Is it difficult to find the correct niche?
I have been writing for a while now and have been trying to focus on the correct niche. I have improved as I continued to write many different hubs. Do you think it is the way to go to write more to get that niche or do you have another idea?
I've found my assortment of niches by writing on a variety of topics that interest me or that I have some degree of expertise in. I've decided which topics were dead ends and which ones were winners based on what gets shared by my readers the most.
None of my more appreciated niche topics have much at all to do with my areas of professional expertise. You'd think as a former award-winning specialty florist my best niche topics would have something to do with floral design. You might also think as a former sea-life aquaculturist with print published aquarium articles that sea-life and aquarium topics would do well for me. Nope. Neither area of expertise has yielded a profitable online niche for me.
I have instructions for finding your niche(s) the way I did in one of my hubs but it seemed inappropriate to mention it by name here.
To date I am experiencing with different niches. I think the correct niche depends on where your interest lies. For instance, if money is of concern then it seems that one needs to focus on profit type niches. If one wishes to share or educate then an area of expertise is in order.
One needs to make up their mind as to where their interests are and be willing to accept both nonprofit and profitable results.
A good money making niche recommended is the finance world, but if financing is not your expertise, and writing about it is difficult...well, there's a problem.
If jewelry is your niche and you can only make a small amount of money but you enjoy making jewelry. All I can say is "Hang in there until you discover that piece of jewelry that can be a goldmine for you." Or continue to make and write about jewelry for the enjoyment of the adventure.
1. The correct niche is niche you like!
2. What you like = what you are more interested in and obsessed with
3. What you are more interested in you will make a better content about it
4. The better content = everything!

Please be aware that the high-competition niches you've chosen to create new sites for will be competing with professional websites with professional writers and professional, magazine-level editors and photographers.

I’d like to start by explaining that my articles are all published to niche sites except one which is still pending consideration. I’ve edited and revamped these articles to death. I’ve waited for these changes to kick in despite that, less than 30 views per day on some that seem to perform on a...

The blog post made it clear you're interested mostly in brand new hubs for the niche sites. If you release a list of topics you'll be making niche sites for, we can write new hubs on those topics.You'll have to do so eventually and doing so now will give us time to create enough content for each...

This has got to be some sort of joke. This site is not an easy place to make a fast buck. I knew that when I started. I then did the apprenticeship. It hasn't done me one iota of good. I have written well over 70 hubs, some of which were HOTD. My earnings in the last week are [redacted] ...
