled it all out for us in much greater detail than I would be able to. I’d advise you to read Willie’s post and his other guidance on this subject in detail … his reasoning is sound and you really can, as the heading suggests, prove to yourself that there is a market for a product … electronic or even paper … before you spend one thin dime. Any time you can order up a technology this comprehensive and this useful with just a few clicks of the mouse … and no credit card number … you just have to love the ‘Net and the directions blogging and Internet marketing are heading.
On top of all the other good reasons I can think of to learn this stuff, it makes you younger. (well, feel younger, anyway, and that’s half the battle, isn’t it?)
