She keeps saying choose a niche and stick to it and I keep saying I want a blog that delivers multiple things for multiple needs. By all means have a marketing angle or theme, but keep it wide and deep. Great stuff! This is exactly the argument I had with a potential site designer.

I like how you mentioned, "Why be the big fish in the pond, when you could be a killer whale in the ocean? By having a small niche your limiting your growth which is crazy.. Why would you only want contact a small number of people, you may as well put blocks on your site that restricts everyone outside your city!" This is so true. Be someone who lets everyone come in and welcomes all. Don't just target one thing and cause everyone else to feel as if they're not wanted. There's always a way to go about it and you're doing it daily! Nice post! :) .-= Eric´s last blog ..<a href="http://bluepop13.com/2010/01/25/lets-help-each-other/" rel="nofollow">Lets Help Each Other</a> =-. James this is pretty good.

Sure, the content matters and there are //tons// of sites out there with similar content, no matter what niche we're talking about. But the wonderful thing about blogging is that the writer matters just as much as content. Market yourself and have a unique voice and vantage point, and you're set. It took me a while to realize that, but it's true. I'm my own best selling point--a geek professor who loves pop culture. Very rare to find that perspective. So I try to exploit that. .-= Professor Beej´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ProfessorBeej/~3/f3iDzNXVMUM/john-scalzi-kick-in-the-butt.html" rel="nofollow">Writing my Novel: John Scalzi Just Gave Me a Swift Kick in the Butt</a> =-.

The rest comes down to how well you market it. If those topics are all in demand and your writing style is good, you’re half way there. The rest comes down to how well you market it.
