SEO, GEO & ASO · ASO
App Store Optimisation (ASO) is the work of improving how your app ranks in App Store and Google Play search, and how many store visitors go on to install it. We improve both halves: being found for the right searches, and convincing people once they land on your listing. The two stores are treated as the different ecosystems they are, each with its own rules and ranking signals.
ASO
Research into the terms your users search, their competitiveness and their relevance to your app. iOS and Google Play are researched separately, and where you run Apple Search Ads we use its search term data to see which keywords actually convert.
App name, subtitle, keyword field and descriptions written to rank and to convert. Every character is used deliberately.
Icons, screenshots and preview videos designed to communicate value at a glance. Built around what users see in search results, not just on the product page.
A/B tests through Apple's product page optimisation and Google Play's store listing experiments, plus Custom Product Pages and custom store listings for key audiences. Decisions are based on install data rather than opinion.
Well-timed in-app review prompts and a consistent response process for store reviews. Ratings affect both visibility and conversion.
Metadata and creative adapted for each priority market and language. Built on local search behaviour rather than direct translation.
We review your listings, keyword rankings, conversion rates and competitors on both stores.
We build a keyword and messaging strategy for each store and each priority market.
We update metadata and creative, then run structured experiments to validate every change.
We track rankings, conversion and installs after each release and keep refining.
ASO ranks your app inside the App Store and Google Play, while SEO ranks your website in search engines such as Google. The stores use their own signals: the app name, subtitle and keyword field on iOS, plus installs, ratings and how many visitors go on to download. Both start with keyword research, but the metadata limits, testing tools and ranking factors are very different.
On the App Store, the app name, subtitle and hidden 100-character keyword field are indexed; the long description is not. Google Play indexes the title, short description and full description, so keyword use in body copy matters there. Ratings, download momentum and conversion rate influence both stores, which is why metadata and creative work best together.
Ask at the right moment, using Apple's and Google's official in-app review prompts just after a user has had a good experience. Both stores limit how often the prompt can appear, so timing matters more than frequency. Replying to reviews, fixing the issues people raise and telling users when a problem is solved all help lift your rating over time.
Yes, if you have users or ambitions in other markets, because each store country is indexed and ranked separately. Localised metadata lets you rank for the words people actually use there, and adapted screenshots tend to convert better than generic ones. On iOS, some countries index more than one language, which gives you extra keyword space when it is planned properly.
Review them with each app release, or at least every one to two months. On the App Store most metadata changes go live with a new app version, while Google Play listing changes can be published at any time. Change one element at a time where you can, so you know what actually moved rankings and installs.
