We know that it can be tough to make a decision when you’re searching for products to sell online.
We want to remove some of the guesswork that comes with finding a product, and enable you to make data-driven decisions about which products are best for your business.
That’s exactly why we’ve introduced actionable product statistics to all product listings on Oberlo.
In the sections below we’ll look at the data points and features that we’ve added, and explain how to find winning products on Oberlo leveraging them to your advantage.
How to Find Products on Oberlo Using Data
Here are the data points you should factor into your product selection process:
Star Ratings and Review Counts
When you search for products on Oberlo you’ll see a star rating for every listing which ranges from 0 to 5 stars.
Also, we’ve added the review count – the number of reviews which have been left for each product – next to the star rating.
This statistic will help you to gauge how reliable the current star rating is. If, for example, you see that a product has a 5 stars after 100 reviews, you can assume that it’s high quality.
However, this doesn’t necessarily mean that products which have less reviews are unreliable – they could just be brand new to Oberlo.
Overall the star ratings and review counts will help you to understand how certain products resonate with your target audience – products that you might be thinking about adding to your store.
Order Count
We want you to know the exact number of orders that each product has received whenever you’re searching for new products for your store. This data will help you to gauge just how competitive a product is, and how popular it will likely be with your potential target audience.
When you click on a product listing, you’ll see the order count from the past 6 months.
We’ve compiled the data like this to help you understand how the product has performed historically, so you can make better decisions during your selection process.
