How to use classified ads to find a niche market for your blog

Filed Under (How to make money blogging, how to find a blog niche) by shaners on 10-05-2008

One of the least mentioned ways you can use to find a niche market for your blog is by using classifieds and the classified ads. What you’re looking for with this blog niche market are people who are looking to buy something cheap.

Which makes sense considering the fact that you’re going to want draw buyers, you know those people with money in their pocket that they want to use. Who will spend it on your blog and help you make money blogging.

You want buying traffic.

In a prior post I made about the 3 simple words for finding a niche market I mentioned that some of the words used to find niche market were about problems people are wanting to change in their lives.

I’d like to add to that and show you how to get buying traffic to your website.

Doing a keyword research today after being out in the malls doing some shopping lead me to this idea of finding things cheap.

We all want to find the best possible price for which ever item we are looking for , the internet is no different.

SO it is as simple as going to google and typing in for a starting point to get a broad idea of what is going to be found using this term “buy cheap” classifieds after you get through all the v1agra ads and what not you’ll find some interesting items that come up.

The basic idea here is to think like a buyer.

so for instance suppose you’re like me and are looking for a cheap camera. You know just surfing getting some ideas about what kind of cameras there out there, wouldnt it make sense that you’re going to type in to google cheap cameras. camera prices. low cost cameras.

so a quick glance at google shows this: 1 - 10 of about 357,000 for cheap cameras”

Which is pretty competitive. Not saying you shouldn’t go after a competitive market like that. But you would want to narrow down the niche for your blog. cheap camera could be a great top level keyword. And you should build upon a keyword like that. But probably not at the very beginning.

SO you might consider a longer tail keyword like: 1 - 10 of about 25,900 for cheap canon digital cameras”

I know what camera I am looking for and you can bet when people are going online that theyre looking for a specific brand.

Considering the fact that it is vacation time people might be looking into a disposable camera.

looking again at google: 1 - 10 of about 564 for cheap disposable cameras”

So there is some post content you could do about cheap disposable cameras for your niche blog.

Again keep in mind with this simple example that what you are looking for when finding a niche for your blog is what people are looking for CHEAP. Or looking to BUY CHEAP.

You could probably go longer tail with this phrase and use say something like this cheap used digital camera’s.

1 - 10 of about 1,340 for cheap used digital cameras”

I just typed in exactly what I want 1 - 3 of 3 for I want to buy a cheap camera

now what you could do is something like going tothese sites that are shown read their ads and or questions,if they’re on yahoo answers and then either reword them or post them directly to your blog.

The resources and research are endless when you get into to do this kind of niche market research for you blog.
