Finding a product with strong demand is important, but understanding the competition is equally important. Many new sellers enter crowded markets and struggle to gain visibility.

Start by looking at the number of reviews top-selling products have. If most listings have thousands of reviews, it may be difficult for a new seller to compete. Also, check product images, pricing, and customer feedback to identify areas where existing products can be improved.

The goal is not to find a product with zero competition. Instead, look for products where you can offer better value, improved features, or a stronger customer experience.
