When it comes to niche there are many things connected to it as it is the main foundation of your blog its directs you on what to post and there are many people who just choose a niche and creates a blog and hope to make money with it well it doesn't work that way, as I will list the things which you must consider before choosing a niche for your blog

1) you must consider what you want to write, don't choose a niche which you will later be out of ideas on things to post this are what many blogs face that pushes them to copy other blog posts and rephrase them well most of those posts don't get indexed on google so why waste your time?

2) you must choose a niche that is not saturated, example of saturated niches are news and entertainment etc. these niches are hard to rank on simply because they depend on trends meaning if you post a trend now in the next 2 minutes it will be outdated so u need another topic to pull traffic and trust me you can't get traffic from google when it comes to news niche because you can't out rank site like BBC, legit, vanguard etc

3) some niche gets more cost per click than others so you might want to think of money too before choosing a niche.

Choosing a niche is one of the most critical decisions you have to make if you want to venture into blogging or any other kind of online business. Niches is very important because it will help you to specialise in a particular area and therefore giving you the chance to grow professionally in such area.

There are different niches you can choose if you want to venture into blogging but before then there are certain things that must be put into consideration. I always advise people to choose niches in which they have some level of knowledge of because it will be easier for you to write articles and be able to answer questions professionally when there is any in your blog.

It will also help you to be passionate about what you are doing and that alone can go a long way in helping you to become successful on the long-run. if for example, you have proper knowledge about making money online then it will be easier for you to create content around it and actually teach people real ways of making money on the internet.

People that do not have much knowledge in this area will definitely not be able to do well on a long run and therefore, hampering their chances of succeeding.

The most important thing I will personally put into consideration will be the demands of the niche I will be concentrating on because that is one of the things we have to put into consideration when thinking of establishing anything to generate money. Obviously when there is high demand for the niche there is a possibility that I will get high traffic which can increase the potential of me making a lot of money from my blogging business.
In the cost of determining the best niche for blogging , I will also put into consideration my location because this will also play an important role in the success of a blogging business.

Your location will also determine how you'll be getting most of your traffic and what niche I choose to deal with should also be accepted and must be popular in my location to help me generate good traffic . .

One of the best things to consider before choosing a niche is 'what you have passion for, that can give values or solve people's problems. For example, if you have passion for writing about how to make money online, start writing about it as soon as possible and make sure you give values to your blog post readers.By doing so, you will surely become a successful blogger in no time.

Don't choose a broad niche, it is very difficult to rank in the broad niche. For example, don't choose a Pet niche, choose either a dog niche, cat niche, or any pet of your choice. When you choose a broad niche, there will be a lot of competition and you might not be able to get organic traffic. When you niche down, you have a high chance of getting ranked high on search engines and also organic traffic.
Choose a high CPC topic. When you decide to choose a niche, make sure the topic gets high CPC rates. Do you want ads on your site that get you 10 cents per click or ads that give you $1 per click? You obviously want higher-paying ads. That's why you need to focus on a niche that gets a high CPC rate. Avoid choosing a niche that gets you a low CPC rate.
