You can see there are nearly 3.4 million ‘near me' or ‘nearby' keywords that people are searching in Google. Hence you can understand the potential of this niche.
You will be surprised to know that there are very few websites which target this niche because people think these searches are for local service providers only.

So what are you going to do in order to make money from this type of niche?
Sometimes back, I tried this niche myself and really got some good results. I hired a developer from Fiverr, paid him 400$ for developing a tool and I created a website from that tool.
Though I didn’t create any content for the site, but I had to work on SEO because the niche was a bit competitive.
After few months, I started making around 800 dollars monthly from the same website and in 6 months I sold the website for $25000.
So if you want to make money from this kind of niche, firstly you need to decide the type of file conversion tool you are going to use on your website, secondly finding best keywords that you will use to rank your website and finally hiring a developer who can create the tool or even develop the whole website.

8. Wish Messages
If there is any good news or bad news, events or festivals OR if someone wants to say sorry or thank you someone, most people simply don’t know how to do it. They can’t write correct greetings to wish someone.
And most of the people who can write these greetings also want to send something special.
So they search on google for best wish messages
Like Messages for Christmas, Diwali, Birthday, Promotion, Love, Wedding, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Independence Days, Sympathy, Congratulations, Birth of a Child, Death of someone and lot more.
You can check birthdaywishes.expert receives 1.89 million monthly visits, luvze.com receives 1.26 million monthly visits. There are other hundreds of websites created on different wish messages that receives millions of visitors.
You can create a website similar to this, add different categories and 50 to 100 messages for each category.

If you are creative then you can write your own wish messages which makes your posts look much more original and have better chances of ranking in Google.
In my research, I found that most of these websites are making money with Google AdSense, affiliate marketing and through selling their own stuffs like bouquet, greetings and many other gifts.
9. Price
This is an excellent affiliate marketing niche especially for Amazon affiliate program. You can target India, USA or any other country through this niche.
People search for prices of different products before they buy anything either online or offline. Sometimes they are looking for websites that can offer best price for a product they have finalized.
So either they search for information during their buying journey for different products or they already have finalised a product and are looking for a website that can offer the cheapest price for the product they want to buy.
You can create a website where you can answer all types of queries about product prices.
You can check traffic of this website mysmartprice.com is 5.6 million and pricedekho.com is 2 million. You can see the potential of this niche.
10. Free Downloads
There is a great demand for digital products and services on the internet. People work hard to create training material and courses, software and tools, themes and plugins and many other digital products and services.
It takes hard work, investment and experience to create a great product. And they charge a price for creating such products.
There is no doubt that most of the people buy and use these products in a legit way. But most of the people want these products free because they can’t afford it or don’t want to pay.
So they search in google if they can download these products for free.
E.g. if someone creates a digital marketing course or a health related course or a software that can perform certain tasks, instead of buying from the author’s website, they will search in Google to find it for free.
They would use queries like these-
‘Name of the Course’ + Free
‘Name of the Course’ + Free Download
‘Name of the Tool’ + Free Download
‘Name of the Software/Tool’ + Free Download
‘Name of the Software/Tool’ + Nulled
‘Name of the Software/Tool’ + Cracked
So you can create a WordPress website on it, find all the digital products and services whom you can target through your website and create posts around these keywords.
You don’t need to work hard writing these posts as you can get the best details from the author’s website of that digital product.
Now the most important thing – you don’t need to provide this for free on your website. You can join affiliate programs of these products and services and link it from your posts.
Can you believe, so many people are going to buy this from your website even if they are looking for free. It is because they really need this product and when they fail to get it free, they are just willing to buy it.
If you want to increase your conversion rate, you can write something convincing and offer them a discounted price with a coupon if available.
For example, you can check this website codelab.mrpdude.com which is based on a similar niche but only for one particular software i.e. Free WordPress themes
11. Forms, Templates & Samples

You can use Google AdSense as well as affiliate programs on the same website. You will find affiliate programs for many of these keywords.
Moreover, for many of these keywords you can rank your website in Google with just on-page SEO. Because these keywords have very little competition.
But there are many other keywords, where good SEO is required.

Essay writing is an important part of school education. Not only in schools, essay writing is very important for many other careers.
Many people search for essays and speeches on the internet.

Millions of people around the world travel by air and train. Most of the people check their pnr status frequently before actual traveling date.
E.g. in India, people usually don't get a confirmed train ticket and they can’t travel without a confirmed ticket. So they keep on checking their PNR status.
You can see the volume of the PNR status keywords.
Though, actual status is available on the official railway website but you can also create a PNR status website and add the same tracking software in your website.
You can hire a developer from Fiverr to develop a WordPreso plugin and use that plugin on your home page. You need to create a request on Fiverr so that Fiverr sellers who can develop this plugin can reply to your request. You can hire the best developer who can develop it for less than 50 dollars.
I have given the Fiverr link in the description.
Similarly if you check keywords for flight status in USA or other countries, you will find many keywords that people are searching in Google.
