What is ASO
FAQ
ASO (App Store Optimization) is the comprehensive optimization of a mobile application for app stores (App Store, Google Play, and others). It involves working with textual metadata, graphics, ratings, and reviews. Without ASO, your app risks getting lost in the stores, even if it's high-quality.
Optimization helps:
—
Increase the visibility in search for key queries.
—
Increase the conversion rate to installs.
—
protect the brand from competitors.
Example:Thanks to ASO optimization by IT-Agency, the "VkusVill Vacancies" app saw installs grow from 0 to 8,500 on Google Play and 9,000 on the App Store per month.
How do I know if my business needs an app?
Check:
—
Do your competitors have apps with active reviews?
—
How many users visit your website from mobile devices? (If it's over 50%, you definitely need an app).
—
Are there repeat purchases? (Apps boost loyalty).
Example: The brand RBT.RU was losing 500,000+ queries per month before launching their app.
How is ASO different from SEO?
SEO promotes websites in search engines (Google, Yandex), while ASO promotes apps in app stores.
The difference in queries:
—
In SEO, people search for answers to questions ("how to choose sneakers")
—
In ASO, they search for brands or thematic keywords ("Zara", "food delivery")
Simply copying an SEO strategy to ASO won't get your app into the top charts. Individual optimization tailored to store algorithms is required.
How long does it take for ASO to show results?
Minimum period: 1 month (for hypothesis testing). Optimal period: 3-6 months to solidify your positions. However, ASO requires continuous work: trends change, competitors update their metadata, and stores alter their algorithms.
What factors affect ranking in the App Store and Google Play?
—
Textual metadata: title, description, keywords (especially important for iOS).
—
Graphics: icon, screenshots, video (impact conversion rates).
—
Ratings and reviews: apps with a 4.5+ rating rank higher more often.
—
Updates: regular updates signal that the app is "alive" and maintained.
How much does ASO promotion cost?
The cost varies
—
The level of competition in your niche (e.g., ASO for food delivery is more expensive than for niche B2B services).
—
The scope of work (audit, copywriting, graphics, review management).
The minimum budget starts from 50,000 RUB/month.
Can you skip ASO if your app is already popular?
No. Even top apps (e.g., "Sberbank" or "Yandex.Food") constantly optimize their metadata.
Without ASO:
—
Competitors will hijack your search queries.
—
Conversion rates will drop due to outdated screenshots.
—
Ratings will decline without active review management.
Conclusion: ASO is not a one-time setup but part of a long-term marketing strategy.
