Posted on Sep 7, 2008 in Affiliate Marketing, Marketing |

Nanopublishing:

  • An online publishing model that uses a small-scale, inexpensive operation to reach a targeted audience, especially through blogging.  Sometimes communities of shared interest emerge quickly online, such as PaidContent.org and Gawker.com

glossary bookTo be honest, I don’t have a lot of experience dealing with nanopublishing.  Although it seems to me that this is just blogging to a super targeted niche audience.  Thoughts?

C’mon, someone with more expertise in the area of nanopublishing school us!

Posted on Aug 25, 2008 in Affiliate Marketing | 1 comment

Niche Sites:

  • A website oriented toward a very specific topic or audience.  Niche sites often have high traffic and items can bring higher prices than on general purpose sites because they serve customers looking for unique content.
