I don’t think it matters if you want to start a blog for personal reasons or as a possible online money making venture, if you want to gain a decent sized and loyal readership following you’ve got to focus in on a specific topic.
The problem is when you start looking at topics (or niches) to start a blog about it can seem like there’s already too much competition out there for you to compete with.
Personally, I view blogs a little differently from normal niche marketing web sites, so I don’t see other blogs as competition but rather proof (if they’re popular) that the topic is an interesting one to discuss–and a new blog will just be an addition to the discussions.
Still, I understand the hesitation or intimidations of trying to step in where one or more A-lister blogs may already exist.
So, what’s a guy (or gal) to do?
