Conclusions

I hope this list provides a good set of examples for you to draw on. Again, while you’re free to use any of these site ideas as you wish, the real point of this article is to see multiple examples of how to narrow an industry down to a subject area, and then types of niche ideas that might result from a given subject area.

I also hope you realize just how specific a given niche can be and that just about anything can become a successful niche. There is always room to expand a site later, or to adapt a 2nd related niche to your original topic, so don’t worry about choosing a topic that might appear to small. The bigger mistake is choosing a topic that is too large. For more information, read my article on how to choose an affiliate niche.
