Choosing niche topic

My previous attempt to build profitable niche blogs is quite a failure. I still maintain 1 out of 3 blogs but it’s sort of hanging there (read: no direction).

I will start mind mapping all over again. Let’s see, my purpose of creating the niche blog is to share and to earn. In a nut shell, if I want to monetize my blog, I gotta pick a topic that has readers and able to gain traffic. Besides that, the topic should be something that I am passionate about or at least have an interest in it. Else, how do I write and share something that I have no idea at all?

Now, instead of sorting out my interest, I will start from the topic that can make $money$ but too bad I have no interest/no knowledge/no idea about:

1. Foods
I don’t cook. I ever thought of translating my mum’s recipes but the ingredients names are too complicated. Review on the eating places is impossible too because I seldom go out eat and the price has raise nowadays.

2. Blogging and making money
I don’t earn more than $1000 per month and I have no 1k unique visitors per day. Full stop.

3. Technology & gadget
Ask me what is the latest model from Nokia, I don’t know. I know how to use computer, that’s all.

4. Photography
I have no mumbo jumbo DSLR. I snap pictures with my old Canon Digicam in auto mode. What with shutter speed, wide lens, etc?

5. Home & gardening
My house has no garden but a small plant pot. I don’t do what so ever fabulous decoration to my house. I don’t spend time googling about interior and furniture although I adore IKEA products.

6. Traveling
I love travel~! But my financial isn’t good enough to support me traveling. Going to KL once in a few months time ain’t a travel for me. It’s the same old destination.

7. Fashion and beauty
I love make up and dress up. Too bad, no $$$ to indulge myself more. I have very little knowledge about it too. Not the right person to talk about maternity clothes.

Next, what I like to do that could be the profitable niche topic:

1. I like watching Asian drama (especially Taiwan and Singapore) since few years ago. I will googling about the drama info, the actors and actresses, the lyrics, everything related to the drama.

2. I’m a freelance designer. I research about design stuff, the vector pack, the brush, the tutorial, and so on.

3. I watch E! entertainment channel a lot. It has fashion do and don’t, celebrity news, reality show, true hollywood story. A lot to dig from here.

4. I like digging about relationship issue. Break up, problem with the ex, brownies relationship (read: younger boyfriend), friendship issue, etc. Been there, done that, have an interest in it.

Well, I have the image in my mind already. I’ll continue with the niche blogs once I finish with my blog design. The 4 hours black out has deduct my working hours. -__-”
