Affiliate Programs

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Niche websites and blogs are where the money is at in Internet Marketing and Affiliate Marketing, especially on a local level.

Yesterday I was reading this article from Forbes about the 10 things that people are still buying even in this down economy. After reading it, I realized that Forbes just outed 10 hot niches for 2009. I thought I’d share them with you and comment on how you might make money with a few of them.
