How Users Find Apps

To understand app store optimization, business leaders need to know how people find apps on the Apple Store and Google Play. When they search for a specific app, the results will not just display that app. Results will show a list of other comparable apps. When the search is not for a particular app, the search algorithm will display a list of most relevant results, much like other search engines do. The purpose of app store optimization is to ensure that your app ranks favourably for relevant searches.

Categorization and Description

The purpose of app store optimization is to give users an idea of what the app does. The process will involve categorizing it correctly, including keywords in the description, and attaching screenshots of the various pages within the app, to give users a feel of the UI.

Localization

To maximize the visibility and downloads, it’s equally important to translate the description to languages spoken in all the countries where you are targeting users. Similarly, the images are translated should be relevant to those viewing them.
