    Good luck with that! I also added some of products from Ali (both Express and Baba :) ) to my store. Initial reason was to offer customers a free shipping option (unavailable otherwise), but it turned into a nice opportunity to make more sales as well. I still mostly ship from my own stock and handle shipping myself (including dropshipping for others), but slowly increase a number of items to be dropshipped directly from China too.

    Hello, great to hear about your journey and I will be sure to follow. I was just wondering how you will be automating this through aliexpress and woocommerce; I have been looking for a auto update product plugin for awhile.

    Niche selection
    Most important for every eCommerce store. If you do it wrong, then the whole planning will be worthless. So, you need to do it smartly.
    • First of all, My targeted audience will mostly be from USA, UK, Canada and Australia. These country peoples are crazy for purchasing from online.
    • Our audience will be from organic search(Google, Bing, etc.) and Facebook Ads. So the niche selection will be bit trickier as Facebook Ads will be on our list.
    Things to keep in mind
    • You need to find out the crazy niche and research its products. If you find something very crazy, but products are very limited, then it will be destructive to run a site on that niche. For instance, Maternity (pregnant women) niche which is damn crazy niche but you do not find the variation of right products on eBay or AliExpress.
    • Find any niche that people are mad for, want to buy products related to that niche.
    • Use Google Keyword Planner to see the relevant keywords for that niche to get an idea about search engine search volume.
    • Search in Google using your niche and see some results shown.
    • Then go to YouTube and search for that niche. See the available amount of youtube videos
    • Go into Facebook Audience Insight to validate Facebook audience for your niche. Keep in mind that if the average monthly active people on Facebook for your niche is more than 1 million, then it's good for Facebook Ads.
    I am going to share some screenshots of above steps. No worries :)

    woocommerce is the best choice and has plugins to add products automatically...
