01 / Demand
Can buyers be found?
Search volume is one signal. Existing traffic, repeated questions, retailer depth, and specific comparison language can also support the case.
Niche fit diagnostic / six visible inputs
Does the build case hold together?
Answer six commercial questions. The tool exposes the weakest assumptions before they become an expensive website.
Demand matters only when merchant depth, product runway, evidence access, positioning, and distribution also hold.
02 / Intent
Is the search commercial?
Commission terms and buyer-language patterns help distinguish an investable publishing model from broad curiosity.
03 / Product runway
Is there enough to publish?
A useful affiliate publication needs meaningful product variation, alternatives, and questions—not just one attractive phrase.
Important limit
A score cannot validate the whole business.
Commission terms, hands-on evidence requirements, legal risk, link acquisition, and your ability to keep publishing still need human review.
