Then there are those who say to choose a niche that can make a lot of money. A bit confusing right?
My advice is to have a balance. Pick a niche that you enjoy, that has a ton of questions and problems that you can answer and solve. A blog topic that is related to a group of people that you want to help. And that has the potential to make money.
Focus on providing value to your audience by solving their problems.

3. Food
As most of these niches, the food blogging niche is very competitive. But there is always a way around that.
By targeting low competition keywords that you have a good chance of ranking for.
Most big bloggers will usually always rank for the high competitive keyword.
Your job is a little bit harder. You have to find low competition keywords (long-tail keywords) that you will be able to rank for.
That is going to take some research. Luckily there are keyword research tools to use. Like ubersuggest and buzzsumo, just to name a few.
Find the hidden gems that you will be able to rank for and you’ll be golden.
It may take some time but once you find them, you will start getting a good amount of traffic. And as a result, your income will grow as well.
4. Travel
The travel niche is also very competitive. But when you find a way to produce content that can rank, you will still get enough traffic and generate an income.
The trick here is to not try and rank for keywords that you know you won’t be able to rank for. Find long-tail keywords that are not very popular, but still interesting to draw an audience and get lots of eyeballs to your blog.
Niching down also gives you a specific target market and audience to attract. Chances are more likely that there is a certain demographic for your topic.

All you have to focus on is creating good, quality content and learning SEO to rank your blog. That will do all the work for you and you can carry on with your job as a busy mom.
You only have to create content and monetize your blog.
You don’t even need to be a personal finance expert to write content for your new blog.
