Niche blogging is the act of creating a blog with the intent of using it to market to a particular niche market . While it could be argued that every blog is, in some form, a niche blog, the term as it applies to marketing refers to a particular kind of blog. Neither blogging nor niche marketing is a new concept. However, only in recent years has the concept of a niche blog come into being. Usually, niche blogs will contain advertisements of some sort pay per click or products or both . In some cases, the purpose of the niche blog is to incite the reader into visiting another website which may then attempt to sell the reader a product or service. Niche blogs are sometimes referred to as splogs , but this is a misnomer. Even though the desired end result for the niche blogger is to make money, the niche blog itself often contains valuable information. Most pay per click advertising is content sensitive, so it is vital to the niche blogger to have useful content that is related to the chosen niche. Features of niche blogging The popularity of niche blogging among new marketers can be attributed to several factors, including cost, adaptability and generating traffic. Cost The most significant reason for the popularity of niche blogging is the cost. Niche bloggers can quickly and easily create a blog for free. In this way, the marketer can determine the viability of the selected niche before making a large investment of time and money. Adaptability Because people s interests often change over time, it is important for a successful marketer to stay up to date on current trends. By using free services, the niche blogger can quickly adapt to the changing market and create a new blog marketed to that niche.

unreferenced date September 2009 This is a glossary of terms commonly used in the study of genetics and related disciplines in biology . It is intended as introductory material for novices for more specific and technical detail, please see the article corresponding to each term. Introductory articles in the field include DNA Gene Genetics Genome Mendelian inheritance NOTOC compactTOC2 A span id adenine span Adenine One of the four nucleotide bases in DNA DNA or RNA RNA pairs with thymine thymine in DNA or uracil uracil in RNA. span id allele span Allele one of multiple alternative forms of a single gene gene , each of which is a viable DNA DNA sequence occupying a given position, or locus locus on a chromosome chromosome . For example, in humans, one allele of the eye color gene produces blue eyes and another allele of the eye color gene produces brown eyes. Affected relative pair An affected relative pair consists of two organisms related genetically that are both affected by the same trait. For example, two cousins who both have blue eyes are an affected relative pair since they are both affected by the allele coding for blue eyes. B span id base pair span Base pair A pair of nucleotide nucleotide bases on complementary DNA DNA or RNA RNA strands organized in a double helix. C span id chromosome span Chromosome a molecular package for carrying DNA DNA in cells, organized as two double helical DNA molecules that encode many gene genes . Some simple organisms have only one chromosome made of circular DNA, while most eukaryote s have multiple chromosomes made of linear DNA. span id chromosome span Cytosine One of the four nucleotide nucleotide bases in DNA DNA or RNA RNA pairs with guanine guanine . D span id DNA span DNA A polymer ic molecule made of deoxyribonucleotide s, hence then name deoxyribonucleic acid .
