As i am an beginner for the product research, what I do is, I have an Instagram account that show me products that are viral on foreign market like in USA, UK, Canada, etc. Some products from there and then check the availability in India is this product is available or not, what I mean to say is, is this product easily available or not? Then if it is available. I don’t sell it, and if it is not easily available, then I check the Indian Amazon for the availability. If it is passed from there, I check Facebook ad Library. Are there any competitor than if the product is filter out from all the step then I sell it
So what I want you to tell is this process right?
How can I know that this product is viral on foreign market like USA, Canada, UK, and Europe and maybe in Middle East?
What is the best product research method
How can I spot the winning product?
Is there any other resources for free in product research?
Is anything I miss in the product research?
Note, I don’t have any money for paid product research tools. So only suggest me free methods

Or is it mostly just a slow trust-building thing that never really shows up in the numbers lol.Doing this for EventHex right now and genuinely trying to set realistic expectations for myself , How long did it take before you saw any real signal,if at all ?

--- Not necessarily.
Having thousands of pages indexed by Google might look impressive, but indexation alone doesn’t mean those pages are actually performing well.

Here’s how I look at it:

• Index coverage tells you how many pages can appear in search.
• Search performance tells you whether those pages are actually doing something useful.

For example, a website might have 5,000 indexed URLs, but most of them could be getting very few impressions, no clicks, or ranking for keywords that don't bring meaningful traffic.

Some pages might also:

• Target the same search intent and compete with each other.
• Rank for low-value or irrelevant queries.
• Get impressions but hardly any clicks.
• Start ranking well and gradually lose visibility.
• Provide little real value to the person searching.

This becomes even more important with AI Search SEO. Instead of simply creating and indexing more pages, the focus should be on whether each page genuinely answers a user's question and satisfies their search intent.

And one more thing: being indexed today doesn't guarantee visibility tomorrow. Search performance can change as Google's systems reassess the quality, relevance, and usefulness of a page.

So, rather than asking, “How many pages do I have indexed?”, a better question is:
“Are my indexed pages actually helping users and bringing valuable organic traffic?”
That’s a much better way to judge SEO performance.

Hey all, quick one 👋

A fast-growing Vienna startup is hiring a *Head of Growth* and I'm helping them find the right person.

• AI product for SMBs, 10,000+ customers
• $1M → $10M ARR in under 12 months, €20M raised
• 7-figure monthly budget, owns the engine behind ~90% of revenue
• Performance, SEO, CRO, lifecycle + product growth (pricing, onboarding)
• Builds the team from scratch, reports to the CEO
• Up to €250k + significant equity, Vienna based, relocation covered

Profile: someone who has scaled paid acquisition on a low-ACV, high-velocity motion in more than one market. B2C and D2C backgrounds very welcome, this is not a classic enterprise demand-gen role.

If that's you or someone you know, DM me and I'll share the details and make the intro.

trying to understand the paid advertising landscape in my category before investing significant budget. know that meta has an ad library and google has a transparency tool but not sure how to use these effectively or whether there are better approaches, including tools like AdPlus.

specifically trying to understand what hooks and angles competitors are using, what platforms they are prioritizing, and whether there are gaps in how they are targeting that i could exploit. the manual research process feels inefficient and incomplete

I see so many people complaining about meta.

Meta isn’t the problem.

There are people spending $1M/day profitably.

If you want help, I’ve personally spent over $10M on meta and specialize in high ticket lead gen / acquisition but also crush ecom.

Drop your questions below and I’ll happily give you guidance.

Just be as clear as possible about what your challenge is, what you’ve tried, what you think the solution is, etc.

If you have a growth marketing agency or worked at one before, I need your help.

Here are some bullet points about my experience:

- I led growth projects at many unicorns and a big company that specializes in helping SMBs grow.
- I worked on multiple different channels and results are consistently impressive.
- Grew my own channels to half million followers.
- I build AI tools for marketing teams, have a CS degree, and have excellent technical skills.
- I truly enjoy growth marketing for impactful products and can achieve rapid growth for startups.

I decided to start my own growth experimentation firm and I got some startups interested already. One of the founders is very excited to move forward as fast as possible and I still haven’t locked in scope.

The parts I like:

- full funnel auditing
- growth hacks translated into experiments
- customer, competitor, and market research
- designing experiments and providing experiment briefs that are ready to execute
- implementing AI workflows and systems for experiments that need that
- data and results analysis

The part I don’t like:

- managing daily ad spend, writing blog posts, basically implementing the experiment myself

Would you advise me to do implementation myself or ask the startups for someone on their team to execute (mainly the daily work not the strategy or setup)? Do you know any other successful models I can adopt?

Thank you for your help!

Hi,

I develop mobile applications for iOS. I have around 5 and I have no time or expertise to promote these apps.

Two of them are making around 200-300 MRR in total. And both of them are in Utilities/Photo Video category.

So, I look someone who knows how to boost these apps. I open for offers especially fellow/partnership options.

Not: these are not vibe-coded apps and both of them live around +1.5 years.

Thanks

I'm trying to build a better understanding of how visible our brand is across AI search platforms.
The frustrating part is that visibility changes depending on the question being asked. Sometimes we appear for one topic but completely disappear for another similar query.
With traditional search, tracking progress was much easier because rankings were clear.
Now I'm trying to figure out what brands are using to monitor AI visibility over time instead of manually checking random prompts.
What metrics actually matter here?
