Indian niche: Best use of my time?

I want to use my time efficiently. In order to do this I need to promote the most undersaturated niche. From what I'm seeing, it's the Indian niche.

I've come to the following tentative conclusions.

1. Indian sites convert at an average or better rate compared to other niche sites
2. It's easier to get traffic to an Indian site because there aren't as many.

Is this true? I'm basing this on information from sources I don't know very well and I may even be misreading what I'm seeing.

I thought the same way you did about the indian niche, and built some sites promoting it, but couldn't find a site that converted good for me, I sent 4 or 5 sponsor sites each like 1500+ clicks off link list traffic and only got a few signups and a couple chargebacks, but it could have been my weak sales skills or the traffic just wasn't from the right places, I do know that some people make a good chunk of change off of the niche, maybe you would have better luck... it is one of the niches that not a ton of people promote yet I'm thinking of giving it another go after learning a few things from hanging around this board for awhile

I get the feeling that the big market is ex-pat Indian men. I've been wondering if I should add some comments in Gujarati to see if I can pull some in.

Trouble is - I only speak English and a bit of American.

I considered that niche also. I began by doing some searches on google and looking at various sponsor sites. I came up short with both. No one seems to be promoting the niche because there are no real Indian sponosor sites. I've come across a few Indian sponsors but they didn't feature REAL East Indian women (some had Ebony girl content doctored to look Indian).

I wonder if maybe the traffic for that niche is too much "Indian". Knowing CC companies, and their foreign CB rules, it could just be a matter of the surfers not being able to signup for the sites. I see it in happening in some other niches that tend to be European or Asian surfers.

I also read an article a long time ago(on AllOfEm, I think) on using different color schemes for different ethnics. The one that pops to mind was that in India RED stands for virginal, therefore the red wedding dresses, etc.

Greenguy's stats for Indian traffic. It seems like middle-of-the-road conversion rates. So IF the traffic is there and IF I manage to get a lot of it (and use good sales techniques), I should see some money coming back. That's how I'm thinking, anyway.

Like I said, though, it's not my favorite niche. What other niches are undersaturated?

GGs stats are nice, but not everybody is gonna get conversion like that, I picked a site off of his stats and it did horrible, another one I tried (not because of his stats) on his stats list is going 0 for 1300 for me right now,plus that is probably pure link list traffic which converts a helluva lot better than free sites and galleries.... it is hard to say because different niches work for different people, give it a try and see what happens... if it goes good keep doing it and if it doesn't look for something else to spend time on

If I see one more gallery of that slut Anjali I may snap, crackle, and pop. I've personally seen very little Indian content outside of hers and that may be one of the problems with that niche. Every siller fucker promoting them is using the same three sets of her content. In a country with the population of India, you'd think someone else would be willing to take off their sari and show their sexy brown bits.

I'm doing well with Anjali. The difference with her is that she moved to England 5 years ago, so she's got the Indian cultural background with English sexual morality.

If it's not your favorite, why promote it at all? Well I sort of like these Indian chicks. It seems like they may do alright in bed...

Sell what you like. If it's oversaturated, just be better.

8 cents/click unique or 4 cents/click raw - very respectable for me.

That's what I'm seeing. Average conversion, lots of traffic.
