Hey guys, any successful entrepreneurs in the outdoor (camping, survival, hiking, tactical) niche dropshipping from Aliexpress?

Unique daily visitors is around 7 - 12, tbh I have no idea why. I tried to make effective SEO links (searching trends, and keyword planning, checking Watchcount.com for hot keywords, etc.)

Posting on Instagram has brought in visitors, but no sales. Started store Nov 21, 2016 now into Mid Feb, reworked website and design in mid Janruary and relaunched marketing campaign this week after a row with FB Ads netted one sale and Google PPC, brought in 4 at this time. Total sales stand at 5.

Wondering how successful this niche can be, with all the Amazon and Ebay competition, is selling no name brand products viable in this niche or is it overcrowded with named competitors? Should i offer more product selection to entice customers to stay and browse selection? Or focus on promoting and marketing products that I know have a sales base?

Would appreciate any thoughts or comments.
