1. Open a Google Ads account, It's free and not need anything. It's for advertising but you can keyword researching in Google Keyword Planner tool for free. (In Turkish: Anahtar Kelime Planlayıcı )
2. Choose: Discover new keywords
3. Write something like: 3D drawing or animated cartoon.
4. Select your target country. I prefer to USA or other Tier1 countries.
5. Select your language: English
6. Click to "get results"
7. Sort for "Avg. Monthly Searches". It displays these keywords monthly volumes. This values mean people search mostly these keywords so they need them more than other keywords. But It does not mean these top of keywords are best for you. It just displays volumes. You can concentrate a small niches / less volume so you can more success. You need to check competition tab so you can understand which one is less competitive. Best filter is: high volume, high top of page bid, less competition.
8. Repeat again for all your skills, etc: logo design, invitation card bla bla... Be creative and use your imagination skills.

Now you have an idea of what the right niche is for you. A little trick: Sort your keyword result list by "Top of page bid". It will explain which keyword (niche) is more valuable than others. Because business owners can ready for these bids for being top of page on these keywords (niches).
Finally, you can use skills that you have on these niches. If you plan to sell your designs on similar Shutterstock or any digital marketplace, you can use these keywords for better results (use these keywords on your products so people that need your products can find them easily). Or you can use these keywords for building better SEO-oriented websites.
