What is Niche
For Your understanding in a simple sentence we called it as “category” in which your blog is all about and its really necessary to define it first without having a perfect niche that suits you if not you won’t be able to write content that why you need to first define your niche but really its hard to define niche

- Tech
- Food
- Music
- Travel
- Fitness

Choosing Niche is not that hard as you think and I don’t recommend to randomly choose any niche and write content where you don’t know about anything about that niche so what are ways you can ascertain your niche
Follow This You definitely get your Niche
Obtain You’re Interest
Its hard to write to something which you have no knowledge and one of this is matter is your Interest if you not have Interest on a particular niche you won’t be able to produce aswome content if your Interest is about Food you can go for Food niche, if have interest on tech go for tech niche
Can Solve issues
It’s all about solving problems of others if your content can solve other problems then your audience will find your content but if
You’re Passion
Why Passion
The more you passionate about something the better you can focus and it also help you to produce the great content if you are not passionate enough your Interest will slowly getting fade away and you find hard to concentrate so that’s why you need to be passionate

Don’t Jump in blogging only for Money : i Know money is needed for getting sustain our self but in you need side the money first and focus on your work rather thinking about money it doesn’t mean avoid money but you can take it as secondary the first priority of yours is to produce content for users
Most of the people jump in blogging influence with the earnings of others Where’s main motive is motivate you about blogging which most of take it as wrong direction the reality of making money is not easy as you think most of the blogs even not earn their first doller
The reason why i am telling this most of the bloggers earnings not started at one night it takes couple of month even a year get their first paycheck so you can think that if you only thinking about the money which is not going help you at long term
Focus on Your Audience : You Know i done this in my early age of blogging i don’t focus on my audience but the retaliation of it i understand at every long time if you are not focusing on your audience they may be not return back unless they find the stuff they looking they will
The better you understand your audience the better you can figure out content they care about the most and producing quality content for them and get rewarded don’t write unrelated content that not fits for your audience
Relay only on SEO : Relying on only on SEO is not good you need to explore the other source of traffic to which going to help in your long run as you need to focus on your brand building and if only depended upon the SEO is not good for you
To Personal : the reality you can’t ignore that users don’t want to know about your personal things rather than solving their issue’s so don’t be to personal which good for you and your audience to
Lack of consistency : if you not being consistent enough to post content at your schedule soon the interest fade away and this happens with the beginners at the time they started blogging they post a content and they started to think about traffic only but not producing content consistently
What constancy means for you is i doesn’t mean you require to post regularly content but a schedule to maintain it may be three post a week or one post a week at least maintain your schedule
if you stop posting content your audience may forget you that you are exit and it hard to get back to the position
