How can I tell if my niche (parents raising children bilingually and multilingually) can actually bring me an income? I feel that it can but I don’t know where to begin to figure it out. Or do I simply do what I can, give it a try and see where it goes? When do I know that it isn’t going anywhere and it is time to switch to something else entirely? Any tips are helpful!
Thanks,
Corey

Darren,this article is very helpful for all of us, bloggers.
I started to issue some blogs, some time ago, thinking in monetize them, without any success, talking about cell phones, moleskines, etc. We must understand that even thinking in money, we must write about something we really know and we like.
As an example, I am now issuing a blog about Blossom Dearie, a jazz singer, recently died, that I love. It is a pleasure for me to research about something I like.
I live in Brazil, but the most important market is in English Language, for this reason I started by the English version of the website and then I will translate it into Portuguese. Anyway to buy mp3 musics online, there are no boarders.

Excellent! If I could write like this I would be well happy. The more I read articles of such quality as this (which is rare), the more I think there could be a future for the Net. Keep it up, as it were.

Niche blogging is absolutely the way to go if you want search engines to recognize your blogging interests. Great topic here, you have identified some important points here! Its good how you write about your own experiences and relate back to the topic you are blogging about.

I never read a blog until yesterday – 03/18. But I’m just starting a new online business and my business coach is educating me in the ways of doing business online. Blogging is the first thing that he has tasked me to do. I have to read at least ten blogs on any subject and possibly leave comments. I find your blog about finding a niche very interesting, considering that this is exactly what I’m in the process of doing. In the next few days I will have to find a niche so I can start a blog. I have never been much of a writer but it looks as if that is about to change. Because your article has at least sparked my interest, I will re-visit your blog from time to time. I’m sure that I will learn something about blogging.

I have a very little idea to create a niche blog. I am more interested in general topics that may come my way.

Hope one day I can create a profitable niche blog as is said in your article and to make money at the same time.

Trading forex has helped me get out of debt, although it took a while to get the hang of things in terms of terminology and market factors.

At first I’m a bit confused about niche and topic. However, I understand it better after reading the earlier post. I think I have to remember it as “categories” instead of confusing “niche” with “topic”

Try something that you really great in, even you think that it is weird. Why? Because that is not only you do that ‘weird’ stuff. Millions of people are doing that ‘weird’ stuff.

Niche Blogs Appeal to Readers? i don’t really think so.After reading the first few pages of 31DBB, I decided that I will concentrate on ‘Wellness’ information, instead of jumping around writing in a wider topics. I have created my elevator pitch, but I think it’s too long. Right now I’m using: “Sharing wellness info one story at a time” but I’d like to change it to “Sharing wellness stories one at a time.”

Yes I agree all of your point. Niche blog work better than other blogs. We can drive targeted traffic on niche blog and hence also can monetize our blog.

I agree I have tried a few blogs, but the one that works is very niche, just about the Flip Camera

Niche blogs are quick way to create an impression on readers mind. It makes a home-like feel for the readers.

I think choosing a niche is definitely a good thing to do. That way, people know what to expect from you when they land on your blog. That being said, how do you survive in a niche that is already quite saturated? I think thats one of the reasons some people diversify their blogs, to try to get a larger crowd.
But like you said, this might not always work the way it was planned to. I never looked at the monetization in that angle, so I’ll definitely bear that in mind. Thanks for that!
