How to recognize a professional mobile app promotion service

1. Reputation and experience

Look for a service that has a good reputation in the industry and a track record of successfully promoting apps. Read online reviews and check the company’s blog to see examples of past work. As a rule, a reliable agency actively maintains social networks – Facebook, Linkedin, YouTube channel, answers questions in Quora website and speaks at conferences.

2. Services offered

Make sure the service offers the types of promotion that you need for your app. Some services may specialize in specific areas such as app store optimization, social media marketing, or influencer marketing. It is better to start keyword promotion after or at the same time as ASO. The rest of the channels will perfectly complement your marketing strategy.

3. Clear Pricing

Compare pricing plans from different services and make sure you understand what is included in each plan. Some services may charge a flat fee for their services, while others may take a percentage of your app’s revenue. Check that in the selected promotion service you pay only for the number of installations that you ordered. On keyapp.top platform you can see the total amount automatically when making an order.

4. Experience in promoting similar applications

Look for a service that has experience in promoting apps like you have. You can ask the support Team if they promoted the similar app or check the company’s blog with relevant cases.

5. Pleasant and comfortable communication with the Support Team
