Experience Sharing: How to Get recommendations from Apple App Store

Apple App Store does offer a great platform for many developers. However, it is not easy to stand out from more than 60 applications. If apps uploaded by developers can obtain Apple's recommendation space, they can be said to be of great benefit to application promotion. Recently, applications developed by a user named baei1024f have been repeatedly recommended by Apple, he summarized some experiences and shared them with you. The following content is shared:

As we all know, Apple's homepage recommendation is the best product promotion (high exposure + zero advertising fee). However, Apple's selection methods and rules are obscure. (This may be a factor that prevents human intervention from being added to recommendation results. For example, if Google discloses an algorithm, a search optimization service will emerge)

Recently, my app is lucky to have a new product recommendation on the home page of some countries (the tragedy is that the store in small countries is recommended, and the location is back ), considering the post-launch promotion work, we have summarized some of the recommended factors:

1. The product must be novel and of superior quality. This quality contains many details, such as the overall UI effect and Icon quality. You have never seen that the application icons on the recommendation list are rough. Many advertisement posts in the jar show that their art resources are programmer works, therefore, it is helpful to spend more energy on appearance.

2. products should be well known. It is observed that the applications on the list are much more likely to be recommended than those on the list. Therefore, the recommendation-free or promotion click can increase the chance of recommendation.

3. Cooperation with the media can increase product visibility. Why does the media select this application? The answer goes back to the first article <novel product, superior quality> or spend money directly.

So I guess Apple's recommendation editing may be like this: on the list every day or in various application Website forums, and then collect applications that meet the selection criteria, the update is reported to the editor-in-chief. The editor-in-chief will filter the updates.

Finally, I ended the rumor in the forum with my personal experience: "Classification recommendations are random ". When this application was launched, there were only two categories of recommendations, and it was no longer available in a few days. It was possible to cooperate with the media. After a certain degree of popularity, nine more were available at once, in this case, it is far-fetched to say random. Of course category recommendations do not really work, because they are not found in the Store on the device.

Hope to help you. I wish you all the best applications.
