Selecting a niche is one of the biggest steps in the beginning stages of your influencing career. If you’re looking to make a profit, the cash typically won’t be flowing in at first, so picking a niche that people find interesting is very important.
Ultimately, following your passion will lead you to success. However, sometimes that passion isn’t as popular or shared with as many people compared to hobbies like traveling or fashion. This can make monetizing your influence trickier, so how do you achieve success despite working in an unconventional niche?
Below are 4 examples of rare influencer niches and how to promote yours.
1. Teacher influencers
Teacher influencers’ audiences mainly consist of other instructors, homeschool moms, and people who want an inside look at school happenings and functions.
These influencers are crucial resources for their fellow educators. They post creative materials and classroom lesson plans, as well as look for ideas and tips to gain from other teachers.
2. Cleanfluencers
“Cleanfluencers” came to light during the wellness trend and share content about keeping their homes squeaky clean. Some of the things cleanfluencers focus on include:

Not only do cleanfluencers feature cleaning hacks, product reviews, and recommendations, they also give their audience the satisfaction and enjoyment of cleaning without having to move a muscle.
3. SEO influencers
Search engine optimization (SEO) can help you improve your visibility in search results, increasing the likelihood for viewers to click through and find your profile. The specifics of SEO can be hard to master. That’s where SEO influencers’ advice and knowledge can come in handy.

They understand small changes in digital and search marketing fields, explain SEO trends, and share useful SEO tips.
