I must have been living under a rock for the past several years because I never once heard or visited johnchow.com before yesterday. I had found his site as a link-of-a-link-of-a-link while reading the message forums at Tim Ferris’s fourhourworkweek.com site that is a companion to his successful book, The4 Hour Work Week.

As many of you who read this blog know, I have been stuck on how to a) get a popular blog and yes b) make money on the Internet -  for a while now. I have the technical knowledge, and devour different techniques when I read them in print, but I don’t seem to have one thing – the niche to end all niches.

I don’t consider myself a boring person, really, but when it comes to online marketing the advice is always the same: find a niche that excites you and run with it. But what if you don’t have a niche? Or maybe you don’t recognize your own niches?

John offers a free 59 page ebook that explains in real terms what it takes to go from 0 to making $10,000/mo or more blogging. But, there’s that niche thing again. I just don’t know what interests me. Besides online marketing / affiliate marketing (which is a “black niche” since everybody tries to do it) I really don’t know what else to blog about.

If anybody out there has some kind of niche profiler questionnaire, please let me know… perhaps it will jump start my brain cells a little.
