How to Find a Niche?

Let's begin with the end in mind: "Success in any business always comes back to supplying a product that the public has a demand for and that the market has room for. Find the right niche and you are on the right path."

What does niche marketing mean? Niche marketing is about finding small opportunities on the web, small areas in which people might be interested and for which they might be searching.

Big companies and experienced webmasters are not interested in these areas because they are not important enough. But a small business could be something in which you might be interested.

Perhaps a small mini website will not generate thousands of dollars every month; it might generate 100 bucks, for example. That is ok, if the effort involved in terms of creating this mini niche website is not too high; in this way, you could repeat the same business model again and again.

Taking into consideration that every small business could generate around $100 every month, with ten niches, you could earn $1.000 monthly. Does this sound better? And what if you could create 50 websites?

The first step in to finding a niche market is always keyword research. You need to find small markets which do not have competition. This is not as difficult as you might be led to believe.

Google has just released an exciting tool to do keyword research. It will probably be the only tool you need to find a niche. And best of all you pay "zero dollars" for it. That's right... You pay nothing. Thank you Google! You have made our lives a lot less complicated.

Google search data is something we've all wanted to see for years, but had to contend with less accurate proxies such as Wordtracker and the Overture (Yahoo Search Marketing) keyword suggestion tool.

Google's keyword tool (new and improved) service makes it easy to gauge an existing market simply by looking to see how many keyword searches are being conducted for your target product or service. It now finally shows actual numbers rather than just the relative search volume.

 

good article, thanks.

 

Good topic, I think it is also necessary to analyze the "competition" in specific niche, if particular niche has strong competition either you should target it with collaboration of joint projects or you should target a sub-niche which are generally low risk market.

 

Excellent post.

Great article my friend.

 

might try for long tail keywords, you may find the niche in specific

 

A big fish in a small pond, or so they say. There are so many niches around but I think interest still counts.

Going into a niche like aerodynamics, no matter how lucrative, will bore us to death if we have no interest and it will show in the content.

Thank you for this great piece of information.

 

But remember that google loves big pages so a small page will have more difficulties to promote itself. And it is hard to promote many small pages. It's easier to promote one big thing once.

 

great article, this tool is great for an exact number of searches, but the pitfall is that don't show long tail keywords, so I'll have to continue using Wordtracker, but it's a great tool to measure the real impact of a root keyword...

 

Is this your website delhidon?

Is the initial post more about long-tail keyword research than finding a niche market? Do you need to find a niche market first in order to begin researching keywords related to the niche?

 

Thanks for posting that article, it's very informative.

 

Thanks for the info. I'll have to check this out. I really miss some of the old tools that used to be available before all the search engines became so secretive and Yahoo started to become irrelevant.

Excellent. Rep added.

Thanks for sharing.

 

an excellent post, well thought through and resaerched, although i agree with others that researching the compeition is also critical, it may be a big market but if it's already saturated then you will have to work much harder to get anywhere
