I want to start a make money online blog but market is oversaturated

    That's right...
    I believe I have the knowledge to talk about online entrepreneurship as I've been involved in this field directly and indirectly for years now (although I'm only 22).
    So I was thinking about starting a new blog but immediately reality smacked me in the face. There are so many successful or semi successful blogs in this niche that starting a new one seems like a big challenge. You know its like everybody has a piece of the pie and all that's left is crumbs.
    Now don't get me wrong I'm not scared I won't make it, I just feel that if I invest as much time/money on another project I'd get way better results.

    What are your thoughts on this?

    I know there is a similar post about this topic down the page but my additional question is: do you think there is a more specific niche, a niche in a niche if you will, about making money online? E.g make money with ebay ecc.
    I'm not saying I'll start a blog about a topic I'm not fully comfortable with, this question is really more for curiosity...

    See i would tell you only one thing - if you have nice knowledge about the make money niche and can contribute some thing extra which others cant do it then you can excel that blog very easily.

    As there is always shortage of good knowledge.

    Hope it helps...

    Good advice there infogle. You need to find something nobody else has, it can be done.

    You are referring to a micro niche. Usually considered to have less then 30,000 competing pages, (if you do your own keyword research).

    And yes they are out there, and they can take time to find.
    **HINT Check my sig**

    If you are worried about wasting time and money on a blog that's about making money why don't you simply apply what you already know and save yourself time and make even more money?

    The fact that you made this post proves that you should NOT follow through with a blog aimed at How To Make Money.

    It won't work for you :)

    I believe with your knowledge you can make money since there are so many people out there don't know on what you know...

    I would say it's a terrible idea. Way too saturated, low payouts, too many spam sites. Start a blog about something with high paying keywords like Medical Devices....You'll earn $2-$3 per adsense click, versus .02 cents with a 'make money blog'. Trust me.

    that's crazy.. do NOT hesitate man!!

    The HOME BIZ/MMO market, the HEALTH and BEAUTY market, and the RELATIONSHIP/DATING market are the 3 Top markets in the World..

    oversaturation is an excuse most people have... there are millions of people that don't know what you know.. literally!!

    start the blog.. with Micro Niches
    - MakeMoney with ebay
    - MM with yahoo answers
    - MM with surveys
    - MM with information marketing
    - MM with affiliate marketing
    - MM with CPA offers

    the possibilities are endless
    hope thsi helps
