Having Trouble Finding a Niche? Stick With What You know

Hello Everyone,  I have been at Wealthy Affiliate now for one month and I have learned a whole lot that I have been trying to put into action. I cannot lie and say this has been easy because it is not, plain and simple. What I can say is that I have decided that I need to stick with something that I know and for me that is music. Check out my picture, I made a big mistake, I tried promoting Strip-That-Fat by writing an article about belly exercises. Anyone can see that exercise is just not my strong suit, so I had to regroup and find something that I do know about and it definitely isn't exercise. You see, I have played guitar for nearly thirty-one years and I decided that that was my strong suit, my niche, my passion. I just completed a little website entitled "Electric Guitar Basics Online" which is located at http://www.electricguitarbasicsonline.com. and although this is brand new and I have not made any money yet, I have a much better outlook because I can write a ton of articles about music just sitting here thinking right off the top of my head. I suppose what I am trying to say is just "Stick With What You Know". I just cannot effectively sell others on something I have zero knowledge about or I do not live. You see, a niche does not have to be hard to find if you "Stick With What You Know". I still have two other sites that I need work on terribly and I will continue working with these sites, but for making some money right off, I am really working with the product I am promoting on my guitar basics online website because again, it is what I know.  I really hope this helps someone out there who is struggling with finding a niche.
