    I have a few things I could write about - Lights (my first niche), Ableton Live, San Diego (where I live), but I don't quite know which I want to write about.  Either way I'd like to find another niche, so when I'm bored of writing about lights I can switch to something else.

    How did you find your latest (profitable) niche?

      To answer your question - I didn't find it. So much as fall over it. And as for you and new niches - what are you looking for? A little push in the right direction ... or a hearty shove in the middle of your back?

      I can do both - you only have to ask big_smile

    you can normally find a good idea of a new profitable niche or an idea of a niche you might have via this web site nichewatch.com

    i don't have a niche.

    i see people mention them though.

    well i kind of write about dolls so maybe that is my niche and i don't know it.

    all i can suggest is just write about what you enjoy otherwise it could get kind of tedious?

      dolls is a broad term

      a niche would be something like

      1960's life size porcelain dolls

      I do my new topic research by taking advantage of other peoples keyword research

      http://hubpages.com/hub/Writing-for-mon … nt-revenue


      You can write about what you enjoy, find a niche and have profitable subject matter, you just have to put your research in

      I usually scratch my niches.

      Seriously though I've been writing hub after hub on future car models from around the world. I've been concentrating on hybrid and electric cars.

      Then I found out Glenn Beck criticized them and a few weeks later went on and on about how much he liked the Tahoe hybrid that GM lent him. 

      Oops! I couldn't let that go...it took off. It's been bouncing from top hub to within three of top ever since.

      So I learned something. Write about something controversial and be sure to sprinkle the articles with adwords that attract high paying ads.

    I don't worry about finding niches, I just write about topics I enjoy.  I've found one or two good niches that way.

              Maybe a pork sausage instead, I think the bacon would be wasted on you.

                  I could easily write a hub on pig care and it would be great, my old teacher said I had a vivid imagination. Although she was bending over at the time and I got detention.

        Are you really wanting to write something? If you want help, ask. Plenty of others do and they receive lots of help and encouragement, why not you?

        Instead of writing in here - go write offline, then transplant into a couple of capsules - dress betsy up in a Hallowe'en costume, you know - Betsy Loves Hallowe'en ... Providing She Ain't In A Pie, lace it with some of your wit and you're away smile

        And if betsy won't play ball, show her a tin and tell her you know just how to fit her in it. I'm sure she'd stand for a shot dressed as a Ghost Pig or maybe even a Banshee Porker.
