An ezine is an online magazine.

If you look in supermarkets and corner shops you will see lots of magazines on many varied subjects from computer gaming to health foods and fashion to photography - there are lots of subjects out there that people, both men and women are interested in. Most, if not all, of these magazines have a subscription option where you can pay for a whole years worth of magazines and have them mailed to you. Most of these magazines don't just have information on the topic in question but also show advertisements for other similar themed magazines. However, they all contain information on that particular subject that they are geared towards. Some of them also have free gifts attached to them each month as a temptation for people to buy, such as demo computer games for you to try out.

All of these ideas have now come to the Internet and ezines are very popular - even the 'real' magazines are being put onto the web for people to read online.

The point I'm making is this - if you were to set up an ezine on a particular subject, you could fill it with articles that you have either written yourself or use Private Label ones that you have tweaked. Affiliating with others and putting their ads in your ezine would also give you a chance of an income. Rather like a membership site, your customers would have to pay for the ezine either on a monthly basis or a yearly subscription. By having a free e-book each month available to them (where the license permits) would give them a reason to stay and continue purchasing your ezine. You could also have available for sale e-books at a discount price for members only and they could be on various different subjects for the reason that one of your members may want to purchase it as a birthday present for someone.

You don't have to stop at one ezine either - you could have a website with ezines on all different subjects and your website visitors could then choose which ezine they would like to purchase all at one shop - much like a supermarket!

Starting an ezine is just one idea of niche marketing.
