How I Used ChatGPT + Search Console Data to Discover a High-Demand Niche I Never Expected

Tech bloggers often hit a wall where they can’t tell what to write next. I was exactly there—around 100 posts in, traffic growth stalled, and I had no clue which direction to take.

So I fed my Google Search Console and Google Analytics raw data directly into ChatGPT and asked a simple question:

“Which category should I prioritize to grow SEO?”

The answer was nothing I would have predicted.

■ “Your site is basically an error-solution hub right now.”

ChatGPT analyzed the data and immediately responded:

“Focus on error-related articles first.
That’s where your current traffic is concentrated.”

This surprised me.
I thought those posts were just one-off log entries documenting errors I personally encountered. But the data showed that 70–80% of my organic traffic was coming from error-fix searches:

  • ChatGPT “Something went wrong”
  • Copilot connection errors
  • Random Windows warnings
  • Browser 504/502 issues
    …basically the errors I happened to experience myself.

Readers weren’t browsing—they were trying to fix something right now.
And ZIDOOKA! happened to answer those queries.

■ When I doubled down on error articles, traffic jumped instantly

After I expanded that category intentionally, daily traffic doubled or tripled almost overnight.

It worked because ChatGPT isn’t guessing—it’s extracting patterns:

  • which queries are rising
  • which pages hold users longer
  • which issues appear on mobile vs desktop
  • which clusters are already ranking

It’s essentially AI-driven niche discovery based on real search behavior, not intuition.

■ What I learned

Technical blogs don’t grow by writing “what you want to write”—
they grow by solving “what users are currently struggling with.”

ChatGPT acted like a data-driven editor, synthesizing logs and surfacing the exact niche with the highest return.

For ZIDOOKA!, that niche was error troubleshooting—and once I leaned into it, the results were immediate.

ZIDOOKA!
