My interest is actually in people and how I can really help them out. In my country Uganda we suffer a lot of unemployment and this is one of the reasons why poverty is on the increase. So my niche is in relation with job creation and solutions to poverty especially among the youth whether they are educated or not. Please look at my proposed niches and how you can guide me to the most appropriate one. This is how I feel I need to offer my help to people wallowing in endemic poverty in my country and elsewhere on the African continent, and I know there are a lot of people out there especially the developed world who are willing to offer support to ending this menace.
I thank you and waiting to hear from you soon.
Hi there Stanley! Thank you for getting in touch with me through my website, I really appreciate it. You have chosen a fantastic niche here and I really applaud you for taking action like this. You have already joined Wealthy Affiliate as a premium member which is a great start. Personally I would say that the Poverty Solutions (.com) website is a great domain name if you want to get into this niche. There are lots of ways that you can make money online with a website. You could teach anything on your site from creating and selling arts and crafts to passing on your knowledge about building an online business. The key to success is in reaching as many targeted people as possible that need your help.
Building an online business can mean working in reverse a lot of the time. By that I mean you would first of all need to create a solution to a problem and then go out there are and find people that need help with that particular issue. The training on Wealthy Affiliate will guide you on finding your target audience, but your real success will begin when you start creating website content on a regular basis. The more issues that you can target related to poverty and creating your own online job the better. The more areas you can focus on, the more people will visit your website. You could even create a charity donation button on your website if you wish. But your first course of action should be to secure a great domain name, which you have already found! And then create a constant stream of content dealing with the issues that people are facing.
Hi Andrew is a pleasure to speak with you and all that comes with you too!
I also created several websites and learned a lot from each of them, some were successful others not so much. I recently started using a tool called niche reaper. It helped me to choose my niche and profitable key words. How do you choose your keywords and your niche? Do you use any tool?
Hello Mark. It may sound hard to believe in this age of technology, apps and shortcuts, but I don’t actually use any tools to help me find profitable keywords. I actually don’t really look for profitable keywords at all. Within this website, if you look carefully you will find that the main focus is to provide help and support. Its a huge gap in the market and a great tip if you would like to try it. Instead of focusing on what you can sell to people, try instead to focus on how you help them and how you can find a solution to their problems. Most people are looking for something when they search online, sure some people are simply looking to buy a product, but many are searching for information that will help them with an issue. You can provide more help and assistance by finding a solution to everyday issues, and in doing so you can then recommend a product. But be sure that the product that you recommend is of the best quality, a product that you personally believe in yourself.
Going back to your question, I do use the keyword search tool provided by Wealthy Affiliate. But I simply use that to discover what issues I can concentrate on in order to write a page that will help people. Its a slightly different approach to the traditional method of selling in order to make money online. And its much more rewarding too! Try it for yourself.
It is a problem I see over and over again. People choose niches that dont work out inthe end. Either ethere is not enough to blog about or they find the topic uninteresting. I myself started out in a nicheabout chess, but in the end the competion was too strong.
Yeah its really common. The problem is that sometimes people are really interested in a subject and without really thinking about it first, they jump right in. Like you say, sometimes there just isn’t enough to say about a subject to make a long term blog, this is one of the worst things that can happen. If you don’t have enough subject matter then you simply won’t be able to rank for lots of keywords. It really does pay to follow some sound advice and do a bit of research before you start.
You have given great information on the questions that you should ask yourself before getting involved with a niche.
I generally look at the amount of products and also the price of the products. The more products there are, the more reviews you can write. I always go for a niche that has at least 100 products that I can write reviews about.
Wow, sounds like you are very experienced in creating niche review sites. Forward planning is always a good idea for creating content for your website. Forward planning the review of a hundred products is no quick or easy task, but its good to know that there is plenty of subject matter to write about.
