How to find AdSense Niche Topics

Good AdSense niche topics are like goldmines. They are often poorly covered areas of interest that has little to no competition from other publishers. They often have good levels of demand (interested visitors) and a good number of high paying related ads. Basically a good AdSense niche is one that has:

High Cost Per Click

High Traffic

Low Competition

Of course no niche topic is ideal, only rarely, do all the above factors coincide to create an AdSense niche topic. There are other more realistic combinations of factors that can make good AdSense niches for example:

Low Cost Per Click

High Traffic

Low Competition

Basically, the common factor in all possible combinations is low competition. This ensures that you control a large portion of the traffic affiliated with the topic in question.

There are a number of different ways to discover AdSense niche topics. Some people prefer to tackle it from the profit angle, focusing on finding AdSense niche topics within high paying AdSense keywords. But this technique is fraught with difficulties, not least the problem of trying to create an AdSense website on a topic you’re probably not familiar with.

A good AdSense niche topic has to be of interest to you. How can it be a ‘good’ topic if you can’t turn it into a success? The best way to find a good AdSense topic is to discover one, so at least you know it’s one that is ‘good’ for you.

To make success of an AdSense website you have to be passionate about the subject matter. So the first step towards finding one that is ideal for you, is to brainstorm and write down all the topics that interest you. In this step don’t hold back, you have to try and put down everything, no matter how silly. Write down the things that you do everyday that interests you, that could also interest someone else. Things that you like reading about, hobbies, things you do at home and possibly things you do at work. Try and write down a list of least twenty different topics.

From this list review each topic and ask yourself a number of important questions;

1. How passionate am I about this topic?
2. Would other people be interested in this topic?
3. Would this topic work well as a website or a blog?
4. Has this topic got longevity?
5. What would I need to make this topic interesting to a prospective visitor to my site and can I deliver what is required?
6. But most importantly, what topic do I have the most understanding of and the greatest interest in?

Passion, understanding and interest in the topic helps make the work flow easier for you. Building the website becomes less of a burden if you have a deep interest in the subject matter.

From the list try and whittle down your options to only 5 topics. This list is now probably comprised mostly of general website themes which are not yet specific AdSense topics. To convert these themes into possible AdSense niche topics, you need to do some basic keyword research. For this you are going to need a keyword discovery tool. One of the best is the one provided by Google in its Adwords section. It is free to use but requires constant entry of CAPTCHA text to use if you haven’t signed up for Google Adwords.

When through to the tool enter your topic into the entry field and click on ‘get keyword ideas.’ A list of related terms is then generated which could be possible AdSense niches. But some could be fined tuned further. Put any remaining terms that seems too broad back through the keyword tool for more related suggestions. Try and put together a list of ten, two or three word niche topics created from your original five keywords. This process can be quite exhaustive (but imagine the trials and tribulations required to find a goldmine) but it is necessary.

Now you have a number of possible AdSense niche topics. But they still need to be investigated further. You need facts and figures to make these possible AdSense goldmines more real. Further research into the competition (supply) and demand for the topics is necessary.

But this essential first stage has enabled you to find possible AdSense niches that could be AdSense goldmines for YOU. To make a success of AdSense you need to plan first before you can move forward. And finding the perfect niche for you is one of the many first steps you need to make before putting together your first AdSense website.
