I want to start up a few blogs to collect earnings off adsense but not the cheesy way....i am actually going to do the work and put the research into each one but how do i uncover a niche besides my passions?? Is there a one, two, three step type method that can be used to mine out some untapped niches?? Oh my passion are computers...any ideas on a good computer niche...
Yeah there are several tools that you can use : With this tool you can search a word or phrase and find out the average daily amount of searches : http://tools.seobook.com/keyword-tools/seobook/index.php Then simply go to Google and search the phrase or words that are of interest to you, with the search result you will see the number of competing sites, use "around words" when searching to see exact number of competitors. With this tool you can see what is hot right this minute / hour and the current fluctuations in the number of searches, this is the Google trends tool, it's great for Digg, Stumble upon and similar sites that can get into Google search results really fast, and you can again use Google to see what the competition is like : http://google.com/trends/hottrends
Another way to get ideas is to start backwards, and look at products that are selling well (such as going to clickbank and looking at the best sellers), and then think about where you can market these products. Matt
