My 7-step blueprint to create a $10,000 per month niche blog:
1) The Niche Dilemma
Your first step is to choose a niche for your blog.
Your niche shouldn't be too broad or too narrow.
But it can have the potential to get broader in the future.
Ex:
• Too broad: "Pets"
• Too narrow: "Toys for German shepherds"
Find a middle ground.

Pick a domain name that aligns with your niche.
When done right, your domain can be your advantage.
Keep it general enough so you can pivot later if needed.
Use tools like Namecheap to find available domains.
