By now almost everyone has heard the term Niche Sites. It is a very popular, and manytimes overused buzz word amongst internet marketers. It seems that almost everyone who wants to build a site is jumping on the bandwagon an building niche site in hopes of dominiating the search engine rankings for their particular niche and making tons of money. And for good reason. Before I go into that lets define the term a bit further. A niche site can be defined as a site that focuses on a narrow subject or market. Examples might include pets, fishing, landscaping, parenting, etc. The biggest advantage of focusing on a particular niche is that big businesses usually don’t bother and the competition is less fierce. The trick to finding a good niche is to find one which is rich in keywords that people search for, has high monthly volume, and is not satuated by big competition.

Generating More Traffic For Your Site With Google Alerts
We all know that fresh content is important in getting picked up by the search engines. They don't want to pick up and rank old rehashed information. Not only that, but the content needs to be relevant. Do you know about Google Alerts? It is a great way to have google email you the latest news in your niche to your email box. Google alerts helps you keep up with the latest news in your niche and I highly recommend using google alerts for your main keywords. You can go to http://www.google.com/alerts in order to signup for your main keywords.
One way to use this infomation is to use these alerts in order to help provide fresh and relevant content. The way to do this is through social commentary. An example was late last year there were reports about a certain celebrity driving around with her young son on her lap and no seatbelt amongst other things. So I did a post on my parenting site and expressed concerns and opinions. Just remember, proper social edicate dictates that you mention and link to the source of the information and if you quote from any article give proper credit. It is very important that you not just rewrite the article or news but make it your 'own' by providing valuable commentary and opinion. Google will love you for it.
However, where does google get their news from? Can you beat google to the punch and get a jump on them? Its hard, but well worth it if you can. Here is one ideas that many people overlook.
