Why you have to choose a blog niche to earn money online.

Most of the bloggers earn their money by joining advertising and/or affiliate programs such as Google Adsence, Amazon affiliate.

This advertising programs will pay for you per click, which means that you will earn money once a visitor click on their Ads on your blog, while the affiliate programs will pay for you once the visitor visit their site a made a purchase.

This means : If you want to earn money from your blog using Google Adsense or any other program, then you will need more clicks from your blog visitors.

In this post we will know how the niche can effect your blog traffic, which may effect your income as well.

To get more clicks, you have to get more visitors to your blog first. 

More visitors = More clicks = More money.

The key to success here is the traffic, the internet is full of many blogs, sites and your small blog is one of them.

Before dreaming of being rich, i want you to try to find an answer for the following questions:

Why the users will be interested in visiting my blog?

What is the service, information that they can have in my blog?

Why they will want to visit my blog again and again ?

Is my blog unique or just a copy and paste from others ?


The answer for all this questions are “The content” , if your blog has a great content then you will have more visitors, they will be interested in reading your new articles, they will suggest it to their friends.

But if your blog doesn’t have a good content, then you have to rethink about it again.

It seems that the content is the most important thing to search engines, Google search results prefer the websites that are specified in one or two categories.

The normal user who is trying to find an answer to his question on internet will click on the link that has the detailed answer. You will visit IMDP or Rotten Tomatoes website if you want to know about movies, the reason is you KNOW that this site is about movies.

Some bloggers claim that you can make money without being specific in one niche, their strategy is : "it's good to write about everything in your blog so you will have different audiences"

But I think this is not a realistic strategy for bloggers because:

Because you are working on your blog alone, you will not be able to cover more than one subject from A to Z.

In fact writing about one niche takes longer time that what you might think, writing about two niches will make you more stressed or your blog will lack information.

Logically, a website like NBA website will provide more information, Videos, Pictures about NBA, and this is not compared to News websites like CNN that will include NBA as a sub category in the sports category. And i guess NBA fans will feel home in their team's website.

The new visitors will be lost, they will ask what is your blog about ? Music, Movies and some articles about travelling ?

Unless you have a team of editors, in this case you can add more than one niche in your site.
