Blog topics/niches that will quickly attract a huge Nigerian audience



Blog topics/niches that will quickly attract a huge
Nigerian audience

Having stated all the above, let me now share with you some hot
blog topics/niches that will quickly attract a Nigerian audience. If
you start a blog on any of these topics, chances are, you'll start
making money within a short period (I didn't say a few weeks!).
Before I roll out my list, please remember that your choice of a niche
must be based on your personal interest as well as demand for the
information you want to share. Although the topics in this list would quickly attract a large audience
due to high demand for the related information, you won't have a
smooth sail if you don't have a natural interest in them or you
don't know much about them. Rather, in that case, I'd advise to
look elsewhere and brainstorm further for a topic that will meet the
two major criteria that I stated earlier.
Also, note that this list is restricted to topics that will quickly
attract a NIGERIAN audience. If your plan is to target a global
audience (probably because you can make more money that way),
then stay hooked to this blog. Very soon, I'll be publishing a list of
hot blog topics that will attract a global audience quickly.

Now, here's my list...

1. Small business and self-employment ideas
Because of the high rate of unemployment in Nigeria, there's a huge
demand for information on how to set up a small business and
become self-employed.
Whenever I browse through the business section of most Nigerian
online communities and forums, I see questions like "what business
can I start with N10,000?", "what business can I start with
N200,000?", "how can I set up my own small business", and so on.
These questions can give you brilliant blog post ideas.
Share tips on how to start a small business, how to market it, how to
manage your money, and so on. You'll quickly attract the attention
of many unemployed or underemployed Nigerians. That's free
information for them, and traffic for you. (More traffic = more
money.)

2. Tips on how to get a job
Even though there are few of such vacant office positions in Nigeria,
some never-say-die graduates would never give up on their search
for office jobs. You'll easily attract the attention of such people if you
share tips on how to get a job. Share tips on how to prepare for a job interview, how to answer interview questions, how to write a great job application, how to write a killer CV, and so on.

3. Android devices and tutorials42
Now, Android phones have taken over the Nigerian smartphone
market (thanks to Tecno and high end brands like Samsung and
Sony). You'd be amazed at the rate at which Nigerians are searching
the web for information about Android phones (Tecno, especially).
Share the latest news about the Android platform, the latest Android
devices in market, the rating and prices of Android devices, reviews
of Android apps as well tutorials and tricks on how to do various
things with an Android device. This topic will be great for you if

4. Best deals and promo offers
Everyone loves to buy things for cheap -- and we Nigerians aren't an
exception. You'll attract a huge audience if you start a blog that
breaks news about discount offers, promos, and price comparisons.
Although, you'll spend lots of time on research, you'll be amazed at
how people will engage with your blog and at how advertisers will
be queuing to buy ad space on your blog.

5. Entertainment news and celebrity gist
Personally, I dislike this niche because I think it has already been
beaten into pulp by Nigerian bloggers. But the truth is, you'll always
get an audience if you start a blog on the topic. But you'll need to
post fresh news on a frequent basis in order to attract and retain a

6. Make money online
Well, that's exactly what this very blog is all about. Many Nigerians –
employed or not – want to increase their monthly income by
venturing into online business. So, anyone who shares relevant and valuable information in this regard will attract a large audience
within a very short time. Share the various ways by which people can make money online, how they can start their online businesses, how they can monetize their websites and blogs, how they can make money even without owning a website or blog, and how they can make money online using only their smartphones, among many other topics.

Due to Nigeria's unstable economy, Nigerians are always looking for
ways to prepare for bad times. Today, many salary earners are on
the lookout for promising investment opportunities that will boost
their income. So, if you create a blog about business and investment
opportunities, you'll attract a huge audience – of people who really
have money (if that would be anything to go by).
Break news about latest public share offers, property for sale at
cheap prices, and other investment opportunities.

8. How to travel abroad
For obvious reasons (don't ask me to explain), many Nigerians are
desperately seeking to travel abroad for a better quality of living,
among other motives. You'll quickly attract hundreds to thousands
of these "desperadoes" if you share on your blog information that
will be of help to them. Share tips on how to secure overseas scholarships, how to secure a visa, how to choose the right overseas destinations, and so on.

9. Admissions and scholarships 44
Presently, there are millions of Nigerian youths seeking admission
into the nation's tertiary institutions. These people are ready to
implement any helpful tips they find on any blog. So, if you share
information that will interest them, you'll get a huge audience.
You'll also attract undergraduates by sharing information about the
latest scholarship schemes Break the news about post UTME guidelines as published by various institutions, share tips on how to pass the UTME, share tips on how to pass the post UTME, break the news about scholarship schemes...
Monetization tip: package the post-UTME past questions and
answers for various institutions into PDF format and sell them to
your audience. You'll make money!

10. Free software codes and cracks
Nigerians love getting things through the easiest means possible.
You'll quickly build a high traffic blog if you share software cracks
and codes, free browsing APNs, links to free ebooks and software,
tutorials and tricks, etc. However, I'd advice you not to blog on this topic – for two reasons:
· Google hates blogs and websites that disclose vital information
illegally. So, your blog will most likely be denied approval for
Adsense.
· Advertisers don't like to be associated with sites that ravish
others' privacies. So, you won't make money from selling ad
space, even if you have a massive audience.

But there’s more money in targeting a global audience
Yes, you’re likely to make more money from your blog in the long
term if you target a global audience rather than staying local. And
there are reasons for this.
Firstly, most Nigerian internet users don’t engage with ads. So, you
may not really get much Adsense clicks as to fetch you good money.
Secondly, most Nigerian internet users browse the web with their
mobile devices. And since Adsense ads display poorly on mobile
browsers, you won’t attract much clicks.
Thirdly, because buying products online is still very new in Nigeria,
you won’t be able to make money from affiliate marketing, which is
a real money spinner and the biggest source of income for many
bloggers.
Fourthly, Nigerians are very reluctant to part with their money.
Though you can have all their loyalty as long as you offer free
information, most of them won’t buy your product when you pitch
them – even if you try hard to convince them of its benefits.

So, I, personally, prefer to target a global audience unless I’m very
sure of a huge Nigerian audience, and I’m ready to overlook those
monetization methods that won’t work on a blog targeted at
Nigerians.

Which niches should you choose for a global audience?
Well, the truth is, any niche or topic can fetch you good money from
an international audience if you play your cards right.

But the following niches are particularly lucrative:
· Health
· Small business
· Technology
· Green living
· Personal finance
· Pet care

PS. Niches like health and technology comprise several sub-topics. A
proven success tip is to choose one sub-topic (skin health, mental
health, health tips for the pregnant, kids health, etc. – under the
health niche) and focus on it. Specificity rocks! If you choose a niche
that is too generic, you’re more likely to fail.

So, what’s next?
After choosing a suitable niche, there's another step you MUST take
if you really hope to build a high traffic blog. And that's KEYWORD
RESEARCH. It's a vital part of any successful online business,

and it could make or mar your blog. You’ll learn more about it later on.
