Make Money With A Niche Blog

I get questions all the time about Niche Blogging or a Niche Blog and how to you make money with it so this is what I am going to talk about on today’s post. First let me kind of dissect this topic a little bit! What is niche blog anyways?

A niche blog is simply focused on a specific subject of a general and usually popular topic. Let’s say video games, they’re HOT right now and everyone is crazy about video games, this creates huge competition.

So in order for you to eliminate the competition and leverage this business you need to find a niche around video games like Wii by Nintendo for example and you simply focus on promoting or blogging just about this.

Ok! But the big question that everyone wants to know is "How Do I Make Money With a Niche Blog?" GREAT question! For some of you that are regular readers here or a subscriber of mine you know I always talk about my wife’s website and how she makes money with it.

She makes her money through adsense and this is the best way to make money with a niche blog based on my own experience. I’ve tried different ways like incorporating affiliate programs but over all adsense and chitika (text link).

They’re similar in some ways you simply put a tiny code on your site and relevant ads will show on your blog and if your niche is popular and in high demand and you have relevant content and incorporate Google adsense or chitika text links people will click these ads and that’s how you make money.

It’s not an overnight thing you need to do some work and research. If you really want to make money with a niche blog you need to research what people are looking for so when you talk about this on your blog the adsense will show the ads relevant to your topic.

Visitors arriving at your blog are looking for specific information and Adsense tends to solve that problem. How do you find what people are looking for and what is the hot seller right now so you can start your niche blog with what people are wanting or looking for?

Since I love you guys and I always share my secrets with my readers and subscribers this how I go about before creating a niche blog

First I need to know what people are buying and once I found out what it is I choose a niche that has less competition then I will blog about it and put adsense along with the relevant content.

So here’s how I do my research on finding what people are buying and looking for, First I go to these website below:

Yeah! I used eBay to find out what’s HOT and what are people are looking for. On the eBay home page it shows you the top ten MOST popular searches that poeple are looking for and that would give you an idea on what your niche blog should be about.

eBay.com

Second I go to amazon.com and I check the Amazon Bestsellers links for all Departments and it will show you everything on what people are buying and looking for and again this should give you an idea on what to blog about.

Amazon.com

I also go to Shopping.com and find out "What’s Hot on Shopping.com" this is usually on their home page all this will help you to find out of what people are buying and searching for.

Shopping.com

Another one I go to is Download.com and I look for what is the most popular downloads if I want to niche blog on software’s, games, anti-virus software and so on.

Download.com

All these site are a goldmine of information that will show you what people are buying and looking for and this will help you decide on what you should be blogging about. I also use Google Keyword Tool and I will type a keyword that people would usually use when looking for something and I use this keyword on my blog post.

Google.com

I checked Yahoo Answer too just for reference…

yahoo.com

BTW: the links above are NOT affiliate Program

Well that’s all I do when I research for on what to blog that I can make money and this works for me all the time, I mean my blog and site are making money so I know it works you just need to put it into action.

That’s it and feel free to comment! (Don’t be Shy!) also when you comment and you have URL to your site it will show on the sidebar of this blog and guess what you’ll get some of my traffic!

Please do me a huge favor if you know anyone that can benefit from this information please forward this post by using the SHARE THIS below, I’ll promise you they’ll thank you for it!

Till Next Time and God Bless You!

Hi Albert,

Excellent resources for finding out what people are looking for.

Find a hungry crowd, and give them what they want (or more info about what they want).

I haven’t used Shopping.com or Download.com - I’ll have to add these to my research tools.

Thanks,
Mike

Great Post again Albert. I’ve started researching hot niches and started building new focused blogs. If you can provide us with some Web 2.0 tricks to publicize our blog that would be great too.

Have a good one.

Pierre

Albert great post…had a few in there that I forgot all about, or should I say that I didnt really think about when it came down to niche research. I will have to readd those back to my list for sure. On another note Happy Belated Birthday. I have a similar laptop with a finger scanner to log in. It’s nice to just swipe and go..lol.
