The Most Searched Topics On Blog
1. How To Make Money
This is the obvious one. The real elephant in the room.
Many beginning bloggers often find themselves asking if they need to start a blog on making money to make any money.
It’s a great question because all of the blogs that teach you how to make money seem to be run by people that only make money through those types of blogs.
Luckily, this isn’t the only niche that can do well with making money but it’s one of the easiest…
…if you can show that you are making money yourself already.
Too many bloggers jump into this niche and take the wrong approach. They pretend that they have the knowledge to share with others about making money online but this audience isn’t stupid.
They know they have other options so if you can’t show them in some way that you know what you are talking about then you won’t be making the type of money you thought.
So does this mean that beginning bloggers can’t enter this niche? Of course not.
The way I would approach it as a beginning blogger would be to treat it more like a blog journey. Chronicle all of the things that are working for you and not working for you. Let people follow you along from day 1.
The catch is, is it better to do this with the how to make money blog or a secondary blog? My gut tells me you should do it with a secondary blog but that means a bit more time. However, it gives you a bit more authority for when you are ready to launch your book or course.
2. Personal Finance
This one can easily fall under how to make money depending on the approach a blog takes. Some personal finance sites teach you how to save money through frugal living while others show you how to make money with investing and side jobs.
The strategy here though is to cast a wide net around frugal living and then you show people that you can live frugally and make a ton of money at the same time.
3. Health And Fitness
Health and fitness is one of those tricky niches because you can get a ton of traffic from it, but it can be difficult to monetize if you don’t know what you are doing.
Starting off the best approach to go is with affiliate marketing. This works well because your audience is actively searching for solutions to a problem and a nice Amazon (or wherever) link to a product that helped you can do wonders.
A lot of blogs in this niche are usually run by teams of people or fitness trainers.
4. Food
This one is notoriously difficult to make money in because the audience isn’t really looking to buy things, they just want recipes.
The best approach is to build up a large audience and use ads to supplement the business. Probably the most well-known blog that does this is recipe blog, that teaches bloggers how to start a food blog. This goes back to niche #1 and the strategy that I talked about before of starting a blog in a different niche and then teaching people how to duplicate that success on your how to make money blog.
5. Beauty And Fashion
This one for me is the holy grail of successful blogs because not only can you make money but you also gain access to cool events.
The problem though is that it is HARD. While the other niches rely on great written content, beauty and fashion are more reliant on your personality and your ability to continuously get yourself out there.
Most of the big beauty and fashion bloggers focus on YouTube and Instagram because they are visual platforms. Once they build a following there they slowly build out their blogs.
Unsurprisingly, their blogs become more lifestyle blogs that cover a number of different categories beyond fashion and beauty. Why? Because the beauty and fashion niche is all about an overall lifestyle that you live.
