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
you're
tech-savvy. click and register to make money online @ http://signup.clicksor.com/advertise_here.php?nid=1&srid=&ref=341737
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
large
audience.http://samolad.bestgalleries.me/4223312-7726398
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.
7. Business and investment opportunitiesClick this image to be awesome http://samolad.bestgalleries.me/4188782-1642
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.
