Modern sponsors have educated themselves on traffic generation or have hired those who know how to do it. You won't see many sponsors anymore who you aren't competing against you for the same traffic. But that's business. If they can sell their product themselves, that makes them all the smarter.

I agree. Although it's difficult sometimes. I think that no sponsor can ignore a profitable niche. They are forced to jump on the train, even when it means competing for the same traffic.

Well, that's okay as long as they are really serve the niche with more than just a matching domain name. There are still too many sponsors who have sensational looking niche sites in their lists, but no content inside to promote these sides.

I mean hard to imagine that they think that webmasters say "...okay, they tricked me in, but because I'm already here I will drop my plans and promote one of their other sides..."

Anyway, searching for good sponsors demands actually a big part of my worktime. Is that normal? Hey, if I had a wish free, I would drop even a night with Claudia Schiffer for a big list of sponsors approved and found usefull by successful veterans.

Micro-niches, well, surely profitable. But my domain name is Sexworld. Not related to any niche. I can offer asian content (it's a tw domain) or all niche content in my opinion.
It's a litte off topic, but did you see any good Indian ones on your search for sponsors?
