Feeling depressed? This will cheer you up. Depression help is a decent niche to make money from. The money isn’t all that great, but there aren’t very many ups and downs because of so many advertisers.

The niche is saturated with ads. Some ads are very funny. My favorite one is “Online Depression Therapy, Professional Counselors Will Listen And Advise You. As low as $0.99/min”. Wow, how low can you go?

Most advertisers in this niche provide either legitimate or alternative depression treatment methods, including herbs, inspirational videos, self-hypnotizing CDs, retreats and (of course) “God will lead out of depression”.

It’s really strange how we, Americans, became a nation on Prozac and that depression pills are prescribed to teenagers. But let’s face it – depression is a multibillion dollar market for pharmaceutical industry, psychotherapists and New Age quacks. You can’t ignore trends like that.

In order not to violate Google TOS, I rate niches with my own star system. ** - $0.20-$0.30 per click average, *** - $0.30-$0.50 per click average, **** - $0.50-$0.70 per click average, ***** - $0.70-$1.20 per click average. While I don’t mind sharing information on ***** niches, I don’t make this information publicly available because it would quickly kill these niches or get Google pissed off at me.

All AdSense niches were tested by me personally and your results shouldn’t be very different, unless your account was smart-priced, too much time passed since my testing, MFA got a hold of the niche or your site or traffic source sucks big time.
