It is the goal of anyone seeking to make money on the Internet to find a good market. Some markets are better than others. Some markets have people who are more willing to buy things than others. Some markets have more demand than others.
The goal is to find a market which has enough demand and enough of a space for you to make a niche of your own and make an offer that would be of interest to that market.
