The Top Ten AdSense Paying Categories And Niches For Blogs
The original concept of Web Logs was exactly that an online personal
log, but it has expanded beyond all recognition and now there are
bloggers all over the world making a living from blogging alone.One of
the things all professional bloggers have in common is they write on a
topic (Called a Niche) that is popular and has a wide and preferably
worldwide appeal.
The leading way to make money from blogging is
by using Google AdSense, AdSense is the best option for new and
upcoming bloggers.When your blog has established a following and you
have displayed yourself as an expert in your niche you can look to make
money from you blog by selling direct advertising or maybe write and
sell an Ebook would be an option.
We previously covered How To Make More Money With AdSense
on your blog or website and their are some great AdSense tips and
tricks you can use to increase your earnings.But you must also choose
the niche you write in very carefully.
Why Some Clicks Pay More Than Others
Google crawl your blog, see what your writing about and target ads on that subject to the readers of your blog.
When
an AdSense ad appears on your blog the advertiser has bid for that ad
space and will then pay if the ad is clicked.How much you get paid if
the ad is clicked depends on how much the advertiser bid.
AdSense made simple
If
i want to buy ads on blogs that write about pink elephants there will
be no competition.The likelihood is I'm the only advertiser looking for
spots on that subject.I can bid the lowest possible amount which is a
few cent and have my ads displayed.If the ad is clicked i pay lets say
5 cent.
If i want to buy ads an sites that write about 'Quiting
Smoking' there will be lots of competition.I will have to pay a lot
more, advertisers in this niche sometimes have to pay a few dollars Per
Click.Unless I'm willing to pay a few dollars i will never get my ads
displayed.
There is a lot more into the process but you can see
were we are going with this, if you write in the niche that is
competitive for advertisers you will earn much more when your ads are
clicked.
The Best Niches
There
have been lots of studies into the best niches for making money from
your blog, i will provide you with ten niches in which you could
actually gain a share of the market.For example niches like
Agricultural and Industrial machinery or equipment are high paying but
gaining a piece of that market with a self wrote blog would be almost
imposable.
This list is based on a number of studies and
surveys, most results i have found would have up to 200 niches within a
topic like 'Health' so i will give a heading and the highest earning
'Sub Categories' were available.
1. Health - Anti-aging, Cancer, Dentistry and Orthodontics, Health and Medical Insurance.
2. Automotive - Car and auto insurance,
3. Computers - Computer Hardware, Computer Repair, PC and Internet Security
4. Banking and Finance - Credit and Finance, Debt consolidation, Loans and Mortgage
5. Internet - Dedicated Hosting, ISP and Networking, Online Degree, SEO software and tools, Web Development
6. Digital Photography
7. Psychotherapy
8. Real Estate
9. Consumer Electronics
10. Antiques and Collectibles
That's
ten of the top paying niches that you could realistically compete in as
a new blogger .
What now ?
What
you defiantly shouldn't do is start up lots of blogs in all the niches
above, your content will suffer and you are almost guaranteed to quit.
Is their a topic in the list that genuinely interests you ?
Pick one that interests you and work hard to build a blog that looks professional and has quality content.You will need help to promote and build your blog and get your blog started.It will take a few weeks before you see your work even starting to pay of, but you can do it !

Can you infrom the price per click of the niche?
Hi Forlan,
I actually have that information, I put together this post from 2 recent reports and followed up by using my own AdWords account to check what the current bids were in each niche or for the the main keywords used in each niche.
I wanted the list to be informative and i can guarantee it's accurate but i don't see the need to quote the CPC because then your moving from niche to 'Keyword' as i say in the post 'Health' can be broken into hundreds of niches. You can apply to adwords yourself and get an accurate cost per click rate, it's quiet a usefull tool.
Paul.
Thanks for the list.
