Over the last year I have moved all my new sites over to wordpress and away from static html. Having them as niche blogs is something that I find can be profitable and easy, or challenging and difficult depending on how you handle the day to day posting. All my Niche blogs are only based around five to ten related keywords in the chosen niche.
When setting out a new site I never intend to add more than ten pages of unique content to it in the first three month. This gives me time to get a feeling for the site and the niche, and decide if I got the keywords, traffic numbers and seo correct at the start. It is for this reason that must think about the best way to make the most out of niche blogs, and finding the right niche is a good start.
When searching for the right niche for any blog, be sure to look at the prospective audience, and your abilities to keep the blog up to date within that niche over time.
If you are thinking about doing a blog about horse racing, yet you have no time to watch horse races, it might not make sense to try to do a niche blog on the subject. Instead a good way of finding a niche is by looking at what it is that you do have time to do, and then creating a blog based on that instead. This becomes less possible if you decide to increase your blog numbers and then it becomes much more a numbers game
But if you’re at an early stage in your marketing you really need to just get started. So you have selected your blog topic, and now it’s time for you to become an expert. No matter how much you think you know about your niche, chances are you could use some brushing up on the topic.
So spending a few hours reading within the blog subject is a must. Feel free to check out rival blogs, as they will give you an idea of what is popular in this niche, and what is not.
The most important part of getting the most out of a niche blog is becoming the go to place for information in this niche. This is by ranking in Google from the start and getting repeat traffic or viewers from social media sites. This is where your keywords make or break your site, too much competition and you have very little chance of breaking into the main traffic, to little interest and you will never get the numbers to your site you need to make good money.
I never make a single penny from the people who never see my sites only the ones that do. So after your blog has a good solid foundation it’s important to get some offsite seo in place to start getting the numbers of eye balls on your pages up. That means creating a blog that is constantly updated, and is accurate in the stories relating to the keywords. If you do this with your niche blog, expect big time results.
