I think most of you have heard of niches. You know that a niche, an area of interest in other words, is something that we must ‘target’ in order to make money. And it’s true.

Just think of how much money is made buying and selling collectable comics that have a face value of a few cents. That’s pretty niche, but it’s still big business. Conventions exist to cater for the demand and a whole chunk of cash changes hands just in that one tiny area.

Think of eBay – that started out, so the story goes, as a way for the founder’s girlfriend to swap Pez sweet dispensers!

Well niche blogs are really just the same idea, but in the blogging world. It relates to blogs which have a fixed area of focus. It could be in the health area, or in an even narrower niche like high blood pressure. These are just examples, the actual niches can be anything. If a few people are interested in it, then yes, it’s a niche. So ‘learn to speak Klingon’ is definitely a niche (and bigger than you may think).

So just go out and set up a niche blog and you’ll be able to start attracting visitors to that blog. Easy, right? Well, not if you’re like most people (me included) and you just don’t like the time and effort it takes to produce the content. Hey, the internet is supposed to be about easy money, right? Hard work is supposed to be a thing of the past.

What if you really could start a niche blog the easy way? With quality content delivered for you. That would be quite a nice way to build up a blog real estate empire. There are people out there selling such blogs already. All you have to do is pay your money, rewrite the content and then… wait, do what? Rewrite the content yourself? More work.

Ok, so here’s the point of the post. I’ve just launched my niche blog building service. It builds niche blogs, so far so same as everyone else. What my service does that’s special is give each member their own version of the content. You’re not going to get exactly the same content as 500 other people. The full details are at the sales page at instantblogwizard.com

I’ve sent an offer to all my subscribers – a total of 7 of them will get it completely free. The first 5 who comment here and tell me how much the opening offer saving is get it for nothing (well I want you to at least take a look at the sales page!). I’m then keeping 2 copies back for later commenters, so that anyone in a different timezone still has a fair chance. I will decide which 2 commenters get the free copies.

UPDATE: As at 16:30 GMT 12th March the 5 free copies have been allocated. There are 2 more copies available and if there are more qualifying comments than that I’ll pick the 2 commenters who I think should have the free copies. I’ll leave the comments open for a while to give people chance to make their comment and get a free copy of the system.

UPDATE: As at 22:11 GMT 9th March the first 3 free copies have already been allocated.

Please note, if you’re not already on my subscriber list when you make the comment you will not qualify for a free copy – so sign up now if you haven’t already done so. You can do that over on the right of the page.

I wasn’t sure whether to write this post. I don’t normally like to talk too much about my personal life – it’s private. But I’m reminded that people connect to people. And one of the fastest ways of doing that is by being honest.

For the last couple of months I’ve been pretty much out of the loop in marketing. I had an international house move in December which certainly takes up a big chunk of time. Been ill too. Then I followed it by feeling depressed. I don’t know if I had actual depression, but I’ve never felt so blue in my life before – ever.

Winter can be a miserable time for a lot of us, especially in colder climates. For me it has come at the same time as moving countries. I didn’t really want to do that, but for the sake of my family (mainly my kids’ education) I’ve done it. We’ve moved back to a cold – very, very cold – climate from a warm one in Spain. And we’ve moved back to the hustle and bustle and road rage that we’d previously left behind. The shock of the cultural differences has reminded me how much I loved the Spanish lifestyle. It suited me.

This picture shows you the view I used to have:

I now have a view out onto a busy main road. It’s not as attractive!

But when I see how happy my family is I’m glad we made the move back. It came at a cost to me though. I’ve left behind friends, a climate and location that I loved and a lifestyle that fit me like a glove. To be honest, I wasn’t prepared for how low I’d feel with this move.

Luckily for me I’m not really someone who ever gets down – I can’t remember ever feeling like this before in my whole life. And I’m getting used to all the differences now, so that initial depression has lifted and I’m getting back into the swing of things. My usual cheery self has returned, just about.

It does mean that an upcoming project has been delayed, by about 6 weeks or so. I’m creating a new product – a service that builds niche blogs for you, automatically. It should be ready, live and available in about a week, hopefully. There are a number of unique features that will prove invaluable, I hope. But more of that nearer the launch time.

To anyone affected by delays in my doing things I’d like to apologize. Sometimes life gets in the way of the best of plans. And it reminds us to enjoy the day, while we still can, because tomorrow might bring changes.

To those of you who are thinking about breaking into internet marketing for the first time, I would say jump in. Learn as you go. There’s never a better time than today to get started. You almost certainly won’t make $100,000 in your first month – or even your first year. But you’ll never make a penny until you’ve taken your first steps.

Why not take your first steps today – I’ll even help you out by providing software to get you started.

To anyone who leaves a genuine, engaging comment to this post I’ll offer you a free copy of my e-store shopping cart, SublimeSalesPro – yes, it’s a bribe to encourage more comments. And just so we’re clear, ‘interesting post’ as a comment does not qualify for a free copy! If you can’t genuinely contribute to the discussion, don’t. Buy the software instead.

I know from my site statistics that quite a few people read this blog, but very, very few leave any comments so I’m willing to bribe you to interact. If it works, I’ll probably offer more such goodies in the future – good stuff. If it doesn’t work out then I won’t offer such freebies.

Oh and by the way, if I get more than 10 genuine comments I’ll pick my favorite one and put together a package of resell rights material for setting up an online store using SublimeSalesPro – I’ll also do the script install, if required. And just to encourage people to comment sooner rather than later, if I get 30 comments I’ll close the offer. If you want a copy of the script, comment early!
