Hi, the best niche market I have ever hit is the one I am in now because I get a lot of traffic and a manageable amount of submissions. Its for the co.nr domain name and because it is so targeted to its topic, I am ranked in top 3 on "co.nr" for all search engines except yahoo. The only thing about it is its not very profitable because the domains are free and users might not have money, that's why its a free directory. The best thing is, Google gave me pr strait away and all the categories are pr4; see my sig.

Anyway, its not a very open niche because only three sites tried to "compete" and were quite literally fly by nights because they gave up in the first couple of days.

I think the best niches are basically the top level categories in general directories because they are all big but not to narrow eg "arts" directory and a "computers and the Internet" directory.
