An important part of choosing a niche is examining your interests and the online activities you already have. I have been surprised at people who have wondered how I made money online. When I would visit their sites and social profiles, they would rave about certain products and promote them on their networks. But none of this was monetized. A passion for something will win even in the most competitive market.

I also believe that when looking for a niche you should go for “a known one” i’d rather have a piece of that big pie than venturing into the unknown!

Without question, we need to choose a niche that is close to our heart as we can’t bluff our way to write something we know nothing of.

You can experiment with a unknown niche, but it can take you time to learn enough about it. So, it’s better to write about something you are familiarized with, so you will write with more fluency.
