How to measure the competition for online store ?

[Rab121]

Hello , first I'm sorry about the beginner's questions ,

I looking for niche to open online store and try to find niche that there is no bery high competition.

something that I can compete in this niche .

My main question is how to measure the competition for online store?

I mean when I do research on main keywords for the niche store.

I see the overview and the SERP Analysis ,which parameters I see as a hard competition?

-lets say I take the average of "Linking RDs To Root Domain" , which numbers are ok and no very high ?

-I check all the page rank and see the average of first page , how I can if average of 5-6-7 is ok or hard competition?

-the sane question is Page Authority , is there is some range that I can see hard competition?

If you have some articles that can help me to learn and understand that world , or some place to start there I will be happy

Thank you , Mark

Mark,

The Moz tools offer some excellent competition comparisons. You can create a campaign, input keywords to track and follow competition. The tracking shows DA, linking C blocks, etc. and will track on a line graph how your site is doing against the competition.

As far as selecting an industry or niche, this will take lots of research. My suggestions would be to find something that you're knowledgeable or passionate about. This way you have lots of content you'll be excited about creating.

There are many things you need to consider when selecting a keyword to go after. But in your situation i would tell you to look at these two, keyword competition and indexed pages for the keyword. This will help you see how much competition there is for a specific niche.

There's lots of tools you can use to get more information, and if you're going to go forward with launching a site do your due diligence and research. Good luck to you.
