- Why users should download the app
- How will this benefit users
- How to use the app
We made sure to describe the app in a natural way and not stuff the description with keywords. After submitting our revised description, app installs have increased from 68 units to 144 units in one month.
Keywords and Appearance
It is important to include an icon and several tutorial-like images of the app. This gives users a preview of the app’s key features.
Apple App Store has a 100-character keyword field and was used to input our keywords (tags). As a result, the app shows up for users who enter our keywords in the search field.
Google Play extracts keywords from the app description and does not use a keyword tag feature. We implemented the same app description used in the Apple App Store.
SEO on Minisite
