I have been trying to find my ideal four four months. A huge four months!!!. I can't just determine a niche is worth promoting or I can compete as a newbie. This is vey very frustrating and I think I will go insane. Here are the niches I am interested in:
Hair loss
Acne treatment
Social anxiety disorder
Anxiety and panic attacks
insomnia
self esteem&self confidence
Weight loss
Can you evaluate these niches for me? Which is the proper one for a newbie?
Thank you

    FOUR months? What have you used to evaluate your niches?

    Perfection means no results, so if you want to try something go for it, evaluate after 30 days and tweak as necessary.

      There's the problem! You'll learn far more by doing rather than reading. You'll make some mistakes but can adjust course as you go along.

      I don't mean to be negative, but you're probably going to fail at your first online venture anyway no matter how thoroughly you've done your research, so might as well just pick something and start getting your feet wet! Well, get them soaked

    You already have selected niches that solve a problem.

    Those are very profitable but you have to take into consideration that your competition will be a lot bigger as well.

    Charlotte is super correct here, I think you should just pick one and work on only one for at least 30-45 days, if you can, do split testing and if you don't see any kind of success, then jump to another niche.

    Although I wouldn't discard a niche after just 30 to 45 days, it all depends on what your strategy is going to be and if you're willing to invest or drive traffic for free.

    I am with Charlotte... Pick one and run...

    You obviously know more about those niches than I do...

    But I would pick one that seems that it would have a real market, less competition and something that is easy to support...

    I would pick hair loss, acne treatment or insomnia, IF this list includes my only choices...

      Why would you pick them? Do you think they are less competitive niches or more profitable

    A lot of people here too often use the term "analysis paralysis" but I think that's an accurate explanation here!

    You are thinking too much. At this rate, you will never get anything done. It sounds like you are just afraid to fail and want everything to be perfect and lined up for sure success before you even start. That's not going to happen.

    You need to not be afraid to fail or make mistakes as you will along the way. You need to start testing and doing and really just trying it out for yourself.

    Seriously, you need to take a huge look at what's stopping you from actually doing something instead of just thinking about it.

    If you don't sort it out and just go for it, you will have wasted months and even next year at this time, you will be in the same position.

    It's time for a complete change of mindset. You have some awesome free information here, so just use what you know and go for it. Quit over-thinking it.

    I would say, pick one that you really love to work on. You can't go wrong with it. There would always be a market for a good stuff. As long as you can make create a good product out of these, then your intuition alone will guide you.

    I agree with Charlotte as well. You have 7 niches, which will have countless sub-niches. The point is you have to start somewhere. If anyone of them stand out, go for that one first.

    Those are all good topics, four months isn't actually that long to start feeling your way around.

    Which topic should use choose? I would go with which ever one you already have the most knowledge about.

    Start with creating a blog on the topic and start writing content. If you add content consistently not only will you get some traffic but you will get a better understanding of the topic.

    Once you have a good understanding of the topic, create an auto responder message series.

    If you choose insomnia write a mini course on 10 Tips to a better nights sleep or something along those lines. Each autoresponder email will have a tip in it.

    You can sell a click bank product to monetise, there is actually a pretty good one for insomnia, Whose name eludes me, so you will have to check. In your autoresponder series write a couple of soft sells and one hard sell for the click bank product.

    Later on once you have a really good understanding of your market and the niche you can create your own information product, get your own affiliates etc.

    But take your time, it will be a long process
