Ranking Android App (Kids Game)

I just purchased a childrens game app intended for the play store. This is my first app. Going to be linking it to admob shortly, but just wondering if anyone had any ranking tips? Is there any suppliers that sell installs and reviews? Any other tips for gaining organic installs and reviews? Appreciate any tips or advice. Thanks.

Why?

Anyone ever successfully ranked a game here?

interested on this too, following ...

Fake installs or reviews will probably hurt your app, google is good at detecting these bots now, unless you can find some high quality reviews.

Try to have friends or family review your game with keywords that you want to rank for 'awesome 3d game love it'. You can also leave reviews on your own app, with each gmail account you own, so far google hasn't removed any of mine.

So far i've noticed two ways to increase downloads. Keywords thats in your title, description, and long description. You can use Appannie or Appbrain and sign up for a free account and it will show you usually after a couple of weeks what keywords your ranking for. After this, target these words based ok difficulty.

The second is to get a lot of downloads fast and to translate your app in all the languages. You'll start to rank in certain categories in the app store "new app" "new arcade". As long as your users are coming back and your installs is getting higher your ranking will also climb.

I made the mistake of climbing but spending all my budget and having all my market rankings crash because the app wasnt ready and I didnt have funds to get downloads, so i went from 1,000 downloads a day to 0 and fell off all countries rankings quick.

if you can try to program local notifications so that the users come back every day for a reward this will help user retention and help yoir rankings also. Im no expert but ive learned a lot this last year testing different methods in the app store.

Guys anyone know good pay per app download networks or apps to install? i have big instagram and i want to monetize it

So review purchase is no go ?

It works, just need the right supplier, and reviews need to be spread out..

DO NOT buy installs or reviews from anyone, because that will only hurt your rankings and revenue.

3 of my apps rank first for direct keywords and get 300-500 installs per day. To achieve this, I follow this rules:

Firstly, app name (package name too) has to include exact keyword that you're targeting.

Secondly, description should be long and meaningful, with keywords in sentences. Also try to make it as catching as you can and add a call to action (example: PLAY NOW and enjoy this crazy game, which will keep you wondering for hours!).

Add atleast 5 screenshots (+for tablet, TV and wearables if suitable), also make sure to add a promotional video ($5 on Fiverr).

Depending on your budget, you should use AdWords campaigns to advertise the game for the first few weeks. Yes, AdWords, because they help with ranking more than other advertising companies.

After that, you should see a big increasement in ranking and thus downloads + revenue. If you don't get high rankings (at least top 10, depending on keywords), you're doing something wrong or your app is bad.

If you'll have any questions, feel free to PM me.

Hi

i played with some android app before...in general to acheive great ranking in Play store you need App installs + Positive reviews in a short period of time...and you app or game will recieve massive ranking ...

-and since it's your first app, you need to optimize it first with some ASO ...like:

• choose the proper keywords for your game,
  
• right title countainig keywords
  
• long description
• sccreenshot, +8 minimum (name the images with your keywords)
  
• a promotion video
  
• a simple landing page for your app

-next step will be helping your app with some installs, with some keyword installs will be better and this should be done in next day after your app is live in play store...but do not go big on this just a small volume will be enough, then reviews, i advice to not buy them, since google remove them easily...in the past it was ok, but now things has changed...


in those steps above you will receive some installs, gain some new users in your game, and make some money,

-the final step will be ...Fb Ads,

Good luck OP

Thanks for the tips!

Nothing is free. You will have to buy reviews. And I'm the one you're looking for
