>>> How to Conduct Keyword Research & Increase App Visibility at ASOWorld?
From our research, we selected a mix of short-tail and long-tail keywords:
Short-tail keywords were essential for basic visibility (e.g., "puzzle game", "brain teaser"), while long-tail keywords (e.g., "logic puzzle game free", "casual brain game") targeted specific user queries and intended to capture a more engaged audience.
We strategically placed these selected keywords across different parts of the app's metadata:
Title: Incorporated primary keywords directly into the title without making it feel stuffed or unnatural.
Subtitle: Used effectively to include secondary key phrases which complemented those in the title.
Description: Integrated both types of keywords throughout the description, especially in the first few lines, ensuring natural readability while maximizing SEO benefits.
We maintained an optimal keyword density of about 2-5% in the description text to avoid penalties from over-stuffing while ensuring enough frequency for algorithmic recognition.
The placement focused on higher relevance and prominence at the beginning sections of descriptions and subtitles.
