App Search Optimisation - Downloads information
-
Hi
Where do you get accurate app download information from (I cant find in iTunes) ?
Cheers
Dan

Thanks John
I do use SensorTower, really looking for a service that combines all, a hybrid of appfigures and sensortower is desired
Will check Appcodes when get a chance
Thanks for all your comments

That's the one thing Appfigures is still missing. When I asked their support about that, they said they're working on it. Appcodes does a reasonable job at tracking that, and if you ever want to quickly see the keywords an app is using, you can use Sensortower for that. I don't subscribe to either of those sites ongoing.

Thanks for confirming that John !
PS - App Figures, which is great btw (thanks for the heads up), doesnt offer keyword rank reports as far as i can see (only category)
-
Yup! It'll all be in iTunes Connect, which is the site in which your developers will be uploading your app to Apple. There are different access levels... I don't recall what they are, but I believe there is a marketing one that should give you access to Sales and Trends report.

ok great many thanks John, sorry but just to confirm, thats in iTunes directly we should be able to get all that data !!
-
Our app is free (with no in-app purchases), so it just shows downloads in that report. It looks like the report can toggle between downloads, updates, and in-app purchases, so you should be able to see both here with no issues.
Have a great weekend yourself!

Thats great information thanks John !
Our app is free (but with in app purchases), will iTunes data (sales & trends or other section) tell us the actual number of downloads (as opposed to sales) ?
Thanks for the heads up re Appfigures too
Have a great weekend !
All Best

The data in the Sales and Trends report in iTunes Connect should be considered the truth. If you don't see that report, you should talk to whomever is your admin in iTunes Connect to give you the appropriate access.
I use a site I really like called Appfigures.com that links up to my iTunes Connect to track rankings over time, and get a better picture of downloads by country over time. They also pull data on reviews, where you're being featured, and general rankings if you want to see how other apps rank compared to yours. They have a free trial if you want to try it out, and it's like $5/mo for one app after that, so it won't break the bank.

Is the search volume insight in Bing more accurate as it is in Google?
Does anybody know if Search volume insight in Bing is more accurate than it is in Google?
SERP Trends | | Seeders
Moz is showing Search Volume insight in Bing now (not sure about the reason, probably Moz has no access to Google? Or is it because it is more accurate?)
For some words I have my doubts about the Google Keyword Tool. I don't know about Bing.
For the first time I compare two words on Bing with Google I found out the ratio in Bing is very different compared with Google. Example:
When you check out the words: espressomachine and koffiemachine
**Google, local search in the Netherlands: **
espressomachine: 6600
koffiemachine: 8100
Bing, local search in the Netherlands:
espressomachine: 549
koffiemachine: 361 So..., are Bing users typical kind of users who uses other search phrases?
Or... is one of these two more accurate? Does anybody know?0 -
Local Search Not Responding To Optimisation
Hi guys / gals. This is quite rare for me because I normally can put together a good strategy based on the best articles / content etc I have read. However this time I am in a bit of a situation where I dont seem to be able to get results for my Google Local Listings or Google Plus Places page. The listing is good, has a description, images, url, address etc. The weakness was a lack of citations, so I got the White Spark Tool and went to work. I have probably built about 20 citations - all pretty good sites, nothing dodgy. The issue is my listing has gone the wrong way i.e. lost positions. What am I doing wrong here. Is 20 citations just not enough? Is there another ranking factor I am neglecting? I have digested this : http://www.davidmihm.com/local-search-ranking-factors.shtml Please advise peeps 🙂

How to optimize a site for search engines in India
I am working on a website that is a manufacturing company selling items to companies in the United States, India and some other countries. I already know what keywords I would target in the US but what about India? In the US we optimize our keywords for the Google search engine but in India what search engine is the biggest. I know http://www.google.co.in/ exists but is that the most powerful (most users) for India? Is there a certain language I do research for keywords or should I stick to English keywords? Also if I rank for a national keyword (no location in the phrase) well in the US should it be similar for India?

Searching google without bias
i read a tip once and can't find the reference to that tip. It had to do with searching google without including the history of your searches to bias the result. The user was suppose to put a code at the end of the URL, like &pw or something like that. Anyone hear of this?
