It's best to start your search for a niche market, a narrow segment of a larger market, from your interest, know-how, and your passions. The reason is simply that you will work on an area where you have an interest. Your passion will drive you to success. So what do you like to do?

  1. Hobbies are great for niches. What do you do in your spare time?
  2. Do you like sports or other outdoor activities?
  3. Some of our members like gaming. How about you?
  4. Are you interested in certain social issues like preservation of the human race, education of children, etc.
  5. Do you like to travel? Do you like taking cruises or are you more likely to find your own way.
  6. Do you or a member of your family or someone you know have a health issue?
  7. Are you a fisherman that likes to make his own lures? I have a friend that makes beautiful pens with a wood body, and ex-FBI agent. Are you artistic or good with your hands.
I could go on here but you get the idea, don't you. Once you have a list of possible niche areas, you can get back to them later. Let's move on!

I haven't sent any emails. Maybe the system has for some reason. Rick said it may be because I was trying to fix the page order. Sorry about that. John

I should have mentioned Google Trends and Google Suggest as niche finding tools. There are many others. John

Fantastic: I believe you are saying that niches are to be found everywhere and anywhere, and I'm sure you're really just telling us that "you get around!"
