# What is Too Much Niche?

Too Much Niche (TMN) is an AI **niche-site builder** for WordPress. You give it a niche and how you plan to make money; it plans the whole site first — then writes the articles.

That plan-first order is the core idea. TMN doesn't just generate one article at a time. It first builds a **Topic Map** — the hubs, pillar pages, individual articles, search-intent mix, internal links, and a publishing calendar — so every article you generate has a clear job in a coherent site, not a pile of disconnected posts.

## How it works, end to end

1. **Start with a niche.** Tell TMN your topic and your monetization model, and set the scale and structure in a short wizard.
2. **Get a Topic Map.** TMN generates the full plan — hubs, pillar pages, and individual article "nodes," each with a format, a search intent, internal links, and a target publish date.
3. **Review and generate.** Edit the plan, add your own topics, then generate articles one at a time from the queue. Each is composed from a catalog of content blocks, with real products or your business details wired in automatically.
4. **Publish.** Articles arrive in WordPress as native Gutenberg posts (as drafts by default). Review, then publish or schedule.

You stay in control at every step — TMN proposes the plan and the articles; nothing publishes until you say so.

## One engine, five ways to make money

The monetization model you pick reshapes the whole plan — the topics, the article formats, and the blocks that appear:

* [**Affiliate marketing**](/monetization-playbooks/affiliate.md) — recommend third-party products and earn commission, with real products pulled from affiliate networks.
* [**E-commerce**](/monetization-playbooks/ecommerce.md) — promote your own catalog from WooCommerce, Shopify, or any product feed.
* [**Display ads**](/monetization-playbooks/display-ads.md) — traffic-first content built for ad revenue (AdSense, Mediavine, and similar).
* [**Lead generation**](/monetization-playbooks/lead-generation.md) — turn search traffic into calls and inquiries for a service business, using a Business Profile.
* [**SaaS & digital products**](/monetization-playbooks/saas-digital.md) — content-led growth that funnels readers to a trial or checkout, using an Offer Profile.

See [Monetization models](/core-concepts/monetization-models.md) for how each one changes what TMN builds.

## What you need

* **WordPress 6.8+** (PHP 8.0+).
* **The Content Egg plugin** — it powers the product and content blocks. The free version is enough for most models; affiliate product search needs Content Egg Pro. See [Why TMN needs Content Egg](/content-egg-integration/overview.md).
* **A Too Much Niche license** — Starter, Growth, or Agency. See [Activate your license](/getting-started/activate-license.md).
