Discovering What Sells Online - Part 1
Exploring Online Market Trends
Starting an online business often comes with the question: “What sells online?” Unfortunately, there's no clear-cut answer. A quick Google search might offer suggestions, but concrete answers are elusive. Many resources provide ideas on what you can sell online, but few offer guaranteed returns.
Diving into Information Products
If you're considering information products, platforms like Clickbank.com and Paydotcom.com are abundant with options. However, evaluating these products can be tricky, often relying on exaggerated sales pitches promising quick wealth. While Clickbank provides metrics like gravity and affiliate percentages, finding truly effective products remains a challenge.
You might find yourself jumping from one product to another, depleting both your energy and capital, and wondering if making a living online is truly possible. Sound familiar? Maybe you’ve experienced this with tangible products on eBay as well.
A New Perspective on Selling Online
To truly discover what sells online, you need a fresh perspective:
Big Picture Thinking
Online selling mirrors the real world: location matters. Imagine your online store as a storefront. To succeed, it must be in a high-traffic area. Are you struggling because your site lacks visitors? Traffic generation is crucial. Without visitors, even the best products won't sell.
Generating Traffic
Traffic primarily comes from search engines and backlinks. To attract visitors, your website needs high-quality, relevant content. This requires knowledge of search optimization strategies and the ability to create engaging content.
Understanding Product Demand
Selling a product without demand is futile. Just like offline selling, the demand must be there. For example, selling summer clothes in winter isn't effective. Similarly, offering satellite dishes to those with cable TV is a wasted effort.
Assessing Demand
Research is key. While buzz can be misleading, thorough market research provides clarity. For tangible products, tools like eBay’s Marketplace Research or Terapeak.com help track sales trends and product popularity. Popular categories on eBay include Consumer Electronics and Women's Clothing.
For digital products like eBooks, CBTrends.com can provide valuable insights. By analyzing data from Clickbank, you can identify products with promising sales potential. Look for new products with significant sales, modest competition, and high dollar value per sale, especially if you're using pay-per-click advertising.
