18. Food Blog

 After a popular pastor warned men not to marry ladies who cannot cook, the number of ‘how to cook xyz soup’ searches has spiked in the last few months. A food blog is always evergreen because there are endless recipes and ways to do stuff in the kitchen. You will need to be passionate about cooking. You will also need to be inventive and willing to try new things. You then share what you tried and the result with your readers. You will be saving a lot of marriages and helping form new ones.

Sub Niches: Recipes (How To), kitchen utensils and equipment, Product and restaurant reviews, local dishes, continental dishes, drink recipes, food crafts, food art, teas, natural food, food preparation, cook books, pastry making, snacks, desserts, etc

17. Review Blog

A review blog is just what it is. You help people make a decision about what they need to buy by telling them what your experience has been using the same product. You can review anything under the sun: products, companies, cosmetics, restaurants, hotels, movies, websites, etc.

Sub Niches: Anything you choose to review is a sub-niche. Movie review is a sub-niche. So is restaurants, destinations, books, hair products, etc. Simply focus on the area you are most passionate about. You will need to be very honest in your reviews else you will lose trust. If you lose trust, you lose traffic and that would be the end of your blog.

Here’s a tip: if you are getting paid to review a particular product, make sure your readers know but also tell them getting paid does not in any way affect your judgment of the product under review (and stay true to it).
