What "popular" doesn't mean

  • Popular ≠ easy. Business is #1 because demand and monetization are both huge — competition follows.
  • Niche-within-niche wins. Don't build "for entrepreneurs" — build for agency owners doing $10-50k/mo.
  • Smaller categories can be more profitable if you own the sub-niche.
