2

In case you don’t have any niche you want to blog on or you want to change your blogging niche because your current niche doesn’t fetch you money, am glad to tell you that you are in the right place to get your problem solved where we will list the best blogging niches in Nigeria.

This article is specifically for those who want to get themselves involved in the blogging business and those trying to get a direction for their blog. It contains the list of all blog niches, and what to consider when choosing a niche.

Choosing a Blog Niche is like choosing a business. Before one can choose a business, some things must be considered. If proper consideration is not put in place that business may end up being a failure.

For instance, a good businessperson can’t go into a business he has no good idea about or business he has no passion for. The same is applied to choosing a blog niche.

In Choosing a Blog Niche, many things ought to be considered, but we will only be looking at three of them.

What is a Niche in blogging?

A Niche is a wide broad subject with several topics you can blog on, I made this simplified definition of niche in my last post in case you still don’t get the definition of niche.

In a university, there are many colleges like health sciences, engineering, art, etc and these colleges also have several departments like mathematics, chemistry, French, mechanical engineering, etc.

University is the website, a blog is the college and niche are the departments.

They all work together and that’s why you cannot have a niche without a blog or a blog without a website.”

What to consider when choosing a blog niche

1. Your Passion

Passion is essential when selecting a blog niche. It is always advisable to go for a niche you have a passion for.

If you pick a niche you have a passion for, you will never get tired of blogging, and writing quality content will never be a problem for you.

Regarding this, the first question you should ask yourself is, “what am I passionate about?”

The answer to this settles it all. The following questions may also be necessary;

  • Do you have a hobby – something you like doing in your free time?
  • What kind of topics do you like to talk about?
  • Do you enjoy reading, if you what?
  • What and what do you always search for on search engines?
  • What kind of pages do you follow on social media?

After getting a topic you are passionate about, you should make sure that you have good knowledge of the topic. Although knowledge develops with time. So you can as well build yourself around the subject matter.

2. Profitability

If you want to start blogging for pleasure, this will not be necessary. Most bloggers in the world their fortune from their blogs.

If you aim to be like them, Then you will have to choose from the profitable niche, if that you have passion for is not profitable.

Since it is not of passion to you, then you will have to invest lots of time to develop yourself around the profitable niche.

To know how profitable a niche is, go and check the affiliate programs under it. As well as the CPA of the niche.

3. Potential Audience

The next thing is audience size. If the niche market is small or big, it will be tough for you to reach the audience.

So how to know if a niche is small or big?

The answer is, that if you cannot come up with ten blog posts ideas for your niche, it means your niche is too small.

At the same time, you need to check the number of people who are interested in your niche. If there are available competitors in the market, it’s a good sign that people care about it.

You can also use keyword research tools like SEMrush to check how many people are searching for the keywords which are related to your niche.

Now you have to debate on what you want to blog about, you can’t be talking about just anything because blogs that talk about anything and everything are not always successful.

We are talking about a blog here not a forum and that’s exactly why we provided a list of 100 profitable Niches and sub-niches with a large number of readers in Nigeria for you to blog on.

  1. Thanks for this article. Pls I’m new into this blogging stuff. I also run a tech blog, writting majorly on gadgets and electronics tips. But the problem here is that I don’t get traffic, and the blog age is more than 3 months now.

    Pls suggest what I can do sir, or should I change the niche?

    • My advice, keep writing good content, do not copy and paste, and your content should be at least 95% plagiarism free. Check your competitors on those keywords you want to rank for, compare their content and yours, then try to make your content better than theirs. Finally as a new blog, it won’t be that easy to get traffic, you will also work hard to improve your blog DA.
