Demand. You must also take into consideration how much demand there is for whatever you are planning to offer. Are there enough potential customers to make you a sustainable income? Your niche has to be narrow – but wide enough – that there is enough demand, but not so broad that the competition will be able to get in too easily and make life too hard for you.
How To Find Your NicheYou will have to do some niche Market Research, and Google can be a helpful niche finder. Google can give you an estimate of demand and competition for the web business idea you have in mind thru AdWords
Google will bring you back a lot of related keywords with average Search Volume (how many times that word or phrase is searched) per month for each keyword. This will give you a good indication of the demand for the product you are offering (and maybe also a few online business niche ideas you didn’t think of).
Tip 1: Try different keywords related to your business idea (try some in the search result) to see if Google brings you some more good niche marketing ideas.
Tip 2: The external Google keyword tool gives you up to 100 keywords for any given ‘parent’ keyword.
