Quick Tip: For a top-level overview, you can visit Google Trends and put in niche keywords to research the number of people are looking for information in that specific niche on Google in general.

Shopify has an affiliate program. I’ve been using Shopify for the past 3 years and I absolutely love what it does for online businesses. So I sign up for the affiliate program and promote it during my speaking gigs, in blog posts (like this one) and I also share it with my network of people who are into starting their own eCommerce businesses. In return, Shopify gives me $58 for each person that signs up as a result of my referral. The people that I promote Shopify to don’t have to pay a higher price. In fact, by virtue of me being an affiliate – I am actually empowered to give special promotions and discounts to people who sign up via my link.
