What Does 'Niche Audience' Mean?

Brainrot Score: 5.4 β“˜NICHE
[ SLANG ][ AUDIENCE ][ NOUN ]

A small, tightly-defined group of viewers with very specific shared interests, distinct from an audience cluster by describing the deliberate targeting strategy rather than an organically-formed sub-group.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"The niche audience is tiny but they show up for literally every single post."

LORE & ORIGIN

Standard creator-strategy terminology for deliberately building around a narrow, specific interest rather than chasing broad appeal.
