New doubts creeping in.
Hey everyone! I'm kinda having doubts about whether I can do this or not. I see that some people have many sites and can talk about so many things. But me, I only have a few things i'm passionate about. I'm also seeing that the market is already saturated with almost everything you can think of and really....do they need another blogger to talk about pets, fashion or beauty? Help.

The beauty of online business, is that you don't need to corner any market. You don't need to take away from the big dogs in your niche. You don't need to come up with some innovation that takes the world by storm.
There are millions online and you have the right tools to know what your target audience is looking for through keyword research, right?
It's just like when a grocery store opens. Do we say, "oh my god that market is so saturated! Why would anyone open up a grocery store here?" Of course not, because it doesn't need to worry about the rest of the grocery stores all over the world. It's just targeting the neighborhood it's in.
You're in a global neighborhood. And you're targeting those people in your niche asking those questions you have the answer to. Thanks to the keyword research tools, their searches eventually find your answers, over and over again. And that's where traffic and sales start. It's just a matter of sticking to it.
And you don't need multiple sites. Just one is fine. With every new article you write put it out there. SEO doesn't stop on the page. Off page SEO is all about sharing your stuff on social media, finding forums it belongs in, etc.
You can do this! You just needed some confirmation :)
Yea, I guess is just newbie jitters, my monthly payment is coming up and I was just nervous. But you're right, I don't need to worry if there's another site like mine, I just need to worry about my corner of the world. I'm sure things will get better as I go along.
Thanks
Don't sweat it. I went to yearly membership just so I'd never worry about the monthly payment. $29/month is less than going out to eat by myself. Takes the pressure off.

Yes, they DO need another site, because what we are all missing... is YOUR unique point of view and way of presenting things.
You have your own voice, and there will be people who respond to it. You can absolutely do this. There are over 3.5 billion people on the internet. No matter what your niche might be, there will be more customers who are still in need of assistance and that's where you come in. And that number is growing all the time!
The fact that you have "only a few things" that you are passionate about it also a good thing. That means you can put all your energy into your niche, instead of spreading yourself thin across several.
Don't doubt yourself. That is the only thing that can truly stop you, and it tends to stop people right before they break through....
Another member just posted about how his daughter, as 10 years old, has created a site because she thought it would be fun. She has already made her first sale.
You can do this!
Wow. Thanks, I needed that. I never thought about it that way.
Stay positive and keep working at it and in time we will be reading all about your successes.
