📚 What This Tutorial Covers

‍

AliExpress Product Research Made Easy

‍

Goal: Learn how to perform detailed product research on AliExpress to find high-demand, profitable items for your eBay or Shopify store.

‍

This tutorial walks you through using ZIKs Product Research Tool with AliExpress as the source marketplace.

‍

✅ Insight: By researching directly from AliExpress, you can analyze real product demand, seller performance, and identify trending items to dropship.

‍

1. Start Product Research on AliExpress

‍

Goal: Access the AliExpress marketplace for direct product data.

‍

On the left-hand menu, click Product Research.

‍

Switch from eBay to AliExpress.

‍

Now you can search for any product keyword — for example, “LED lights.”

‍

You’ll instantly see live product data from AliExpress sellers, including prices, sales, and performance metrics.

‍

✅ Tip: Use broad keywords first, then narrow down based on the results that show the strongest demand.

‍

2. Analyze Product Metrics

‍

Goal: Identify strong-performing products worth listing.

‍

You can filter your results by:

‍

• Sales Range – Minimum sales for performance validation. ‍
• Price Range – Focus on profitable items within your target budget. ‍
• Sell-Through Rate (STR) – Indicates real demand strength. ‍

Click on a product and then hit the Analysis Icon to open its detailed view.

‍

You’ll see full data including:

‍

• Seller Information (country, feedback, rating) ‍
• Shipping Speed ‍
• Communication Quality ‍
• Item Description Accuracy ‍

✅ Pro Tip: Focus on sellers with high feedback and 4.6+ ratings for reliability and faster delivery.

‍

3. Save & Organize Products

‍

Goal: Build a library of verified winning items.

‍

After reviewing a product, select a folder and click Save Product to store it for future use.

‍

You can later access your folders under My Products to list or compare items easily.

‍

4. Scan Titles on eBay

‍

Goal: Find active dropshippers already selling the same product.

‍

Click the eBay Scan Icon next to the product title.

‍

ZIK will automatically search eBay for matching listings.

‍

If the product title is too specific, simplify it — remove extra words and keep only the core keywords.

‍

Then filter the results by Dropshippers Only to find active sellers using AliExpress as their source.

‍

✅ Pro Tip: Scan the top dropshippers you find, check their stores, and snipe their best-selling items for your own listings.
