Computer Tutor
Computer Tutor is a hot niche where you teach people how to use their computers and the Internet effectively. With more new people logging on everyday, the need for classes to teach people how to use navigate their systems as well as the Web effectively is rapidly growing. Children are learning the computer as they grow up but older generations are taking classes in droves. Surprisingly, older people (40s and up) are doing teleclasses too. That's where you come in :-) There is a huge need for computer tutoring for folks who did not use the computer in their school years. It's a great little niche and if you have a lot of computer experience, it may just be the niche for you! People around the world are taking classes online and it is certainly possible to take a class on the computer to learn how to use it...as long as you have one! As funny as that sounds, it's a great option for a variety of folks, ie., active adults/seniors or the disabled, who can't easily get out. It is also perfect for Stay At Home Moms...and Dads too, of course.
Picture This...
If the Computer Tutor niche interests you, think about how great it would be for someone who would like to go online to learn his/her computer and how to use the Internet.
Suppose they land on a site which is written in a helpful, friendly tone. Furthermore, this site they landed on (yours!) after entering the keywords "how to use the computer" offers instructions in easy to understand steps. It offers different approaches to using the computer/internet. There are choices for total beginners as well as for semi-computer literate.
This site offers e-mail classes, links to other helpful sites, and an RSS feed that will enable them to see at a glance the latest thing on the internet or for computers. There are articles about software that the may be interested in. Well, you get the idea!
Can you picture yourself developing this type of information-rich web site? Do you have technology knowledge and experience that you could share with others? Then becoming an online Computer Tutor could be just the niche for you!
How To Get Started As A Computer Tutor
The first thing you'll need to do is decide who you would like to target. Seniors/Retirees? Work At Home Moms? It's entirely up to you. You could also keep your target market very general but if you niche it tight, you could quickly "own" that niche.The next thing you'll need to do is build a Web site. If you already know how to do this, great. If not, check out
Site Build It!
It's an all-in-one Web site building, hosting and marketing suite of tools that simply cannot be beat.
It comes with a site builder but you can also incorporate your own MTML created with Dreamweaver or another WYSIWYG program if you'd rather. The hosting part is not that big of a deal (lots of cheap hosts out there) but the marketing tools are the best on the net. SiteSell, the company that developed Site Build It! has released a mind boggling number of new modules this year. More on how you'll earn income in just a bit. Next, you'll want to develop an outline of sorts. What will you initially introduce to your visitors? What will you add later? Will you focus on teaching computer skills? Internet searching techniques? Software reviews? Start with what you know and love and build from there. In order to get traffic to your site, you will need to create a lot of content and cover many different subjects which people will find using keywords. Once people are on your site, you will be virtually teaching and recommending.
How Will You Earn Income?
Well, there are many options depending on how you approach your niche. But here's one example to get you thinking. Let's say you are going to teach people how to use computer software. You sign up as an affiliate with a software company and you put links on your site within your content which your visitors can click on if they are interested in purchasing the software they just learned about from you. If they click and then buy, you get a commission for that sale. This whole process is called "pre-selling" by some, and is very effective on sites which offer lots of high quality theme-specific information.
There are many other ways to earn income through a Web site. You cand use Google Ads, do referrals, sell products and more.
So there you have it, an idea "seed." Toss it around for a few days and let it sprout. An online "Computer Tutor" (hey that kind of rhymes!) is a niche that is showing lots of demand. Can you be the one to fill the supply?
One last thing...if you like the idea of becoming a Computer Tutor and want to investigate it further, there's an excellent free download that shows you step-by-step how to promote a service on the Internet. It's called the
Service Sellers Masters Course
I used this Course time and time again when promoting
