You can find all this out by heading over to WordTracker. Word Tracker is a huge database of Internet search queries. Here you can find out the top 500 searches, do research and really dig into a potential market. You can even find out how much online competition you have.

After you've checked the Top 500 Report (just click on "Keyword Report")...

Do some further research to choose a topic for your book

You may find some great ideas from the top 500, but you may want to get more specific. Even if you didn't find anything in the top 500, all is not lost. You can find some nice niche ideas by searching the database.

1. Enter a general keyword into the WordTracker database. Wordtracker will give you a list of related terms.

2. Simply check which words you'd like to research further and check them in the Wordtracker popularity database. Wordtracker will show the number of times the words appeared in the database of over 30 million search queries. This will give you an idea of popularity. Don't worry if your idea doesn't get thousands of searches. A quality book with very targeted information is sure to sell well on the Internet.

3. You can also check your competition. Choose a few keywords that you might want to write your book about and find out how many websites compete with you on various search engines...all with just a click of a button. WordTracker will tell you which keywords will be most profitable to target.

4. Check out a few of your competitors individually. Read their websites and see how you can provide an even better resource for your potential buyers.

Even if you are writing a fiction book, this research can help you brainstorm and choose a topic for your self-published book.
