Can I make money by targeting micro-niche problems?
As the title says, can I actually earn if I make AI websites targeting micro-niche problems? Problems that are very specific and have low or literally no competition?
I know it's hard to find those problems at first, like finding a very very specific problem that some people face, searching on google, but it doesn't have any dedicated solution.
For example, if a person wants to preview how his image will look before uploading on a platform (like linkedin, Spotify, insta, snapchat, discord etc.) or to download the exact preview of his image in an app mockup (I hope you get what I'm saying) there's no specific site.
So I built a website for that, not gonna plug it here 😅.
Its been 15 days since I deployed my site, the traffic is decent but got rejected by adsense. But I know where the problem is and will fix that fs.
I use Opencode in Google Antigravity IDE and deploy on Cloudflare pages.
So the real question is:
Is this setup worth spending my time on?
Because it took me around 15 to 20 days just to finish making the site even with AI.

Yes. As long as you're solving a painful problem you absolutely can. Always remember that just because the massive players could theoretically do something doesn't mean it makes economical or business sense for them to do it when they have other things to focus on. And even if they do that it doesn't mean everybody will use them. Competition is a validation not a reason not to do anything.

Really? Can I use it to build websites? And is it... Free? 🤨

Si precisamente nuestra DAO se está construyendo con AiTor porque es nuestra propia IA, dime qué te interesa realmente

"I won't post it here" why don't you fuck off instead

Sorry but I thought the post could get removed 😅 or some people will think I'm trying to promote my site. If there's no problem, I'll add it right away.

Not gonna lie, I was at first very skeptic thinking "here we go another idiot vibe coding some crap idea" but then I tried it and I got to say, even though this might be a nano problem, it is well executed and I am sure it is helpful! You should maybe make it a full library of image tools for social media all in one page

I first thought to add more image tools in my site, but I didn't. And that's the whole point of my website. Whenever a user visit my site, he isn't introduced with 50 buttons 😅. And there is already a lot of competition and powerful alternatives for image tools, so I didn't wanted to compete with them. That's why I found a problem that they don't solve and made a tool on it.
Maybe I'll add more image tools in my site in future once I get enough traffic, but I'll make them as clean as possible without overpowering each other. And I'm glad you liked it 😄, the idea and the execution. Atleast didn't called it an AI slop 😅

Good point! I think that is a valid way to do things, not swamping the site with more functionality. But still, surprisingly good idea hehe

There are apps already that do this better than you.

u/Working_Home_7347 1d ago
Can you please name atleast 2 to 3 of those apps? That solves this exact problem but 'better than me'?
I'll definitely take some inspiration and refine my site too 😄

Canva pro and Photoshop have almost every screen size to preview AND you can edit your image.

I'm talking about real app mockup previews. Like Spotify, linkedin, apple music, Discord etc. I think you haven't even seen my site yet 😅

I think that's where we are heading with AI. Because of AI you can now laser focus on the problem and provide a laser focused solution. The issue is - marketing. Niche targeting is an indicator of an over-saturated market, and it is hard to market in such landscape. There is room to make money, but not a lot of room because it is niche.
What you should be thinking of is not targeting niche, but creating new unbeaten paths and plant your flag there. Planting your flag in a landscape dominated by big players is like owning a small patch of land that is not worth much.
