The most popular content niches in Social Media
If you have a Social Media account, our recommendation is to timely decide which content niches you will publish content in. We often set off with a new account on Social Media without knowing the direction we will take it. It is valid for personal accounts, but also for company accounts.
As a general rule, I’ve found that following a content niche helps build a long-term online community. This is certainly much faster than if there were general posts. Posts about… anything.
Both in Romania and globally, there are several types of niche content digital creators follow on their Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok accounts.
The most common niches are: lifestyle (which also includes the categories of fashion & brands), beauty & make-up, travel, comedy, healthcare, sports, music, parenting, cooking / food, cars & motorcycles, photography, gaming, animals, entrepreneurship.
But what is a content niche?
A content niche can be described as a category, a particular industry or a specific topic.
The choice is made by the content creator, in accordance with the activities he likes and the hobbies he has. This choice attracts in turn a specific audience, which in turn is interested in the same topic.
This niche can also help create a closer relationship between the content creator and his or her community.

Even before the “Instagram era”, the lifestyle niche was very strongly developed: the stars were chosen to promote the new collections of the world’s great designers or large store chains.
In Romania, the music niche also has a leading place, artists being very handy to promote their own music via Social Media. For many artists, Instagram has become the favorite place to announce their new songs.
