I present myself i'm ro ky seo, a begginner in this field and i want to learn the most possible from seo,

What i desire is oppening a shopify store, in a niche withLow competiton and high keywords volume.

Unfortunately it doesn't exist in my country (france).

The keys information i have gathered so far and i think is important on semrush are
Identifying 2-3 competitors in my niche
Check their - amount of keywords
-organic search traffic
-amount of backlinks
-reffering domains
-top 10 keywords

I don't understand yet what is the limit on all these stats, i can outrank them as a begginner in seo and with a brand new domain.
Can someone explain to me how i know i can outrank them based on stats out of semrush or another seo tool (or any other stats than what i proposed,^^).

this is by far the most difficult aspect of the seo journey for me.
i'm open to any replys and ressources if you have them avalaible. Thanks you :)

You've done a bit of research, now you can set sail and adjust your plan as you progress. Seems like you have done some homework so far. But you'll have to actively promote it on socials and build good backlinks if you want to get regular sales.

I don't use semrush to figure things out, I mostly make my decisions now based on the supply chain, the inventory, and the spare capacity in the market for that domain niche.

If you are thinking about opening more than one store to diversify, I suggest using woo instead along with a decent theme, as you can bring your costs right down compared to Shopify.

Get everything finished though, don't worry so much about SEO atm, you have a lot of admin work to do. Then once you are up and running, have a finished site, and getting a trickle of 1 or 2 visits a day, then you can think about some SEO, as this will obviously indicate your site is ready for the google belly!

Remember to document your process thoroughly. So you have a blueprint for the next one. Success or failure.

I see interdsting, i tought it was better to start with a well optimised seo shop from the bath, but i will try to follow as you say it seem more natural and smooth.
Unfortunately good shopify themes are expensive and i'm a broke student :(. I litterally have 5€ in my bank account to hold untill 4 december.
I understand what backlinks, but what are your favorite ways to get them? (Ideally cheap aha)
 
  1. Find Out The Difficulty of The Keyword You Want to Rank for. ...
  2. Find Out The Domains That Has Ranked Top for Your Target Keyword. ...
  3. Content Quality. ...
  4. Backlink Quality. ...
  5. On-Page SEO. ...
  6. The Anchor Text. ...
  7. Number of Do-follow & No-follow Links.
 
I often use Ahref and later semrush to analyze competitors for each keyword that I am SEO.
