There are billions of blogs out there writing on whatever topics you can ever
imagine, essay, traveling, health, sports, finance, inspiration, spiritual, love,
education, entertainment, e.t.c.
Now, you want to start a blog and hope to make it a successful blog, you hope your
voice is heard among the many sea of voices, you hope of commanding authority on
the internet and dine with the men who make the things that happen, not among
those that read about what is happening or those that write about what has
happened.
If that is your case, niche blogging is the route to follow.
I know you will say, what is he talking about?
What about the Wikipedia? Yes, you’re right to think that way and free to believe in
your thought and opinion. But, do you have that kind of power behind you to move

2. your blog to the top while you blog about whatever comes to the mind?
Most bloggers don’t have that kind of power to run a blog like that, besides you’re
just starting out and want your voice to be heard in time and get the attention
needed.
If you’re still in doubt why niche blogging is better than multi topics or general
blogging, here are few things to consider.
1. Expert.
When you blog about a topic regularly and you’re determine to succeed in it, this
help to move you from novice to expert status quickly.
When I started this blog about a yr ago, before renovating it in march of this year, I
blog about nothing more than blogging tricks, tips and tutorials and each day that
went by I learned new things, new technology, new style, I meet new faces, all these
are well relevant and helpful to one thing, and that’s my blog topic.
In other words, learning and mastering one thing regularly will help you move up the
ladder easily and quickly. You become more comfortable with what you do regularly
and people see that in you, they come to you for expert advice and there you go.
2. Building a community.
One of the best part of building a niche blog is the community you build around it.
Once you have define your blog niche and start putting your whole into it, the
amazing thing that follow is the readers community of like-minded people who
religiously follow your blog.
They know exactly what to see when they arrive at your blog, they can easily
recommend your blog to family and friends who are interested in the same topic.
They take part in the discussion, and contribute to your blog through the comment
form and you’re sure of audience when you’re speaking.
3. Search engine optimization love.
These spiders are like human to some extent, they are more likely to recognize the
food they eat last time and are sure of where to get it when next they want the same
diet.
These spiders like blogs that blog about a topic regularly and more likely to rank it
higher in the search engine result page above blogs with multi topics blogging.
Don’t get it upside down here, blogs with general topics also rank well in search
engine, but like I said above you have more work to do in this regard compared to
niche blogging.
4. Making Money From Your Blog With Ads.

3. Contextual advertising has proved to work more effectively in niche blogging than
general blogging blogs. This is made simple to understand by the fact that the
readers or visitors to niche blog are more targeted to the blog and its ads than blogs
in general blog topics.
When you blog about a topic and grow your traffic effectively, the readers are more
likely to click on the ads on your blog because those ads are well relevant to the blog
topic they are interested in.
If you agree with me and down with the fact that niche blogging is better than
blogging on multi topics, below are some tips to choosing the perfect niche for your
next blogging project.
5 Tips to choosing a Blog Topic.
1. Create Your blog on Passion.
This rule has been told and beaten to death by thousands of content marketers out
there, and is not only applicable to blogging alone but to all business start-up.
Choosing a blog topic that you’re passionate about is the first and most important
step to creating a successful blog that will see you there. Don’t blog about topic that
you’re not passionate about at the moment or not interested in at present.
Every blog need to be updated regularly -at least once a day- blog about topic you’re
passionate about, otherwise you get dried and fade out easily and quickly.
2. Choose a marketable topic.
Your blog topic must be something marketable and acceptable by a group of large
audience, in other words your blog topic must be profitable otherwise you lose
patient and get discourage and consequently, you quit.
Research the market before going with your blog topic, and see the chances you
have to survive in it. Take a closer look at your competitors and see how they are
doing in the field, survey the ins and out thoroughly.
3. Choose a topic you like arguing with others.
Sometimes this is the best step to start a blog, when you find yourself constantly
arguing with others on a particular subject, instead of making it a local debate within
your neighborhood, why not start a blog around it and have others all over the world
to join in the discussion.
There are lots of blogs that are created from this principle, most spiritual blogs,
entertainment blogs, political blogs, religious blog, sport blogs are all founded upon
this idea.
4. Look within yourself.

4. Be yourself and let the world know who you are.
Look within your inner life and examine your life style and see if there is something
about your ways of doing things, or what you enjoy most while you’re a kid that can
be of benefit to others.
You can start a blog based around it, if you discovered that these things are
accepted by large audience and its marketable with good potential of generating
good income in the near future, cause I guest you don’t want to start a blog that
generate nothing at the end of the day, well that’s my opinion, you’re free to decide
what you want from your blogging career.
In conclusion, if you want to start a blog that will make you an expert, generate
decent income good enough to take-care of your wants and need, generate good
quality traffic in time, build community of like-minded people, meet new people and
make new friends, then start a niche blog.
Though, this will as well cost you money and hope you don’t expect anyone to take
you serious if you build your blog on free platform and leverage on all free method
out there to move your blog to the top.
Happy blogging career, see you at the top.
