App Store Optimization

As a marketer; you have built the mobile app for your brand and uploaded it into stores. It is now time to market the app to your target market. But wait! If you prioritize Search Engine Optimization (SEO) then why do you think your developer (in around 80% cases) is the best person to write the description of your Mobile App as well as upload the images. There are around 5.4 million apps across Google and Apple Online Stores and we know that 10% of global app traffic comes from Middle-East and North Africa (MENA) region. With stores crowded there are ways to differentiate your app from others; and App Store Optimization or ASO does exactly that. It is imperative that you look for Virality and Stickiness of your mobile application to gauge the success. But it is also extremely important to have more apps install organically. As the below graph shows; 50% app installs (iOS) happen by “Virality” but there are 63% installs that you need from app store searches. So how do you make sure that your app gets downloaded organically as well? The key here is continuous and complex data analysis. Choose the right agency that will delve deep into search trends of the App Stores and Keywords.
