It might be good to think of the Airbnb story here. When Airbnb launched they were called Airbed & Breakfast and where offering airbeds in private rooms and their largest market was New York city. Few understood how big of an opportunity it was at the time.

Most of the very best marketplaces start with a small niche area that works very well and then expand out of that. Cocusocial is currently the largest cooking class provider in New York - the largest city in US.
