but how we determine a successful dropshipping store ?
first metric i look for is traffic : the higher the succesful the store is. also i want to see the traffic source as that also determines the success of the store and is it driving traffic from one source or multiple sources.
the second metric i look to is the products listed in the store, some products you can tell right away that they are dropshipped from china, and if the store is successful enough they will go ahead and brand the product or add an extra feature to it for them to stand out from the other dropshippers.
third metric i look to is their following on social media and if they are using any of those channels to drive ads, if yes then i would see how many ads they are running currently.
