Hey bro,Let’s get this conversation going. This is part of my continuing series on what works and what doesn’t on X, formerly known as Twitter.
I have tried to build an account that is focused on politics with a little bit of entertainment mixed in in my experience. Sadly this was a bad choice as I did not see any real growth from posting on a daily basis for six months. My follower count was going up and down, up and down. My research has found that this is a widespread problem in the politics and entertainment industries because of the high volume of bots.
So I ask you this – if you had to start from scratch with 0 followers – what niche would you pick that you think will still be relevant in 2027?
Politics and entertainment are tough for new accounts. Too many bots and big pages already dominating.
Now, this will be completely up to you, but my suggestion will be to look at niches that are more practical and less saturated. For example:
- Health & fitness with a specifics, like - home workouts, specific diets, etc.
- Personal finance for beginners (budgeting, side hustles, simple investing)
- Small business / freelancing tips
- AI tools for everyday people (not big tech talk, just useful tools)
- Local or hobby-based topics that people actually engage with
Maintain consistency and keep posting useful content - they still matter more than the niche itself.
What kind of content do you enjoy making? That usually helps more than chasing the “best” niche.
