Example Prompts

Conduct comprehensive keyword research for our productivity app and create a prioritized list of 50 keywords with search volume, competition, and relevance scores.
App Store Optimization is an ongoing process, not a one-time task. Continuous monitoring, testing, and refinement are essential for maintaining and improving rankings and conversion rates.
Avoid keyword stuffing in metadata - both Apple and Google penalize this practice. Focus on natural language that appeals to both users and search algorithms.

​
Best Practices

Keyword Optimization

  1. Research Phase: Use multiple tools (App Annie, Sensor Tower, AppTweak) for comprehensive data
  2. Priority Scoring: Balance search volume, competition, and relevance

  3. Text Overlays: Use clear, benefit-focused copy on screenshots
  4. Localization: Adapt visuals for cultural preferences

​
