Don\u2019t know where to begin? Apple Search Ads might be a good place to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apple Search Ads is a platform that enables your app to be found on the App Store via the search functionality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is a form of App Store Optimization (ASO) that allows app creators to earn exposure through <a href=\"https:\/\/adstargets.com\/blog\/paid-ads-benefits-costs-types\/\" class=\"rank-math-link\">paid advertising<\/a> to <a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/adstargets.com\/blog\/identify-target-audiences-for-localization\/\">target audiences<\/a> searching for keywords related to your app, right there on the App Store.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apple Search Ads complement app store optimization as they both require an app\u2019s home page to be optimized to attract users to download the app.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are some great advantages to investing some of your marketing dollars into Apple Search Ads. One of those benefits is the <a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/adstargets.com\/blog\/how-improve-conversion-rate\/\">high conversion rate<\/a> that the platform can achieve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apple advertises a 50% conversion rate while 65% of the audience who use the search function download the app they are searching for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These are numbers that most advertisers daydream of as a 50% <a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/adstargets.com\/blog\/powerful-micro-conversion-strategies\/\">conversion rate<\/a> is very high. That means that on average, globally, 50% of people who search for an app install the app after they find the right app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This metric is vital because more downloads equal more users, which is the core factor in driving revenue from your app.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Currently, there are over 1 billion active iPhones in the world. Naturally, this makes Apple and its iOS platform highly lucrative for mobile app creators looking to expand their user base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the competition is ungiving and stiff. About 2.22 million mobile apps are available on Apple Search, each struggling for <a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/adstargets.com\/blog\/brand-advertising\/\">visibility<\/a> and, ultimately, downloads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This article captures so much more you will need to know about Apple Search Ads, read on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_85 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/adstargets.com\/blog\/apple-search-ads\/#What_are_Apple_Search_Ads\" >What are Apple Search Ads?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/adstargets.com\/blog\/apple-search-ads\/#Types_of_Apple_Search_Ads_Solutions\" >Types of Apple Search Ads Solutions<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/adstargets.com\/blog\/apple-search-ads\/#1_Basic_Ads_in_Apple_Search\" >#1.

A user performs an Apple search, and advertisers bid on keywords and win the auction, get the ad spot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, it offers app marketers an opportunity to contact the user at the exact moment when they are looking for a similar app and need it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ads in Apple Search are quite easy to set up. Depending on your budget and needs, you will have to first choose between the <strong>basic<\/strong> or the <strong>advanced<\/strong> options. Each has its pros and cons, so let\u2019s take a closer look at each below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Types_of_Apple_Search_Ads_Solutions\"><\/span>Types of Apple Search Ads Solutions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Basic_Ads_in_Apple_Search\"><\/span>#1. Basic Ads in Apple Search<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you decide to run a Basic campaign, Apple will automatically match your ad to the interested audience of your app, choosing the keywords and the audience for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All you have to do is fix a cost, and then Apple does the rest. But this option has serious risks: Apple may miss target keywords, so you can lose your bid and miss out on high-quality leads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Basic ads campaigns run directly through the app store and offer a simple route to reach your users. With Basic campaigns, Apple will do most of the work for you and will only require a few core elements to get started:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>#1. Campaign goal:<\/strong> This includes the countries and regions where you want to show your ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>#2. Campaign budget:<\/strong> You set your campaign budget which can run up to $10,000 per app. You also select the maximum amount you are willing to pay for an installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once these elements have been set, Apple will take care of the rest of the process<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Advantages\"><\/span>Advantages<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>#1.

With Advanced, you can choose audiences and keywords and you pay per tap on your ad rather than install.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Advanced is ideal for agencies or developers who want more control of their campaigns. There is also no max budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On this version, you also select your bid amount and have access to Apple search ads&#8217; recommended prices. You can also access a comprehensive report of all your key metrics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Advanced also allows you to manage application program interfaces (APIs). APIs are a technical development environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can build software to handle your campaigns with the API.

However, if you are utilizing both versions for the same application, be careful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All actions taken in your Apple Search Ads Advanced campaigns will not move to Apple Search Ads Basic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, it is meaningless to run both Basic and Advanced at once. There is also no base spend point for Apple Search Ads Advanced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This means that if you have the time to conduct a campaign, you should think about using Advanced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apple Search Ads Advanced has many benefits as you have seen above. You can experience a lot of benefits from choosing your personalized keywords.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Though it may appear like an intimidating task, it is well worth your time to adjust your strategy. Running ads on the wrong search terms or keywords won\u2019t get you downloads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, it will hurt your financial well and user acquisition (UA) strategy. Even if someone downloads from those search terms, they are likely to delete the app as it is not what they were looking for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apple Search Ads Advanced may sound intimidating at first. But Don\u2019t worry, I got you covered!&nbsp; There are a few steps you can take to help yourself out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, Apple Search Ads incorporates many resources on their website to assist you along as you are just starting, resources such as Advanced Help and Success Stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also offer Apple Search Ads Certification which you can take for free online to fast-track your Apple Search Ads Advanced competence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Apple_Search_Metrics_for_your_Ads\"><\/span>Apple Search Metrics for your Ads<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you know what Apple Search Ads are and the different options available to you, it\u2019s time to discuss the core metrics you should track in your ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Tap-Through-Rate\"><\/span>#1.

If your TTR is too low, think about reworking some elements of your listing. After all, if people are seeing your ad but aren\u2019t clicking it, then it is safe to say there\u2019s a problem.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, a good TTR is highly independent for each app category, so it might be worth testing multiple listing variations when you are just getting started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Average_CPT\"><\/span>#2.
