Increase the number of users that try your game!

Hi,

since we are all trying to make money with apps, one of the ways to stand out amongst the crowd is to have a standout icon. Your icon is the first thing users see when browsing the app store so it has to make a good first impression or else you lose sales! Having a great app is not longer enough because you have to get users to actually download and try your app! And to get that to happen, the first impression (your app icon in the Android Market) is crucial!

That’s a good tip.

Your Icon should look professional and shows what your app is acutally doing.

Sadly, there are many apps out there which are totally crap but comes with a high gloss icon … :slight_smile:

And some great apps with crappy icons, but still have high numbers of download.

every little bit counts, especially the first impression!

“Your Icon should look professional and shows what your app is actually doing.” - I think that’s true, to have a good reputation for attracting people to your game you need to create professional Icon - that is very important.

Icon is really important. But you should also optimize the following aspects to increase your app downloads:

Optimizing your app title - An app with a good title will easily be downloaded by the audience. You should Keep your app title short and sweet, easy to spell, and memorable.

Optimizing screenshots - Your app screenshots should be descriptive and in high-quality.Screenshots related to your app that highlight your most popular and needed features will immediately encourage downloads.

Optimizing vedio - A video can showcase much more than textual information. Make it creative, funny, thought-provoking.

Optimizing description - Focus on the first 3 lines description. When users view the application details page, most people can only see the top two or three lines of description. Therefore, the first 3 lines description should reflect the target users’ needs, and fully explain the contents of the product characteristics. It aims at seizing the attention of users and attracting them to learn more about the app information or downloading directly.

Opitmizing app rating - Only 15% users would like to download those apps with 2 ratings, and 50% users would like to download those 3 rating apps. However, 94% users would like to download those 4-5 rating apps. You can invite users to rate your app, or [b]get app ratings[/b]from third parties, which is much more convinient.

Optimizing app reviews - Data shows that about 95% users will take the app reviews as one of the most important reference factors to judge the app, 88% users trust reviews as much as personal recommendations, and most people prefer to download an app which has much more positive reviews.Getting app reviewsfrom third party is also a good choice.

Hope these methods are useful to you.
