5 Less Saturated Niche Of 2017 For New Bloggers by MrTechy(m): 6:24pm On May 26, 2017
No doubt the blogging sphere is saturated, as everyday new blogs emerge with different niche.
So to help you avoid wasting hours building a site that will never make any difference in the blogsphere or add a dime to your bank account, today I’ll be sharing with you
5 Profitable less-Saturated Niche of 2017


The worst mistake you can ever make as an upcoming blogger is choosing a wrong niche, choosing a niche you don't have passion for is one mistake i will advice upcoming bloggers not to make. People choose wrong niche for obvious reasons, becuase Linda Ikeji is making it in the entertainment niche and bought herself a mansion in lekki, you feel it must be entertainment or nothing else, it dosn't work that way.

There are high paying and less saturated niche you can make good money from which am about to share with you. Stay clued!

What is niche

Incase you're not familiar with the term.
According to Wiki, niche is denoting or relating to products, services, or interests that appeal to a small, specialized section of the population. Now let's narrow this term to blogging, i could simply say. It's a particular products or services an individual or group choose to engage in or offer the populace, let's take for example Ogbonge blog is based on tech and HOW TO's.


With a less saturated niche you stand a better chance of making it as a blogger in that niche, i can't go into the entertainment niche and expect to beat down those that have been there before me, example linda ikeji has been blogging for almost 11years now and her blog is all about entertainment, she holds 50% of all the people looking for entertainment news, gossip. You can't just come and take that away with your new blog, though possible, but is not going to be easy.

The world is mobilize, everybody is looking for so many information online as a smart blogger or thinker what you do is take advantage of this, provide readers with those information they can't find.
Now the question is[b]"Can i blog on a niche i know nothing about"?[/b] and the answer is YES! Only if you're a quick learner, and also ready to learn (more on this if permited)

While it's true that these niches are less saturated, it's not because Nigerians are not smart enough to find them. It's because only experts in those fields can excel at blogging on those topics (except for religion, which anyone can claim expertise at and not get busted).

My analysis of the niches

As for the health niche, it's hard to make headway in Nigeria because whenever most Nigerians search the web for information about most ailments, the results pages are dominated by monster health sites like WebMD, MayoClinic, WikiPedia, Medline, etc. And it's almost impossible for any new blog to topple those sites in search engines. Competing with them is like creating a new search engine to compete with Google or a new social media platform to compete with Facebook (something even Google couldn't achieve!)

The natural/alternative health niche is a bit less competitive, but that doesn't mean you have a smooth sail. Even here in Nigeria where you might attract people looking for local herbal/alternative solutions to embarrasing health problems like obesity, fibroids, infertility, etc, you'll have a hard time convincing them to buy whatever you try to sell. People have read and tried all sorts of things. So, what they want is live proofs that your so-called products would solve their problems. And you might not be able to provide such. More importantly, people are more comfortable taking health advice and tips from a qualified medical doctor, not a self-acclaimed "Professor of alternative therapy". And most Nigerian doctors have no time to blog.

As for traveling abroad, that's another area where people are very, very careful. No one wants to be scammed. So, they will only trust anyone whose blog posts really reek of expertise and years of expertise. And only seasoned travel agents can fit well into that. There's more to this niche than just going to embassy websites and scraping generic information from there. Peopl will bombard you with all sorts of questions like "How can I get my visa request approved?", "I want to apply for a Canadian student visa, how much do I need for the whole process?". These are questions that only real experts can answer. Such experts are very few in Nigeria, and that status isn't one that can easily be faked.

Someone talked about agriculture. Same applies. People are tired of reading the same old information like "To start a cassava farm, you need a piece of land, a hoe and a cutlass". It goes beyond going to other blogs and rewriting their content. It involves research. Serious research. You need to provide information like current prices of required materials, places in major Nigerians cities where quality breeds can be acquired, smart ways to get buyers after harvest, how sales projections are made, and so on. So, this is for people who are really into agriculture business for years.

Still on agriculture, the only realistic way to blog on it, even for real experts, is to focus on your one area that you've mastered really well. If you're a cassava farmer, blog only about cassava farming. If you try to set up a general agriculture blog that talks about all forms of agriculture, you'll end up providing shallow information that nobody would appreciate. However, it's not unrealistic, a smart way is to interview farmers who are experienced in different aspects of farming, and publish the interviews on your blog. Even at that, your information is unlikely to be of higher quality than that of a blog focused on only one area of agriculture and owned by an expert in that area. Unfortunately, such experts create one-page websites with e-book sales pages!

So, in all, it's not about finding a less competitive niche. It's about having what it really takes to compete and stand out in that niche. Are you surprised that almost every Nigerian blogger is a tech or entertainment blogger? That's because you don't need expertise to rewrite or copy/paste information that readers would still be satisfied with.
