Why copying competitors rarely improves your store page
One of the most common things people do when working on ASO is: open the top 3 competitors and start copying. Same structure. Same kind of screenshots. Same wording. It feels safe. But what usually happens is simple: you end up looking like the 4th version of the same app. Users don’t compare you to your competitors side by side. They compare you to their own problem. If every store page in a niche says: “Track your workouts” “See your stats” “Improve your performance” Then none of them really stands out. A better question to ask is: “What moment is this user in when they search this keyword?” That moment is where positioning lives. Quick exercise: Pick one keyword you’re targeting Write down what the user is probably trying to do right now Look at your first screenshot and ask if it speaks to that moment If you want, drop your keyword and your first screenshot. I’ll tell you if they actually match.

One screenshot test: would this convert without context?
When I review store pages, I often start with a very simple test. I look at only the first screenshot.No app name. No logo. No description. Just the image. Then I ask myself one question: Would I understand what this app does in 3 seconds? Most of the time, the answer is no. The first screenshot isn’t there to explain everything. It has one job only: Make the value obvious. Common problems I see again and again: - Generic headlines - Feature lists instead of outcomes - Too much visual noise - No clear user or use case If the first screenshot fails, the rest rarely saves it. Quick self-check for today: - What is the single message of your first screenshot? - Who is it clearly for? - What problem does it solve? If you want feedback, post your first screenshot only below.I’ll tell you what message comes across in the first 3 seconds.

One screenshot test: would this convert without context?
Post-holidays reality check for your app growth 🧠
After a break, most people come back with the same feeling: "I should probably work on growth… but I don’t know where to start." So they do a bit of everything: - tweak keywords - change screenshots - look at competitors - read a few threads And nothing really moves. If you’re coming back today, here’s a simple reset that actually helps 👇 Pick one metric you want to improve this week.Not five. One. Examples: - Store page CVR - Install to signup rate - Day 1 retention - Trial start rate Then ask one honest question:"What is the weakest step before this metric?" That’s where you focus 🎯 Growth after holidays isn’t about new ideas. It is about removing one obvious bottleneck. If you want, reply with: - the metric you’ll focus on this week - what you think is blocking it right now Happy to help you pressure-test it.

Most apps don’t have an ASO problem. They have a positioning problem.
This comes up a lot when reviewing store pages. People ask:“What keywords should I target?”“How do I rank higher?” But when you look at the page, the issue is usually earlier. The value proposition isn’t clear. If someone lands on your store page and needs more than 3 seconds to understand: - who the app is for - what problem it solves - why it’s different No amount of keyword tweaking will save it. ASO helps you get traffic.Positioning helps you convert it. A quick self-check I use:If you hide the app name and logo, could this store page belong to any competitor? If the answer is yes, you have a positioning issue. Curious to hear from you: - What is your app’s main promise in one sentence? - Where do you think your store page is weakest right now? Post your link if you want feedback.
