Shoot what you enjoy and are good at.  Don't force yourself into a particular category. 

I shoot nature.  Not the best 'category' to make money in as the market is flooded with outstanding images.  However, it's what I know best and what I do best.  I tried shooting people, results were terrible.   

Making any significant income in stock photography nowadays is a pipe dream so rather than stress over the $ by shooting something you may not enjoy (and the results will show that) go out and just have fun with it by shooting what you like.

yes, i understood.
I will analyze my sales and check which are the best sales. After, I will invest in these areas.

I know, but i´m asking the categories, not the specifically photos.

Even if you had access to internal agency statistics, it still wouldn't be clear which images you should shoot. Popularity breeds competition. For example images of jumping goldfish are very popular, but many people produce these shots so how will yours not get buried by the competition?

Creating for a niche which is NOT popular is probably more effective than repeating what already is popular.

Thanks for your comment. You have reason. I will look for i can make it and think is better.

It's actually somewhat irrelevant or at least auto-regulating to some degree.

The best-selling categories are by far the most competitive and also attract those with the most talent and the most money to spend on their shoots. As a newbie you will probably be out of your depth trying to take sales in such categories.

You need to shoot what interests you, what you have knowledge of and what you have relatively cheap access to. As Sean says you refine your work through experimentation and experience.

Thanks for your comment, but you don´t know my work and don´t know if my work is better than any other people who lead best sales.
But, i understood you.

I don't know the answer to your questions, but do you think anyone who knows is going to share this knowledge with a potential rival?

I know, but i´m asking the categories, not the specifically photos.
