The first thing you need to do is to find a product. To do this, you need to check the online market. Is the product you are looking for has a good market online? Some product might have a good market but people may not like to buy it online for some reason.

A good place to check the market is keyword suggestion tool. The most popular one is the overture suggestion tool. You type in a word and it will tell you how many searches of the word in the last month on overture. Since overture covers most popular search engines like yahoo, msn, altvista and so on, it will give you a good idea that how good the online market is for the keyword. A good market should have at least 1000 search for the keyword you typed in.

Before you sep up your online store, one thing is proven to be good to check. You can put a few of the products on online auctions such as ebay. If you can sell on auctions, that means your product definite sells online. If you can not sell it, you may check the reason. Do the product sell for less? If that's the reason, you may need to calculate how much you can make for each item you sell.

The next step is check how the intense of the competition. To do that, you can search the keyword on google. A good keyword should come up with less than 1000,000 results. If the result is too much, that means the keyword is too competitive and it's hard to compete with so many good sites already there.
