Make Money Comparing Products

I really like this idea, but must confess I’ve never earned passive income from a setup like this before.

I’ll be putting something together soon though and really wanted to share this one with you.

So here’s the deal; find a niche where there are a ton of products, all with semi-complex feature mixes – or basically any type of niche where customers are going “I don’t have a clue what to buy”.

Now create a site that firstly shares a bunch of useful content (think tutorials, how-tos etc) on the niche and secondly review every product/service in that niche (the pros, cons, verdict etc) – bonus points if you communicate this info through a mix of text, photos and video.

Plus create a comparison table page where you have every product listed and rated on a number of features, all side by side.  Customer can finally decide what product is right for them via this birds eye view table, plus the in-depth individual review articles/videos.  Next to every product there is a link to the purchase page of the seller (eg Amazon), and well you guessed it, those links are affiliate links.

PS this idea is just a more finessed version of the well-known “Reviews Site” idea, hooked up with Amazon affiliate.  Something which Chris Guthrie covers in-depth here.
