- 59. ASO ICON NAME DESCRIP TION CATEGO RY App Title: Make sure the app title clearly describes the app and what it does, but keep it short. App Description: This is probably the second most important part of ASO. This is where you sell your app on all its great features! Again, keep it short and concise. App Logo: This is a great way you can creatively express what your app does.
- 60. ASO
- 61. ASO Google Play allows a mobile app promotional video to precede the screen shots.. A great video could push the user over the hump if he or she is contemplating downloading your app.
- 62. Icon Icons: The first things to introduce consumers to your app is the icon. So, it is imperative that your app icon plays a role in conveying your brand identity, while stating its elegance and usability.
- 63. Icon Iconization: The icon takes the key elements of the user interface. This approach creates a more intimate relationship between application and icon when the user sees the icon that the fundamental experience of the application makes them remember. Hyper-real: conceptually capture the intent of the application it represents. Examples: Instagram a retro camera. Brand Focus: the brand is so strong less flexibility
- 64. Title Title-Name: the key word in the title should be the most search traffic you wish to generate. It's good to take advantage of the title to add keywords. For example: BIDI: QR and barcode reader Keywords Title Impact
- 65. Title: Examples • Lose It! – Weight Loss Program and Calorie Counter • iHeartRadio – Free Music & Internet Radio • Positionly – Simple SEO Analytics • CardMunch – Business Card Reader by LinkedIn • Calzy – The Smart Calculator • Wish – Shopping Made Fun • TuneWiki – Lyrics for Music
- 66. Description Description: Included again in on-metadata ASO, descriptions are an important part of the optimization process as it can either make or break search results. One of the best techniques is to break down descriptions into two sections: above the fold and below the fold (very similar to SEO for web). Add1 -2 sentences describing the app and its primary use case – above the fold language. Include a clear and engaging feature set and social proof – below the fold.

Selecting keywords is to choose keywords that are relevant to your app 2. Sort your list by Difficulty Score (from lowest to highest). 3.

- 79. Key Words Title Description Keyword Field 255 characters Does not have direct impact in search factor . 30 characters There is a maximum of 4,000 characters. Include a target keyword about 5 times in your description for best results. 100 characters. Removing all the spaces between your words You generally do not want to include both the plural and singular forms of a word in your keyword list, unless they have similar competition and traffic Do not repeat keyword in title and keyword field. Do put prepositions, articles etc. N/A
