What a Narrowed Down Niche Looks Like

One of the few big challenges a new member of WA will encounter is to decide on a niche for their website business.

Many will have an idea of what that niche will be based on the explanation of what is a niche, yet many may also struggle to come up with a narrowed down and focused niche.

This brief post will give you a great example of such a niche.

SPHYNX CAT

What is a Sphynx Cat? It is a special breed of cat that is considered hairless. This cat actually does have hair but it is so thin that it looks hairless and feels like chamois.

Now Sphynx Cat in itself is a more narrowed down sub niche in the broader cat niche, but how could someone make money in this niche? Clothing for Sphynx Cats.

Do not laugh. This is a popular niche market. Clothing for pets in general is a very popular niche market and people will and do spend thousands of dollars on their pets.

Why am I bringing this subject up? Firstly to help anyone struggling to find a specific niche to see what such a niche would look like after you focus it down.

Secondly, today while driving I heard radio announcers talking about a website one had seen called Nudie Patooties, talk about a brandable name.

This website, which is within the top 5 on the first page of Google, was getting some free advertising by a radio announcer on a major New York City station because she was a cat lover.

Pet clothing is a focused down niche but can be more narrow. Dog or cat clothing would be more narrow, but narrowing it down to a specific breed, is a great example of a really focused niche.

If you are having problems coming up with a narrowed down niche from a broader niche market like computers, weight loss, cooking, travel, and other broader niches, check out the training below where I narrow down several popular broad nich markets.

Paul.

You are welcome Paul. I am happy you found it helpful.

Thanks.

You are welcome.

"Niche narrowing - the beginning of a successful journey to making money online."

Great post, Rob. And, hey, I just gave you an additional title you can use for free!

:-)

Jim

Thank you Jim. That is a great title. :-)

That is how we market as an online marketer.

Yes it is.

Very good example. I too took a niche I thought was narrow. But upon further inspection is a chasm. Thank you Robert.

Have a great day.

Snowing in Syracuse, what else is new!

Thankfully it is not snowing here in the NYC area, just very cold.

What is the niche you had to further narrow down?

Lifestyle-change Way to many sub niches!

Yes. Way too many sub niches but many of them are quite popular. I know if I would choose that niche I would focus on the currently popular sub niche of vaping.

Many people trying to quit smoking are turning to vaping because it is far less harmful. Almost everywhere you go nowadays you can see vaping shops opening up. It is quite popular.

I actually vape myself. Agree with your assessment.
I am going back to my original site, promoting WA. For the next year anyway, Kyle is gong to show me how to make money.

Yea I picked a way more broad niche than I thought so I am currently breaking into down into several posts

Which broad niche did you choose?

comforters and bedding. I am breaking it down right now to different age groups and different kinds things like that

That is a good approach. Narrowing it down to an age group like bedding for kids would be a great niche.

I agree and doing so I am adding a lot more content to my website. Which I am really getting how much that helps

Thanks for sharing, your blog will help many of us to understand better to narrow a niche to work with it.

You are welcome Alejandra. I do hope that this can help members realize the process of narrowing down a niche.

This is a problem faced by many newbies and your explanation really does make it more straightforward.

Thank you John. For myself, I never had a problem coming up with a niche. But there are many that do and I just want them to know that finding a niche is a lot easier than they think.

Oh my the title of the website has me in a fit of giggles.
Thanks for the laugh!
A very helpful post for anyone trying to get their head around niches.

I agree. The name of that website is funny but it is memorable. So memorable that it got mentioned on a major U.S. radio station.

Wouldn't you just love to hear your website mentioned on the radio and not because of paid advertising?

It is a bit of geniusness. Yes I would love that!

For your niche, read up on the origins of this Sphinx Robert. It was reputed to be a lion originally in which a pharaoh had his likeness carved. The disproportionate head to body size suggests this!

That I had not heard of before but hairless cats have been around for a long time. The more common breed lines now come from Canada, Europe and Russia.
