5 HOT Niche Markets To Start Your Blog In 2023 (+ Earnings Reports)
These are still profitable & hungry niches to start your blog (+5 additional bonus options).
You want to have your blog. What’s the next important step?
You must select a topic that you are going to write about. It is extremely useful if you already have an interest in certain subjects.
Remember, you do not need to “know it all” to start your WordPress blog. It is sufficient that you have an interest in the subject and want to keep learning.
Let me tell you a true story…
Enemies imprisoned a soldier in a war. This soldier had a pocket English dictionary with him. As the guards showed interest in learning a few new words, the imprisoned soldier would teach the guards three new words daily. The guards were postponing the execution of the soldier because he taught them a new skill.
Day after day, this lasted until liberation, and the soldier survived the war (unlike many of his comrades)… Only to confess later that he would learn those three new words the same day and only a few hours before his students (guards). (The soldier was also a total beginner.)
So, in this step, you choose your blog niche (market). (Niche is a category that you want to specialize in.)
Do not spend that much time thinking because too much choice leads to “paralysis from analysis.”
Once you choose, stick to it. Here is the list of the most profitable niche markets in 2023.
HINT: Pick a narrowly focused niche rather than a general one. For instance, “food for diabetics” would be a solid niche. However, the “paleo diet for diabetics” niche is better. “Paleo diet for pregnant women” is the best.
While moving from a too-general subject to narrowly focused (sub-niche) topics, you also avoid the competition (have more of the market to yourself).
Niche #1: Food
In the last 20 years, we have become much more aware of what we eat. Simply speaking, what you eat is what you are. This gave rise to a multi-billion online empire around food. And it is not going to stop there…
Do you follow a certain diet (keto, paleo)? Maybe you know about the proper diet for diabetics, for instance (from someone in your family).
Or for losing/gaining weight. If you know more about this than an average person (and if you are interested in the subject), the earning possibilities in this niche are enormous.
If you are an athlete with attractive muscles, you can also write about recipes/habits that people can follow to look exactly like you.
Possibilities are extraordinary (again, pick one and stick to it).
There are recipe blogs out there that make more than $100,000 a month. Example is https://pinchofyum.com
Why not take a slice of that cake?
Niche #2: Making & Saving Money
I bet there is a guru in your neighborhood teaching others how to make money…
Joking a bit. Still, this is a vast market. Even though it has become a bit overcrowded with gurus for this and that, there is always room for quality content.
Have you had a significant financial success? Fliped a second-hand car and earned a few hundred dollars? Renovated an apartment and sold it for double the amount? Found a new way how to make money online?
You can write about that and let people follow your advice. Money & wealth is one of the biggest motivators out there.
Show people precisely what to do to make money, and you will have a bunch of readers.
It is equally relevant if you know how to save money (hacks, tips & tricks). Show them any of these, and the sky is the limit.
For example, https://www.makingsenseofcents.com reports $100k a month…
Niche #3: Lifestyle
You are different than anyone else. Are you enjoying sharing what you do every day?
Do you find it attractive that others approve and comment on your daily habits?
Instagram is full of influencers (and some are making a lot of money).
Why not turn this into a WordPress blog about your lifestyle that others can copy and benefit from?
The main problem with Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook is that your followers are not really yours… You do not have their contact — Instagram has.
Once Instagram changes its policy, it might just ban your account, and you lose everything in the blink of an eye. Years of work went down the drain… Nowadays, big social networks ban accounts for nothing…
With a blog, you are fully protected.
Your audience and readers are yours forever, and nothing is lost. You get full control.
Blogs such as https://www.cosmopolitan.com report $650,000 a year.
Niche #4: Pets
People are becoming more and more lonely. That’s a fact.
Pets are there because we feel more “loved” or combat the fear of “being alone” easier.
Psychology aside, people are spending big time on their pets. Simply speaking, pets provide unconditional love (that we are all after).
Be it a cat, a dog, or a frog (yes, there are extreme pet categories).
If you have a pet yourself, you already know many things that, for instance, I do not know (since I do not own a dog). So, that is one potential reader…
Remember the soldier story? You only need to know a bit more than the average person to prosper in this business (and make money).
Why not start a blog about American Staford + Australian Bulldog blend (or a similar breed you own)?
How about a blog about “Siberian Husky hair care” only? Pick the right sub-niche, and you have the market to yourself.
Pet-based blogs are earning more than ever. Notice https://youdidwhatwithyourweiner.com reports $7,500 a month.
Niche #5: Parentship
Even though kids can be a crucial factor in many people’s lives, kids still cause a lot of trouble.
For instance, new parents have no idea about milk temperature or how often to bathe their newborn boy.
In the teenage years, parents get discipline problems with their kids.
The possibilities are enormous. Parents would give everything for the well-being of their kids.
This only means one — the market is hungry (and you are invited to tell what you know about the topic).
Do you know of a method that can effectively discipline a teenage girl? Or perhaps how to teach kids to read under the age of 5?
Some blogs like https://twinsmommy.com make $30,000 a month.
