We are all heading in the same direction.....some are close to it .....others further away....whilst I have actually reached it.....What am I talking about....Retirement.

There are a huge range of lucrative micro niche markets in this sector....you just have to drill down to find them. Social networking sites dedicated to the over 50s are a source of endless inspiration for blog posts and provide great opportunities to interact with your target market.

So here is my list of top social networking sites targeting the over 50s. As I live in the UK you will find many of these sites are UK orientated, nevertheless I hope they will give you food for thought. Global Alexa rankings are shown to provide a rough guide to the popularity of each site

Thank you Iain, this is very relevant to me as my niche is targeted at empty nesters who fall into this age bracket.

So pleased that you will find my post useful. Best wishes

Thank you Iain. I too am in the UK and I will be talking about living with chronic illness, which affects all ages of course but particularly as we get older. I had no idea these websites even existed.
Cheers Cath xx

There's probably more sites out there which I haven't discover. Thank you for choosing such a worthwhile subject to talk about. All the best

This will be really useful to my niche which is women over the age of 50 so thanks so much for sharing this. I am also in the UK, so completely relevant to me :)

May be I should start writing a blog for men over 50, although my site does embrace both sexes. Best wishes.
