How I Researched Keywords And Found A Profitable Product / Niche On The First Try (Print On Demand)

About this video

[Summarized from the Arabic-language transcript] The creator teaches keyword research before designing, arguing you must understand who will buy a design before creating it. He suggests starting from trend information published by sites like Printful and Etsy, noting pandemic-era growth in at-home DIY hobbies — knitting, gardening, woodworking, sewing, painting and similar activities — which can apply to KDP, Merch by Amazon and other products. Using woodworking as an example, he recommends joining Facebook groups and other social communities in the niche (without spamming), reading posts and especially comments, where funny phrases can become T-shirt, PopSocket or hoodie ideas not yet visible in tools. He also uses Productor for Merch by Amazon, Helium 10’s reverse ASIN tool and the free AMZ Suggestion Expander in Amazon’s search bar to find phrases, checks Best Sellers Rank charts for consistent sales rather than spikes, and warns never to copy an existing listing — use it only to confirm demand and avoid trademark problems. A core tactic is taking a proven phrase from one niche, exemplified by ‘I’ll be in my office,’ and applying it to another niche such as woodworking or gardening. The goal throughout is high search volume with low or no competition: if a phrase has search volume but no design ranking for it, creating for it can let you rank and sell.

Key takeaways

• Research before designing: confirm demand and understand the specific buyer in the niche before making a product.
• Mine Facebook groups and video/product comments in a niche for funny phrases members actually use — ideas that keyword tools do not surface yet.
• Use Amazon autocomplete / AMZ Suggestion Expander, Helium 10 reverse ASIN and competitor listings to extract keywords and check for consistent BSR sales patterns.
• Target phrases with proven search volume but low or no competing designs, so a new listing can rank at the top.
• Transfer a proven phrase or concept from one successful niche to a different niche instead of copying an existing design in the same niche, and always check trademarks.
