31 Niche Websites In March

March is almost upon us, and for many it is a time for spring cleaning.

It is also traditionally when new life is brought into the world, so it is an ideal time to clean up some niche websites and turn some ideas into revenue streams and to experiment a little.

I am frequently asked by email all kinds of beginners questions

  • How to choose a niche?
  • How to go about keyword research?
  • How to promote niche websites?

    I am going to steal some quotes from Franck

    Taking about John Reese and Blogrush

    1. Release crap (improve later, but start making money with your crap)
    2. Test everything

Watering The Plants, Digging Holes & Housekeeping

Offline situations can have quite a devastating effect on your blogging, and whilst a lot of my niche sites run on autopilot, that is a lot more difficult for this site.
If I was going to be travelling for some time it would be possible to hand over the reigns to a possible guest author, or to publish some content with a forward timestamp, but because this blog is intended to be a community site, where I interact with my audience, if there is going to be a short delay in my publishing schedule, I tend to take the less complicated route… so be it.

Usuggest – Limited Inventory

Mashable have just mentioned Usuggest as a possible revenue stream for bloggers. From what I can see they have a very limited inventory.

As an example I did a quick search for “Diabetes” – a massive marketplace and loads of products… or there should be.

Google following meta redirects

I have previously documented how I moved my old blog from http://niche-website.blogspot.com to this domain http://andybeard.eu

Google Reader, Splogs, Linkblogs, Blog Readership

But the Google reader has major flaws, which noone is really talking about. In fact I have noticed a growing tendancy for reporting thee flaws as a cool feature, without any emphasis on the negative aspects of using these “featues”.
