How to Find Micro Niche Keywords? [4 Brilliant Ways]

The key to succeeding quickly with content blogging is determining a niche that does not have a barrier to entry.

Don’t get me wrong, I know that you can start blogging on any niche that you want, hands down.

It’s a matter of determining whether it’s worth entering that niche or is too competitive to enter that niche.

For example, in 2020 very few people would dare enter the medical or health niche. I mean the health niche is very profitable.

But, E-A-T and updates by Google killed this niche for people who aren’t doctors but were giving advice as if they were doctors.

You wouldn’t wanna enter a niche that is either too competitive to enter or that is restrictive to enter. Because we do blogging to make money (some do it for hobby until they realize that they can make money out of it)

Traffic = Money

#1 source of Traffic Google

You can tap that source via SEO (search engine optimization)

That is people are now chasing a micro niche. Let’s break it down chronologically for better understanding.
