hmm, do you think this is a good idea for a niche site?

i was thinking that there aren't any sites that review nimh batteries and chargers side by side. there are bunch that say this brand is good, but not that many that compare them. what do you guys think? would that be a good site to make? and i dont really care if somebody steals my ideas (or else i wouldn't be posting this), since i'd be just as happy if somebody else made the site... target demographic would probably be digital camera owners of course.

Sounds like a great idea to me :)

I was just reading an article the other day about how a lot of sites
try to be everything to everyone.

That's the beauty of the internet. There are so many people accessing it that
a niche idea often can still attract many viewers. :cool:

I think it would be great to have a review of those batts. However, I think you are going to be WAYYYYY to focused. That would be like having a site dedicated to the topograpghy of the third largest crater on Io. (Well, not really, but I like hyperbole ;) ) Great for the people who need it, but not wide enough to be worth your time UNLESS it is something you really care about. Then that is all that matters.

where was this article? i'm always interested in web related publications :)

i totally agree though, and what you end up with is a lot of repetition. i think both groups (sites and users) are better off with more focused sites..

totally! i love it when i find a site that is popular because it focuses on one topic and does it really well.
