I would avoid going into areas with lots of existing hype (e.g. privacy-friendly website analytics) where you'll compete with literally thousands of companies from all over the world and where you'll have very few ways to truly stand out.

Business models that are more defensible are those that require bigger investments and deeper expertise to build, as that will make it more difficult to copy for incumbents.
