Is a Niche really that Important if using this Strategy?

You could very well do this. But if you narrow the Niche from the git go with really proven sub Niches ( by in depth research) why waste this valuable TIme and Work of doing this Testing ??

There are more economical ways to get around this by doing proper KY research and using the ole search button in here and Google to get clear ideas of what sub niches to pursue

Sounds like you're reinventing a site like HubPages or Squidoo. These sites used to be good for testing out different niches, but they don't rank that well anymore.

If I was starting out today I'd develop a following on someone else's forum, use that to launch my youtube channel, and then build a niche site.

I think a better way to restrict your niche is do the same thing , but on YOUTUBE!!
After taht build your blog in the better arguments!

I think your strategy is the right one. Of course you would rather not waste time on sub-niches that don't work but I contend that you can do all the research and study you want and you still can't accurately predict which sub-niches will be the most successful. In my own experience, the niches that I was sure would be successful were not, and the ones that I had serious doubts about turned out to be successful.

IMO, you'll be wasting time and effort and you'll be more confused down the road than you need to be.

Here's the problem with starting out "broad." Sound Internet marketing begins with addressing demand in the marketplace. You want to find problems, desires, and "gaps" that aren't being addressed properly. You are not going to create demand for your product - it is either in the marketplace already . . . or it's not.

You are looking for a group of people (an audience) that has a common demand so that you can address it and sell them a solution.

When folks go online they don't search for broad topics. Folks don't search for terms like health, exercise, or weight loss. They are after specific things that will help them with their specific problems. These people won't be interested in broad and general blogs because they only have an interest in their own situation.

If you were looking for some new shoes . . . would you search for "shoes?" Nobody does that. You search for a specific brand, model, color and size.

There is another reason why going broad is difficult. You will be going up against the largest sites on the Internet that are already established household brands. But when you go very specific, you cut the competition down immensely. And that's a good thing.

Here's another reason to stay away from "broad": if you cast a very wide net, a lot of the fish in your pool will not be interested in what you offer. When you try to appeal to everyone, you end up appealing to no one.

It's better to have a very homogeneous (like-minded) audience, everyone looking for the same kind of solutions or desires. Then when you make an offer to them, everyone is your targeted prospect. Everyone should be interested in what you have to say because you're speaking directly to that person's concern.

Of course, you will end up doing what you want . . . but I would suggest you niche down as deep as you can to begin with. You can always add another income stream in a different niche later.

Remember, it all begins with finding demand. If you do that, you will be in a potentially rewarding niche on your first try!

To Be Honest with you my Opinion is niche isn't at all important cuz there are loads of loads websites out there who have different kind of products with totally different kind of niches. in one website yes in one particular specific website!

No. Just follow the simple basics of making money online. Don't try to do anything different or "change the game". If you want to make money as fast as possible... follow the conventions of direct response marketing online. Then throw a lot of paid advertising at it. Your life... do as you please, but don't get mad if you abandon the project after unnecessary thousands of dollars have been wasted.

I agree with a few of the comments on here.

My question is why would you create ONE blog on three closely realted niches?

Why not THREE blogs on each niche you have suggested you are interested in?

More blogs, more blog posts, more chances for Google to rank you on al THREE keywords.

All the best :O)

One of my websites focuses on a VERY broad niche. The important
thing here is to add content daily, and after some time - seeing what
works better, which posts receive the most visitors etc. Then, improve
everything and repeat.

authority websites can be very profitable - I personally don't make narrow
niche websites - I think the risk here is bigger - unless you are very experienced
and can really find the BEST micro-niches to follow.

Promote what people need.

There are many thousands of people who need website hosting and an autoresponder. Not just IMers.

Promote a necessary "tool" with recurring payments.

It's so much easier making sales to people who are actively seeking your product then trying to convince someone they need what you are offering. Also when people become invested (Have a website up or start building a list) they are much more likely to pay their subscription each month.

It's probably the most important before you start setup your business model.
