How a Coupon App Boosted Organic Installs by 48% During Black Friday on Google Play

Challenges

During the pre-Black Friday period, the coupon app faced intense competition across the Google Play ecosystem. As searches for shopping-related keywords surged, visibility for core terms like “discounts,” “cashback,” and “Black Friday deals” became increasingly difficult to maintain. Competing apps with higher ad spend and brand recognition dominated top positions, leading to stagnation in organic installs despite a steady increase in overall market demand.

 

At the same time, the app’s store listing struggled to capture user intent in different English-speaking markets. Metadata lacked regional relevance, while outdated visuals failed to communicate time-sensitive offers. This combination of limited localization, weak seasonal positioning, and intense keyword saturation reduced conversion rates during the most crucial shopping season of the year.

 

App Store Optimization(ASO) Solutions

To regain visibility and conversion momentum ahead of the Black Friday season, the team implemented a comprehensive ASO strategy tailored to Android search dynamics. The goal was to expand keyword coverage, strengthen regional relevance, and improve visual appeal to match heightened seasonal user intent.

 

1. Keyword Strategy for Black Friday

The optimization began with an in-depth analysis of Play Store keyword performance to capture the growing demand for deal-related searches. The team focused on expanding metadata coverage with seasonal and intent-driven phrases that reflected user search behaviour during November.

 

  • Expanded metadata coverage to include seasonal long-tail and intent-driven keywords, such as “Black Friday cashback app”, “holiday shopping coupons”, and “Cyber Monday deals”*.
  • Conducted Google Play keyword performance tracking to identify phrases with rising search volume before and during the event.
  • Used hybrid keyword targeting (brand-related + seasonal) to improve ranking stability, e.g., “deal finder Black Friday discounts”*.

These efforts ensured that the app remained competitive across high-intent queries while maintaining a consistent ranking presence throughout the promotional period.

 


💡 Expert Tips: To uncover seasonal keyword opportunities more efficiently, ASOWorld's Free ASO Tools offer real-time keyword auto-suggestions and search volume insights directly from Google Play. Developers can use these tools to analyse trending queries, track keyword rankings, and identify untapped phrases ahead of major events like Black Friday — all without leaving the ASOWorld platform.

2.  Localization and Regional Optimization

Given that the app served multiple English-speaking markets, localization became a critical factor in improving organic conversion. The team refined both metadata and creatives to reflect regional language nuances and local retail preferences.

 

Localized store listing metadata and screenshots for English (US, UK, Canada) and Spanish-speaking markets.

 

Adapted region-specific language:

  • “Coupons” → “Vouchers” in the UK
  • “Cashback” → “Rebates” in Canada

 

Updated screenshots with familiar retail brands (e.g., Walmart for US, Tesco for UK) to build user trust and relevance.

 

This approach not only increased local search visibility but also enhanced user connection by aligning the app's presentation with regional shopping habits.

 

3. Visual and Creative Refresh

Seasonal optimization extended beyond keywords to the app’s visual identity. The design team refreshed Play Store assets to create stronger emotional engagement and urgency during the shopping period.

 

  • Introduced seasonal app icons and banners featuring Black Friday themes, countdown visuals, and bold discount highlights (“Up to 80% Off!”).
  • Added a short promo video on the Play Store showcasing live deal tracking, one-tap coupon use, and festive design cues.
  • Prioritised ASO asset consistency between Play Store listings and in-app visuals to strengthen recognition.

 

This visual coherence helped the app stand out in crowded search results and significantly improved click-through rates from impressions.

4. Store Listing Experiments & Conversion Testing

To validate the impact of these changes, continuous A/B testing was carried out through Google Play Experiments. The objective was to quantify how keyword, creative, and copy adjustments affected install conversion.

 

  • Ran Play Store Experiments on titles and short descriptions to measure impact on install conversion.

 

  • Revised short description from:

❌ “Find coupons and cashback offers easily.”

✅ “Save big this Black Friday – instant coupons & cashback on every purchase!”

 

  • A/B testing revealed a 17% increase in install conversion rate from optimised copy and seasonal visuals.

 

These experiments confirmed that timely, event-focused messaging — paired with improved creative consistency — directly translated into higher engagement and downloads.

 

Key Takeaways

  • Seasonal ASO campaigns play a vital role in competitive markets like Android, where organic rankings shift rapidly around major shopping events.

 

  • Regional language and retailer localization significantly improve conversion and retention across English-speaking markets.

 

  • Experimentation with titles, visuals, and seasonal messaging delivers measurable gains in both installs and engagement.

 

  • Aligning ASO strategy with promotional timing (e.g., updating creatives 2–3 weeks before Black Friday) ensures early visibility and sustained momentum.
