- Turnover beats raw saturation: A niche with 500 listings and 45% weekly turnover is far easier to penetrate than a quiet niche with 50 static listings that never rotate.
- Price bands reveal buyer clusters: Average prices obscure multimodal distributions. Look for the peak cluster where active buyers actually convert.
- Cross-platform discrepancies are arbitrage: When a category is saturated on ManyVids but underserved on Clips4Sale, multi-homing creators capture uncontested margin.
