Is it important to evaluate what your competitors are doing online?

There are hundreds or thousands of sellers just like you, and they are all, or the vast majority of them, work hard to attain a top position. Considering this, it is as if you are all running to get a trophy, so to speak, like athletes. In order to gain a competitive advantage, do you feel it is important and ethical to keep an eye on what your competitors are doing? I think that it is a helpful way to get new ideas and see areas where you need to improve. It can also help you validate your keyword choices.

Yes, whether you are a freelancer or webmaster, it is always important to evaluate what your competitor is doing. This is because they are the people you are trying to beat in order to become more successful than them. It is important to learn useful techniques that your competitors are using and make it your own technique. It is definitely not unethical as your competitors is probably doing the same to you. For example, when measuring my SEO improvements, I always compare my SERP with my competitors. This helps me get a very good idea of how much more work I need to do before I can beat them on rankings.

Yes is my answer but it depends on the kind of competitors. I will be focusing on the successful competitors like in the ranking, I would check the number 1 up to number 5 maybe. And the competitors lower than my website can be ignored. But I will not copy what my competitors are doing. I will study why they are successful and think of a way to do it in another way. For me, copying is not a good way to do business.
