interests, write down as many niche ideas as you can. Think about topics people might
search online. Ideas include passions (like surfing or body building), fears (like spiders
or speaking in front of crowds) and problems (like getting out of debt). Do keyword
research to see it others are interested in the topic. Find out if a domain name is
