ACTIVE BODIES ACTIVE MINDS

Around a third of children aged 2 to 15 in the UK are overweight or obese.

Children are becoming obese at an earlier age and staying obese for longer.

This is a national epidemic and we believe that Socker Stars has the ability to educate young audiences about the positive effects that a balanced diet can have on performance and mental wellbeing.

This is achieved through our unique ‘Tamagotchi’ inspired mechanic that encourages gamers to return to the app on a daily basis in order to nurture their character through healthy food choices and training/exercise sessions, all designed to increase their ability and performance in the game itself.

Socker Stars will also sync with a range of popular Smart watches in order to encourage users to get active in the real world in exchange for extra in-game bonus points and goodies!

Whether that is simply doing 10 quick star jumps or enjoying a brisk walk to school!

Redbox Mobile PLC was in February 2013 and has become the leading App Store Optimization (ASO) Company.

This new and developing industry has similar challenges to the ones that faced website owners when the Google Search Engine began to dominate the discovery of websites.

This led to a new industry that focused purely on Search Engine Optimisation (SEO). For an App, the solution is referred to as App Store Optimization, ASO is the service that Redbox Mobile delivers.

What is ASO?

App Store Optimisation (ASO) is the process of improving the discoverability of your app in the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store.

By increasing the visibility of your app in the app stores, you are driving traffic to your app page and encouraging users to download your app.

The assessment of an ASO campaign extends beyond the ranking of your app by search term; ASO for apps can be shown to also deliver increases in downloads, usage, revenue and ultimately, profit.

The increased visibility is achieved through optimising your app to rank high in an app store’s search results for relevant searches.

Techniques of ASO for apps focus on your app’s metadata, graphics and methods of improving your ratings and reviews.

How does ASO work?

In both the Google Play Store and Apple App Store, algorithms are used to determine the order apps rank in the search results.

The algorithms calculate the ranking order by considering a variety of user engagement and feedback factors, which include the number of: page views, downloads, uninstalls, ratings and reviews. The algorithm also ranks the apps in the search results based on the relevancy of the app for the user‘s search.

The algorithms use metadata as a proxy of relevancy; keywords in the title, descriptions and keywords field are analysed and relevancy is calculated.

The process of ASO for apps specifically targets the ranking factors used by the app stores‘ algorithms. For example, keyword optimisation involves researching the app, the app genre, and keywords the app currently ranks for.

However, keyword optimisation is only one aspect of ASO for apps; graphics and the way you utilise and gather your ratings and reviews are also optimised to improve the proportion of page views that turn into downloads.
