Listing Details
This listing is for an affiliate, Amazon Associates, and advertising business created in August 2016 in the gaming niche. The WordPress site features reviews of accessories that Gamers find useful. The site earns affiliate commission from both Amazon products and from manufacturers of the focus products. One of the manufacturers also pays for advertising on the site. This business has a good diversification of revenue and strong earnings and traffic.
This business requires minimal hours from the Seller. The Seller’s main job is ordering the outsourced the content. The Seller has a successful process to identify what products to review as well as templates for content and will share these with the Buyer. The business also does monthly outreach to manufacturers of the focus products, who send samples to review. The business has these sent to the reviewers. The Seller is sometimes paid to do reviews.
While this niche isn’t particularly seasonal, it enjoys a spike around the holidays because it includes many products that are good gifts. The Seller feels a key opportunity is to develop this into an FBA business. There is also an option to expand into other gaming products. Other opportunities include expanding the 2K+ email list and growing the social media. The email list was created by running a competition. While it has not been a focus for the Seller, the Twitter account has gained 3K+ followers, and Instagram has gained over 600 followers in a short time.
