Are you wishing that you can get your hands on the most searched blog topics that are specific to your niche?

Is it one of the blogging tasks that you would like to outsource either now or in the future?

Let me know if this sounds familiar or even very close to home.

You absolutely enjoy creating content for your blog on a regular basis to include the images.

However, one of the things you dislike is SEO or doing keyword research to come up with new topics every week or day.

The moment you get a chance or budget you would hand this task off for someone else to do it.

I can assure you that there are many bloggers like you out there who struggle with SEO or doing topic and keyword research.

Doing SEO and topic research is a service that I offer to my clients. If you don’t have the budget yet then read on.

In this post, you will learn about the most searched blog topics across 9 different niches to give you a head start.

What Qualifies As the Most Searched Blog Topics?

There are quite a number of articles written about the most searched blog topics that are not quite accurate.

Many of them give you a list of the most search high-level niches but they fail to address specific niche topics.

I don’t want to lose you altogether so let me go into more detail right here.

Some of the most popular blog niches include mom blogs, beauty blogs, personal finance blogs and even food blogs.

Each of those blogs then covers broad topics or categories. For example, a mom blog may have information about potty training.

While a food blog may cover diets like keto or vegan. Some food blogs only focus on desserts or salads.

In other words, a niche blog has content across several topics.

So, to qualify as a blog topic with lots of searches it needs to be a piece of content within a specific niche.

Pinterest Topics or Categories

To help you understand the idea of topics better let’s look at the available topics on Pinterest.

Although Pinterest may not be the best example of topics for blogs, it can still point you in the right direction.

If you head on over to pinterest.com/categories/ you will see a grid that looks like this one.

If you click-through on any of those categories you will then be taken to a topics view.

I clicked-through to art and this is what I see in the results.

Here are the results for the topics under sewing.

In case you are wondering what are the top 100 trending topics on Pinterest for 2020 then feel free to check out Pinterest 100 here.

Each time I look at the report I am always surprised to learn what wild and wonderful things are gaining popularity.

Look Back Using Google Trends

If you are one of my regular readers you know that I like to use Google Trends for a number of reasons.

Using it to find the most searched blog topics should be something that you do as well.

Here is a snapshot letting you know what was trending in the US during the year 2019.

The niches shown include food, music, travel, entertainment, weddings and the popular ‘what is’ category.

I am actually quite surprised to see shepherd’s pie so high on the list under recipes.

Who would have thought that the humble shepherd’s pie can become so popular?

Why Choosing the Most Searched Blog Topics is Important?

If you are new to blogging or you just cannot understand how things work in content marketing then keep reading.

Finding the most searched blog topics is important when it comes to getting readers to find your articles.

By this I mean, if no one is searching for it then chances are that no one will find it.

Of course, there are always exceptions to any rule.

You can write the longest article on a topic that is dear to your heart with the hope that people would read it.

However, the secret to getting your articles consumed and appreciated is by writing on topics that your potential readers need to know.

For example, if you have a choice of writing on two different topics but topic A had 20 searches a month and topic B had 1,000 searches a month which one would you choose?

Personally, I would go with topic B as the potential to get a return on my writing investment is higher.

What Are the Top 9 Blog Niches?

Before diving into specific topics I thought it would make sense to first give you a list of the top 9 blog niches.

Here they are in no particular order.

1. Beauty
2. DIY
3. Personal Finance
4. Health
5. Fashion
6. Mom
7. Travel
8. Food
9. Lifestyle

As you can see there will be a wide range of topics simply because these 9 niches are very broad.

Because these niches can be quite broad I have chosen to list 10 most searched blog topics for each of these niches.

You will see a result from Ubersuggest listing the search volume as well as related keywords in some cases.

I really like doing this kind of research so this was quite a fun exercise for me to do and report back to you (not that you asked).🤣

Beauty Blog – 10 Most Searched Topics

I am not an expert in the beauty blogging niche and I don’t even have a beauty blog.

However here are 10 of the most searched blog topics in the beauty niche.

1. Milk Makeup

The first one on the list is milk makeup with 74,000 searches every month. I never even heard of this product in my life.

Here is a shortlist of related keywords to help you gain some traction.

I just had to double-check if the milk makeup blur stick was a concealer and it seems to be, whew! It sounded like a piece of technology for images.

2. Nail Polish Strip

I have to confess that if you are looking for beauty advice don’t come to me because I have no idea what these things are about.

As you can see there are a number of very specific related keywords that you can use to get conversions.

3. Sephora VIB Sale

When I first saw this search phrase I thought it was an error because VIB looked strange.

Anyway, Sephora VIB sale is in at number three with over 9,900 searches every month.

Again a great list of related keywords to help you customise your article to match the search.

4. Sleep Styler

Another totally expected keyword. Sleep styler is there at number 4 with 8,100 searches every month.

Again a good number of related keywords that will help you to tweak your article to match the search.

5. Halo Laser

The good thing about doing this research is that I get to learn about what is happening in niches where I am unfamiliar with the terminology.

Halo laser is on the list at number 5 with 5,400 searches every month. It looks like a really important treatment for many people.

You have to admit that these related keywords are like gold dust for anyone writing on this topic.

6. Skinceuticals Retinol

If you are familiar with this phrase then bless your heart. It is so surprising the kind of phrases that can be found.

At number 6 is Skinceuticals retinol at number 6 with over 3,600 searches a month.

I would have never realised that all these different versions of retinol existed had it not been for these related keywords.

7. Best Glossier Products

Interestingly I never heard of Glossier so I had to go and look this one up. They offer a great range of skincare products.

In order to get the related keywords, I needed to take a step backwards and look up Glossier products.

In case you have not noticed I am a geek at heart when it comes to keyword research and search engine optimisation.

8. Age-Defying Laser Tria

At number 8, we have age-defying laser tria with 1,000 searches per month.

Here is a list of those important related keywords to help you understand the user intent of this search.

It is so interesting to see the number of beauty products available to assist with slowing down the ageing process.

9. Preparation H Under Eyes

Speaking of beauty and ageing here is preparation h under eyes coming in at number 9 with 1,000 searches a month.

The list of related keywords are very good and they get a lot of searches every month. The search difficulty for most of them is also quite low.

I really like the fact that the related keywords in this example are closely related and can be easily added to the same article.

10. Nutrafol vs Viviscal

Finally, at number 10 for the beauty blog niche, we have Nutrafol vs Viviscal with 880 searches per month.

While it is a very focused keyphrase it is ideal for the buyer journey at the consideration phase which is very close to converting into a sale.

The related keywords are not really different from the original keyphrase which confirms the specificity of this search.
