Hi it is hard to come up with niche ideas and then roll with them. I have four and thought I knew a lot about them and guess what I don't lol. I would give yourself time to really think about what you want your niche to be. Don't give yourself time restrictions take as much tie as you need. Toss a few ideas about here at WA I am sure there are plenty of people who will help you.

Hi Dianne,

It is not easy to come up with a great niche idea straight away. After all, we are human and have had so many different life experiences that greatly interest us along the way.

I think it is harder to find your ideal niche compared to writing and creating niche sites for others.

Take your time, do not pressurise yourself and the right niche will come your way. Research is important but it does not matter what other people are doing.

Your niche is you, it is your personality, your interest, your design and your creation.

You will get there :)

Smack,... Smack,... Smack... I hope not. Keep on truckin'. Cheers... :)

Good luck with it Dianne,you can do this.

Be prepared for a big smacking!

You can get it done

Have you seen this traning? Jay explains an approach that I like, and he takes the first 2 weeks to research niches and keywords before even starting a site. 6 Week Schedule to Profits

I believe you will make a final decision tomorrow Dianne. Yes you can!

Dianne,

I am so sorry that this has been a frustrating experience so far. Just a quick word of advice if you don't mind. The name of you site,is unimportant, as long as it is a little catchy. The topic is a different story. I do not know why you scrapped previous ones, but I can tell you I was tempted to scrap mine. (fitness is the broad category, fitand50online.com the site name. I started doing some searches and found tons of site already with similar names and they all looked better than mine! Pictures of sexy middle aged people, and I am just a normal looking guy, And even when I do get that sculpted body I am not one to rip off the shirt and start flexing for pictures. No offense to anyone but that just seems stupid and vain to me. I widened my site a little to give me more leeway, I talk about physical fitness, mental fitness, financial fitness and spiritual fitness. Where the keyword research comes in is in my posts. In general, I make my posts about what I am interested in and passionate about, and I squeeze in the keywords that are going to get me some rankings.
Your site is you talking to people about what you are passionate about. Keyword research is important, but it should take a back seat to passion. Without the passion, you can have the best keywords in the world and you will come off flat. Stick with your passion, even if it means resurrecting one of the sites you scrapped. You kind of have to do a dance between being broad enough to get some leeway on keywords, while at the same time, being narrow enough to get and hold an audience,

All the best to you.
