How to get a niche in affiliate marketing?

For example, many people are promoting weight loss products but where do they get the contents to write about? Do they actually buy the products first to test it out themselves before pitching for it? I have interests in a wide variety of things but I don't know about a specific thing well enough to write a whole blog about it. How is it possible to start this way? What the first steps to starting affiliate marketing? Is it finding a niche, getting a web hosting site for a blog, then blogging about the products? What's google adsense and what does bidding for words mean?

1. HI, Great question. Whether your promoting http://www.likeajam.com which is a replicated site i.e. content to already put there by either the company directly or people WHO DO have a deep knowledge about the products. http://www.iWowWe.com/oveview is a similar deal but for a service from a technology company. The beauty is that almost 99.9% of the time these companies will provide your the "FIELD" leadership the marketing material to promote the companies items. Its your task to formulate the provided information into different formats. Personally I do not promote an product I have not personally used or subscribed to. I don't know if this is common but for me its been working already for a number of years. It helps being genuine. I could highly recommend visiting youtube and watching marketing videos from experts such as Frank Kern. This guy is the top of the internet marketing business today.
2. Well if your interesting in trying out products then that would be great. i work for a health and wellness business and you get the products and you can blog about them if you want and let everyone know how great they are. email me for details.
3. You should choose a niche that has high search counts on Google AdWord keyword tool and fewer amounts of competition pages on Google. In general term some niches like weight loss, get ex back, make money and self help are very popular and they are high in demand. So, if you choose an affiliate product in any of these niches, then you will have a good market.
