Benefits of Niche Blogging – Blogs for Online Marketing

Yes there are blogs that are broad and successful like the Nigeria Technology Guide, but they are few. Niche blogging is the recommended route for beginner bloggers and there is a reason for that. It is very hard for an individual to succeed with very broad blogs. Broad blogs succeed if there is a team of bloggers with each blogger focusing on a niche.

Most successful blogs have a clearly defined theme some may be broader than others but there is always a focus. Here are a few benefits of niche blogging:

Easier to build a reputation


Focusing your blog on a clearly defined theme makes it easier for people to associate your blog with the niche making it easier to build your reputation on that niche. This makes it easier to develop and position yourself as an authority in the niche. Remember that one of the conditions for making money from blogging is to have a reputation. So, writing a blog about everything will only delay your progress. So, niche blogging is the way to go.

Build a Loyal Following


Niche blogging makes your blog attractive to visitors who have interest in the niche. For example, a blog about fashion will attract readers interested in fashion. This can lead to a loyal following for your blog, which can guarantee regular visitors to your blog.

Niche blogging will make your blog a focal point for people interested in the niche helping you build reputation and traffic. This will make your blog attractive to advertisers and marketers who are interested in targeting your type of audience. So, niche blogging can make your blog very valuable and relevant for online marketing.

More Search Traffic


Niche blogging does not only help you build reputation with humans, it also helps you build reputation with search engines. Niche blogging will make search engines to associate your blog with the niche, which with time may give you advantage in search terms associated with your niche.

Better ranking for those search terms will improve traffic to your blog

Easier Advertiser Targeting


Niche blogging makes your blog easier for advertisers to target. It also makes it easier to attract advertisers. Since your blog focuses on a clearly defined niche and attract targeted audience via search engines, blogging on a niche makes it is easy for advertisers to decide whether your blog is the right feat.

Niche blogging also attract better targeted Ads on contextual advertising networks like Google Adsense. This leads to more user engagement with Ads on your blog and more money in the bank for you.

Easier to sell Niche products & services

Because your blog is focused on a niche it could become a great marketing platform for selling products or services that will appeal to interest groups in the niche. In fact, the whole point of niche blogging is to create a platform for marketing to a clearly defined audience.

what are they looking for

To make good money from web publishing, you must find out what people are searching for in the subject you provide contents on. You must satisfy this need if you want to make money from web publishing. Publishing what you want will not be productive; to make money you must publish what your visitors want. You must adopt this marketing philosophy if you are serious about making money as a content publisher. Popular topics on the internet include tips, reviews, How Tos, and so on.

How are they looking

Knowing what your visitors are looking for is not enough, you must also find out how they look for this information. Most people search for information via search engines. This means that to drive traffic to your website, you need to rank well on search engines. To rank on search engines you need to discover keywords that people use when searching for the kind of content you publish online. Ranking well on relevant keywords in search engines like Google, Yahoo, MSN, Search and so on will drive the traffic you require to make money as a web publisher.

Where are they looking

You also need to know where visitors to your website concentrate their attention. This helps you in your Ad placement strategy. Placing your Ads where your visitors concentrate their attention ensure that your Ads get seen. More Ad visibility will usually result to more money for properly matched Ads.

However, ensure that the Ads you place on your website are relevant to the content and does not obstruct the flow of your visitors. Your Ads must add value to your visitors.

who pays the bill

Web publishers make money from advertising. Ads can come from advertising services like Google Adsense, or from Affiliate programs like Amazon.com. Web publishers can also make money by marketing advertising spaces on their website directly to advertisers. A web publisher must not advertise for other people, they can make money advertising their products, services and skills directly from their website.

Google Adsense is the most popular and effective online advertising service today. Google Adsense is a pay per click service that display contextual Ads on websites. You make money with Google Adsense when a visitor to your website finds an Ad so interesting as to click on it. Because Adsense Ads are matched to your content, they are likely to be interesting to your visitors and as a result generate more clicks and hopefully more money. In Google Adsense, more clicks will usually result in more money.

Affiliate programs like Amazon offer pay per sale instead. You earn some money as commission when a visitor after clicking an interesting Ad on your website also goes ahead to buy the product at your affiliate website. You make money on your value and volume of sales.

When marketing for affiliates, you will choose what you advertise. Make sure you advertise only product and services that will be relevant to your visitors. Matching your affiliate Ads properly, will result in more sales and as a result more money.

In the same vain, when you choose to sell advertising space on your website or promote your products and services on your website, make sure they will be relevant to your visitor. To make money from web publishing, your keyword must be adding value to your visitors. Ignore your visitors (customers) and sooner or later you will have no business and no money.
