App Store Optimization

I help mobile apps get found by the people already searching for what they do. That means better keyword coverage, stronger metadata, and listings that convert browsers into installs.

App Store Optimization

8+ years doing this

I have been working on app store listings since 2016, across gaming, e-commerce, news, and education apps

Certified in both stores

Google Play Console and App Store Connect certified, so the work is grounded in how each store actually ranks apps

200+ apps worked on

Across categories ranging from casual games to B2B productivity tools, each with its own keyword landscape

I stay involved over time

ASO is not a one-time project. I review and adjust as your app grows, as the store algorithms shift, and as your competitors move

Work I have done for real apps

Megapolis Game ASO Success

Gaming / City Builder

Challenge

Social Quantum needed to increase organic installs for their Megapolis game in a competitive gaming market with declining organic visibility.

Solution

Implemented AI-driven keyword optimization, created localized preview videos, and A/B tested icons. Used AppFollow for semantic keyword research and added keywords to app title.

Adding keywords to our title was a bold call and I was skeptical. The 110% growth in organic installs made it clear it was the right move.

E-Commerce App 900% Growth

E-Commerce / Retail

Challenge

An e-shopping app struggled with organic visibility and needed to compete with established retail apps while maximizing ROI.

Solution

Combined ASO with Apple Search Ads for keyword insights, implemented custom product pages for different user segments, and optimized for voice search queries.

News & Media

Challenge

A news app needed rapid growth in a saturated market where 60% of installs come from store browsing rather than search.

Solution

Revamped title with keyword-rich description, implemented in-app events for breaking news, created Focus State optimizations, and added review prompts.

Common questions about ASO

Get answers to common questions

Custom Product Pages (CPPs) allow you to create up to 35 unique app store pages with different messaging and visuals. They provide an 8.6% conversion lift on average and are essential for targeting different user segments and campaigns.

AI affects ASO through semantic search understanding, keyword clustering, and personalized recommendations. Apps must optimize for AI assistants like ChatGPT that users consult before downloading apps.

In-app events showcase time-sensitive content in curated collections and special sections of the app store. They significantly increase exposure beyond traditional search and can drive 50-100% more downloads during event periods.

Voice search requires targeting conversational, natural language keywords. Focus on questions users might ask like "best fitness tracker app near me" and ensure your metadata matches voice query patterns.

Not necessarily, and I would be dishonest to promise that. The 110-900% figures in the case studies reflect apps that started with significant metadata problems and had real user demand that the store simply was not surfacing. If your app is already well-optimized or is in a very low-search-volume category, the gains will be more modest. I will tell you what is realistic for your specific situation before we start.
