The Viral Effect of Niche Video Sites
An interesting aspect of these niche video sites is that Google tends to index each new page whenever a video is watched.
On 9 January 2008 Squidoo Affiliate Marketing Videos site reached no 3 spot on Google for its keyword and the bookmark on Propellor for this site reached no. 8. The site was a week old at the time of this post.

My latest niche video sites:
Niche Video Site Builder - Step 1: Identify a competitive keyword
The niche video sites draw on YouTube videos that are tagged with the identified keyword. So the first step is to identify a high search/low competition keyword in the area of your interest (the "Bum Marketing" method).
Niche Video Site Builder - Step 2: Locate an affiliate product or program
The niche video site scripts enable you to add your own affiliate products or programs through banners, text links or block ads such as those provided by BetterTextAds or FavAds. You need to identify programs or products that fit into the theme of the video site you are creating. Of course, sometimes you will start with the product or program and then determine the desired keywords.
Niche Video Site Builder - Step 3: Purchase a domain name to match your tag/keyword
Video sites that have a domain name that matches their core keyword tend to receive higher rankings in Google (all things being equal). A matching domain name also helps to orient the visitor to the focus and content of the video site.
Niche Video Site Builder - Step 4: Purchase hosting for your new domain
You need to obtain a reliable host that provides you with ample capacity to store the files and manage the volume of visitors. I have used Hostgator for three years now and find they offer the best service. I know that they can accommodate the Niche Video Site Builder Script as I have my video site hosted with them. Their Baby Croc level hosting has unmatched features for the price. Hostgator's service with their online chat is superb and downtime is virtually non-existent.

Niche Video Site Builder Affiliate Program
The Niche Video Site Builder has an affiliate program for purchasers of the script that pays a generous 50% commission.
I have only started promoting the program recently and in the last two days made two sales - so my Niche Video Site Builder script cost me nothing. I can know create unlimited niche video websites for free.
Hint: promote the Niche Video Site Builder on your own video site that you create with the script.
NB. I think the Niche Video Site Builder is grossly underpriced at the moment because it is still in beta stage.
