ASO Solutions To address these challenges, our team implemented the following App Store Optimization (ASO) solutions:
Thorough keyword research: We conducted in-depth keyword research to identify the most relevant and high-traffic keywords for the casino app. By optimizing the app's metadata, including title, description, and keyword field, we ensured it ranked higher in relevant searches on both Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
Engaging app icon and screenshots: We collaborated with the client's design team to create an eye-catching app icon that represented the app's unique features and captured users' attention. Additionally, we optimized the screenshots to showcase the app's gameplay, bonuses, and rewards, enticing users to download and engage with the app.
Localization and Thai language support: Recognizing the importance of catering to the local audience, we localized the app's metadata, screenshots, and description to the Thai language. This allowed us to target Thai-speaking users effectively and improve the app's discoverability within the local app stores.
Ratings and reviews management: We implemented strategies to encourage satisfied users to rate and review the app positively. By responding to user feedback promptly and addressing any concerns, we aimed to boost the app's overall rating, build trust among potential users, and increase conversion rates.
Creative ad formats: We collaborated with the client's creative team to develop captivating and visually appealing ad creatives. We focused on creating a sense of excitement, showcasing the app's features, and highlighting the potential rewards. These creatives were optimized for various ad formats, including display banners, video ads, and interactive ad units.
