The question is what you should do to promote it effectively and your app is ranked in Stores. Users are more likely to install apps that rank in the overall top or top categories of stores, as well as appear in the top positions in the search results for popular queries. Google and Apple do not disclose product ranking algorithms in Google Play and App Store, respectively. The key factors that influence the position of applications in the App Store and Google Play are known. These include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Total number of installs.<\/li><li>Installation dynamics. In the App Store, it is estimated for the last 72 &#8211; 96 hours, in Google Play, the estimated period is 48 &#8211; 72 hours<\/li><li>User ratings<\/li><li>Number of comments<\/li><li>The dynamics of app deletions from the device<\/li><li>The number of app launches by users<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you know the app ranking factors, you can influence them to improve the position of the product in the store. This impact is called App Store Optimization or ASO.

With the help of testing, you solve the following tasks:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Introduce the audience to the product<\/li><li>Build loyalty<\/li><li>Get information about bugs and missing features of the application<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A pre-launch test gives you interested users and the opportunity to refine the product according to the audience&#8217;s opinion. How to attract volunteers? Here are some ideas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Promise active test participants free access to paid features.<\/li><li>Raffle valuable prizes between volunteers.<\/li><li>Announce the publication of the application and invite the potential audience to take part in the tests. The announcement can be published on the corporate website, in social networks, on specialized resources.<\/li><li>apply for testing in Betabound.com<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Second step \u2014 establish a social media presence<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Publish information about the application on the corporate website, the application website and in public on the social network. Send press releases to editors of relevant websites and blogs. For example, if you are promoting a gaming application, write about it in the editorial office of gaming portals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"814\" src=\"https:\/\/keyapp.top\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/\u0421\u043d\u0438\u043c\u043e\u043a-\u044d\u043a\u0440\u0430\u043d\u0430-2022-10-20-\u0432-13.39.50-1024x814.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5112\" srcset=\"https:\/\/keyapp.top\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/\u0421\u043d\u0438\u043c\u043e\u043a-\u044d\u043a\u0440\u0430\u043d\u0430-2022-10-20-\u0432-13.39.50-1024x814.png 1024w, https:\/\/keyapp.top\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/\u0421\u043d\u0438\u043c\u043e\u043a-\u044d\u043a\u0440\u0430\u043d\u0430-2022-10-20-\u0432-13.39.50-300x239.png 300w, https:\/\/keyapp.top\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/\u0421\u043d\u0438\u043c\u043e\u043a-\u044d\u043a\u0440\u0430\u043d\u0430-2022-10-20-\u0432-13.39.50-768x611.png 768w, https:\/\/keyapp.top\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/\u0421\u043d\u0438\u043c\u043e\u043a-\u044d\u043a\u0440\u0430\u043d\u0430-2022-10-20-\u0432-13.39.50-740x589.png 740w, https:\/\/keyapp.top\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/\u0421\u043d\u0438\u043c\u043e\u043a-\u044d\u043a\u0440\u0430\u043d\u0430-2022-10-20-\u0432-13.39.50.png 1524w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Third step \u2014 basic ASO<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should make your app visible in stores.

Therefore, embed offers to evaluate and comment on the product into the interface of the app. The following tips will help you get better grades:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Prompt the user to rate the application before shutting down or after several successful actions.<\/li><li>Don&#8217;t show a reminder every time you start the program.<\/li><li>Smartphone and tablet owners are always in a hurry. Therefore, use clear and short calls to action in reminders.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Seventh step \u2014 check app reputation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SERM (Search Engine Reputation Management) is a set of actions for improving the reputation of your app in the Store. You should pay attention to this because users will not want to install an app with low ratings and bad&nbsp; reviews history. In the app promotion niche, paid reviews give you two benefits that directly give you more installs from real users. You can expand keywords cloud because of manually writing texts for your application reviews with the words you will promote by installs. Secondly, You can add brand search requests to get into the index on Google Play (it doesn&#8217;t work for App Store). Because you can not use brand names in metadata. &nbsp;Manage app reputation are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Check negative reviews after updates and give feedback for it. After fixing all the bugs for a faster result, order <a href=\"https:\/\/keyapp.top\/buy-app-reviews\">app reviews with 3 weeks guarantee<\/a>\u00a0<\/li><li>check the overall rating of your app on a regular basis. Many aps (more than 70% so far) target 4+ rates.\u00a0<\/li><li>build brand trust. Make sure to explain what your app is about in your reviews so that users know what they are downloading. Convince them that your app provides what they were searching for so that they are sure of their decision.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eight step \u2014 promotion by Google Ads, Facebook ads and email marketing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Evaluate the effectiveness of advertising by the ratio of impressions or clicks and installs. This will help you determine the cost of user acquisition through advertising and evaluate the financial effectiveness of this promotion method.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have a subscriber base, tell it about the application after adding it to the stores. Dedicate a separate letter to the product: tell about its capabilities and add a link on Google Play and the App Store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here you can add promotions from bloggers and famous people. You can personally contact the owners of promoted accounts, offer them to test the application and share their impressions with subscribers. The difficulty of this method is choosing a blogger, your target audiences must match and you need to think about how you will track the number of attracted installs<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ninth step \u2014 add gamification<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gamification is one of the effective ways to increase audience engagement. The essence of this method is to add game elements to the solution of practical problems. Here are some gamification ideas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Assign users a rating depending on the number of completed transactions, the amount of purchases, etc.<\/li><li>Give bonuses for achievements.<\/li><li>Invite the audience to solve puzzles and quests.<\/li><li>Offer to take tests.<\/li><li>Display task progress bar.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"739\" height=\"499\" src=\"https:\/\/keyapp.top\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/duolingo.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5116\" srcset=\"https:\/\/keyapp.top\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/duolingo.png 739w, https:\/\/keyapp.top\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/duolingo-300x203.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 739px) 100vw, 739px\" \/><figcaption><br>Duolingo app example of a successful gamification tactic.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:60px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tenth step \u2014 Analyze it!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don&#8217;t forget about analytics systems, which help you determine the most effective promotion channels, as well as assess the needs of users and choose directions for the app promotion.
