How the trending digest works

A live search sample ranked by each listing’s sales counter

We pick categories with steady Gulf demand (earbuds, phone gear, kitchen, fitness, kids, beauty), query the AliExpress search API for each category sorted by “top sales”, rank the results by the per-listing sales counter the platform itself provides, and show the top 10 with a one-line fact sheet drawn from that data: orders, current discount, positive-feedback rate. We do not use the official hot-products API (not granted to our app yet), so we honestly call this a “top-sellers sample per category”, not an official trending chart.

FAQs

What does the “orders” number next to each product mean?

It is the sales counter AliExpress exposes for the listing (its latest recorded sales volume). We show it as-is, abbreviated (e.g. 12K) — it comes from the platform, not from us, and may not cover the full sales history.

How often does the list update?

It is fetched live on each visit with caching of up to an hour, so it reflects roughly the last hour. The “Refresh list” button re-fetches immediately.

Why fixed categories instead of searching any product?

The six categories are hand-picked for steady Gulf demand, and each category costs one AliExpress API call — our app is in test status with a limited quota. To look up a specific product, use the search-term translator or the price checker.
