Why to jump out of your niche
By acca | December 14, 2007
From time to time, when you write a blog you have to jump out a little from your niche. We all saw that on many successful weblogs on the internet. Why you have to do that sometimes? What good can that bring to our blogs?
All blogs have to be updated with new posts regularly. Some bloggers publish new posts once a week, some once a days. But you have to follow your tempo. Sometimes you just have no idea what to write about in your small niche. And than, you can either write some stupid bad post or, wait few days more for some nice idea. But you can make that jump I mention. For instance, if you are writing about TV movies, you can write some post about some actress or even TV series. Or, you blog about new cellphone models. If there is no new model for several days, you can write a post about some ancient cellphone. First Nokia model for instance.
Your readers can fall asleep if posts are always about same little niche without jumping out from it sometimes. Reading about something similar, something from bigger niche, but yet, related to your regular posts can be refreshing for visitors.
Following really small niche can be good for search engine positioning for that particular key phrase. But what about people who search for something similar? If you have blog about red cars and don’t mention yellow cars nider once, you will not get readers who searched for yellow cars on Yahoo. Write one post about yellow cars and you can send invitation to bigger audience that way. Some of that people can find your blog interesting, too.
