Most sellers treat competition like a threat. Here’s the truth: your competitors are handing you a roadmap if you know how to read it.
Every review they get.
Every price change they make.
Every keyword they rank for.
Every photo they update.
All of it signals what’s working and where the gaps are.
Quick ways to start decoding them:
- Scroll to 3-star reviews. These reveal what buyers want and what competitors aren’t delivering.
- Watch sudden listing updates. A new image or bullet often signals something wasn’t converting.
- Track pricing patterns. Erratic pricing can indicate low sales or stock issues; stable pricing shows confidence.
The winners aren’t guessing. They’re observing and acting.
