The first step is to figure out what niche you want to blog about. A 'niche’ is basically a category.
🌸 When deciding on a niche, it's good to ask:
- What am I good at?
- What am I interested in?
- Is there a demand for my niche?
🌻 Tip: I recommend choosing a topic that you like! It will make it much easier to blog about.
🌸 Some common niches are:
- Recipes/cooking
- Nutrition
- Finance
- Home decor/interior design
- Gardening
- Homesteading
- Non-toxic skincare
- Dog care
- Travel/booking/cruises
- Technology
- Software-as-a-service (SaaS)
- Gear/musical instrument reviews
- Christian
- and more
You can use a tool called Google Trends to search for and analyze certain niches and keywords to see how its popularity fluctuates over time.
E-commerce is another type of website; it’s simply where you buy and sell. There are different types of products you can sell online, such as digital products (i.e. online courses, social media templates, graphics for stationery, etc.) and physical products (i.e. 100% soy or coconut wax candles, T-shirts, custom jewelry, dog collars, blankets and beanies, handmade soap and skincare products, items made with 3D printers).
(If you just need a site for your business (for example- you’re a Real Estate professional or a business owner and are not planning to update your site frequently, a simple, static site would be enough.)
