Compete against Target, Wal-Mart, JC Penny, overstock, amazon, Sears for a keyword

Ok...

I'm wanting to build another site but many keywords I'm wanting to target have subdomain pages from the companies mentioned in the title.

an example:

Mens Sport Coats:

According to Market Samurai, the top 10 companies are all big name companies

Should I try of move on???

You'll have to check the top 3 results in the SERPs, & see how strong those individual pages are.

You could always target a smaller niche.

Example: "Mens Large Sport Coats"

It depends on the product/keyword. From my experience I've been able to breeze by Amazon and similar sites with relative ease. Just b/c you see Amazon or WalMart or Target on the first page, don't assume that you can't beat them in the SERPs.

CHEERS!

As long as the individual pages don't have high PR or a lot of links to them, I don't mind seeing the big name companies in the Top 10. They are usually pretty easy to overtake with a little on and off-page SEO.
