REVIEW SUMMARY:
At first glance I had my doubts about Niche Finder by Brad Callen. The interface looks so simple and there don't seem to be so many functions, like Market Samurai or Micro Niche Finder have. But after testing it I found out that Niche Finder excels in the one thing that is most important to clever internet marketers: to find easy to rank for and profitable keywords fast.
But first, check out this niche finder video that shows you more in depth about the (hidden) qualities and explains the new features that have been added upon user request:
Very often, internet marketers choose keywords that are too broad and hard to rank for or they pick keywords with low traffic. Then theywill spend a lot of time to build a site, write articles around the keywords and getting backlinks, only to be frustrated to find out that all the work isn't profitable, because they targted the wrong keywords. Sounds familiar? Yeah, me too. There’s nothing worse in this business then wasting your time and effort without results.
Here comes Niche Finder, a new niche finder software tool developed by Brad Callen. It helps you to find out how difficult it is to rank for a particular keyword by analysing the top ten competition for many Onpage and Offpage factors.
Niche Finder is very easy to use. The software shows the results of the Google Keywords Tool plus the Cost per Click data. For this, you need to enter your own Google Adwords account ID once, but this Adwords account info is only stored locally, so completely safe.
When you have decided which niche market you want to target, you enter your niche’s main keyword phrase into the software and hit 'Start'. Niche Finder first shows related keywords and calculates the difficulty level for each keyword phrase, by analyzing the top ten Google search result websites for each keyword. The whole process takes around 3-5 minutes depending on your internet connection speed.
In the image above you can see the results for the parent keyword 'niche finder' that I tried out with this software. On the left the difficulty for each keyword phrase to rank for is shown: RED for difficult (but not for seasoned internet marketers), YELLOW for intermediate and GREEN for easy.
As a next step with Niche Finder you can also filter all columns. Or set a filter so only the Easy keywords are shown in the software. Finally, you can export the results to html for later reference.
On the right of the software screen, available EMD's (Exact Match Domains) are shown for each keyword for .com .net and .org. And when you click on a keyword phrase, in the bottom part of the screen you will find a list of related keyword phrase suggestions, with available EMD domains.
Can you imagine how much time this will save you?
It's awesome!
I used to alternate between Google Keyword Tool, Google Suggest (Instant) and SEOQuake with Firefox to find keywords, global and local searches, cpc, competition, recent popular searches, Page Rank and inbound links. BUT all that have changed with Niche Finder. With just a few clicks, every important data that I require is presented to me within minutes. It is as easy as GREEN to go, YELLOW can go if you have some SEO skills and RED to avoid. Don't be fooled by the simplicity of this tool, it is power packed underneath it.
In my own opinion, Niche Finder is different from other keyword tools. It uses its own Algorithm, consisting of important OnPage and OffPage factors (like Pagerank, Inbound links, Page Title, etc.), to evaluate how competitive a keyword is to rank on the search engines. For me, it's a must have piece of keyword and niche finding software.
I just uncovered a highly valuable keyword that is ranked "Easy" by the software with over 550k searches a month. I snatched up the available EMD domain immediately. I have also uncovered many keywords this morning in a very valuable niche with average search count being about 40k. This software ROCKs. Go get it.
In the end, Niche Finder really helps marketers to find the right keywords to target for their niche market. And it does this fast and reliable. The price ($97) seems a little high, but think about it like this: the software saves you a lot of time and if it helps you to find just one good niche (and avoid entering a bad one) it is really worth it.
As always, Brad Callen’s Niche Finder comes with a 60 day money back guarantee, so if you're not yet convinced, there’s no risk to try it out yourself. So to conclude, together with excellent customer service, it is a must have tool in your internet marketing chestbox.
