Understanding the Full Potential Of E-Commerce In Nigeria

Monday, April 14th, 2014

Nigeria, now known as The Giant of Africa, was recently declared as the region’s biggest economy, surpassing South Africa. Almost overnight, Nigeria was increase by 89% its current GDP, which is now worth USD 510 billion. This follows a recalculation of the GDP to include the rising “Nollywood” industry, as well as the banking, telecoms, and e-commerce sectors.

E-commerce and online trade make up two of the biggest contributors in the increase of the nation’s GDP. Over USD 1.3 billion has been invested in the retail industry, with USD 15 million of that channelled to the online trade industry.

Retail in itself is a major driver of economic and employment growth. With over 80 million Nigerians residing in metropolitan areas, the country has great opportunities for existing and new investors to take advantage of the online retail business.  A report from the Oxford Business Group indicates that foreign and local investors are already expanding their domestic retail footprints in the country.

Nigeria’s population alone makes the country the largest consumer market in Africa. With the introduction of more Internet providers and the availability of mobile devices in the country, e-commerce businesses in Nigeria can easily reach their full potential, if business owners know how to take advantage of the ripe market.

One of the biggest hurdles to e-commerce in Nigeria, however, is online accessibility. Despite the increase of mobile telecoms, broadband capacity still isn’t widely accessible. In 2012, only 32.9% of the Nigerian population has Internet, despite the increase of Internet service providers in 2013. Most of the population can access the Internet via their mobile phones though, thanks to the introduction of GPRS and EDGE connectivity.

Nigerian E-commerce

E-Commerce in Nigeria on the Rise

Despite this, a handful e-commerce companies have won significant investments and are now considered rising stars in the online trade business. Jumia, an online retailer that began only with three employees in 2012, currently has USD 35 million in investments, over 150 partner brands, and more than 500 employees. The company was awarded as Best New Retail Launch in 2013 by the World Retail Awards, proving that e-commerce in Nigeria can be profitable and successful.

Similarly, Konga is another Nigerian e-commerce and online retail company, which has won investments of more than USD 24 million. Launched in 2012, Konga is currently the 16th most popular website in the country, according to Alexa.com.  HumanIPO also selected Konga as one of the African technology start-ups of 2013 due to its impressive and consistent service. Konga also recently launched a buy-and-sell platform where users can set up an online storefront with Konga.

Thanks partly to the success of these two e-commerce sites, online trade and retail in Nigeria maintains a positive outlook. Online retailers have been luring shoppers from physical stores, offering convenience and a greater variety of products offered. Online retail customers have the option to pay for their items on delivery, or through online payments via credit cards.

Analysts are actually optimistic that the upward trajectory in online retail will continue to rise, as more Nigerians start to see that local online shopping will be faster, more convenient, and cheaper. Add to the fact that more and more people are connecting to the Internet via their mobile phones and tablets, the dot com business is a viable way to profit in Nigeria.

Plans are also already underway to improve and increase Internet and broadband connectivity in the country. More accessible Internet access can pave the way for other online businesses aside from e-commerce—banking, services that offer online credit card comparison, affiliate blogs, consultancy blogs, and so on—to enjoy better opportunities for not only for business owners and investors, but also for local consumers.

Nigeria is still a developing country, despite the increase in its national GDP. With the proper investments both offline and online, and a consistency in government efforts to improve infrastructure, Nigeria is well on its way to joining the exclusive club of emerging economies in the world.

3 Easy Steps to Make Money Blogging

Thursday, May 17th, 2012

Make a great living online by following these simple steps

Thousands of people around the world enjoy blogging, and most think of it as a small hobby that they couldn’t hope to live on; but it’s surprisingly easy to turn your blog into a modest, successful small business. There are already plenty of blogs that discuss Google Ads and affiliate marketing, so we’ll focus on how to make your monetization strategy (whichever you choose) more profitable. There are no “dirty tricks” here—these are all tips to make a blog that is both useful to your readers and attractive to legitimate advertisers.

1. Find a niche

For your blog to attract the attention of users, advertisers, and search engines, you need to select a theme; ideally, one that isn’t already populated with big-time sites. For instance, if you want to start a generic cooking blog, you’ll be competing with thousands of others, including giants like Betty Crocker and The Food Network, and your blog will never get past the twilight zone of page 8 on Google. If you select some specific, underserved niche, however, you’ve got a shot at reaching people.

Before you nail down your blog’s theme, do a bit of Googling on the topic. Check to see how many people are searching for key words related to that topic, and what pops up on Google’s front page. If very few people are searching for that specific niche, you’ll struggle to bring in traffic; but if the key words are bringing in a healthy amount of searches, and you’re competing with other small personal blogs, you’ve got a good shot at topping the Google rankings and becoming an important source of information on that topic.

2. Create user-friendly content

This is more than just “writing well”, although that is important (and could be a blog post all to itself). People read online content differently than they read books and magazines, so you need to modify how you write to suit an online audience. Follow these tips:

  • Break up your content: Reading long blocks of uninterrupted text is harder online than it is in print, so you need to separate your content. Select the best funny videos or images related to your topic and use them to chop up your content into smaller, easy-to-read pieces.
  • Numbered Lists: You’ve probably seen a lot of “Top 10” lists on the web recently, and that’s because it really does draw more traffic than content posted in other formats. Numbered lists provide an easy way to organize and simplify your content so that busy readers know what they’re getting into before they click
  • Keep it brief: With few exceptions, most online readers lose interest after about 1000 words, so if your post is longer than that, you might consider a more focused topic, or breaking up your post into installments.

3. Get Connected!

This is by far the most important way to start pulling traffic and getting money from your advertisements. Find successful bloggers (or better yet, a blog network) that is related to your niche, and offer to guest post on their sites.  Don’t be afraid to submit high-quality content in guest posts; you might feel like you’re sacrificing good work, but it’s a small price to pay for the awareness it will create for you and your blog. At the bottom of each guest post, most bloggers will allow you to include a link to your blog; and that’s how you’ll bring in users and start earning real ad revenue.

As you cultivate relationships and continue creating trustworthy, quality content, other bloggers will begin linking to your site on their blogs, increasing traffic directly and improving your Google ranking. Keep expanding your network, reaching out to more and more blogs and establishing connections. It’s this growing network that will draw in ever-increasing traffic to read your posts, click your ads, and bring in revenue.

Wait, why do you want a list of affiliate programs that accept Nigerians? What do you want to do with the list?

Listen to my ramblings, then I will give you the list that I have sent to several Nigerians that asked me (of course it is free, as in free air because you can equally get it elsewhere for free).
