Just been reading a post over at DP, someone asked is there such a thing as a bad niche to get into. A lot of people answered the guy and many people said things such as: entertainment, music, gaming, sports, insurance, warez.
Now I haven’t really been in any of those niches expect sports which I started a Euro 2008 blog, but with the fact that England didn’t even qualify for it, my passion has really gone for the subject, so I couldn’t really say if it was a good niche or not.
However some people insist that picking a niche that you like and have a passion for is the best way forward. I think on the other hand that this is not always the best option as you could be really passionate about making your own curtains for your house (lol bad example I know!, but you get the point), your not going to make much money from a site based around the topic.
On the other hand if the topic you love has a good following with a lot of other people who enjoy the same thing and you can see affiliate marketing being able to be used then this could be a good niche to go into, because as you already have the passion for it you are likely to keep interested in the site for a lot longer and therefore more likely to be successful.
So is there such a thing as a bad niche ?
Well in my opinion there is, saturated markets with too many big player websites *could* be a bad niche and also niches with not enough following or niches were no buying or money is exchanged.
Thats my opinion. Whats yours?
