Be Visible To
On-the-Go Consumers
How the New App Store Search Box helps you compete in an increasingly mobile market.
By Zvika Ashkenazi, CEO MobileAppLoader.com
Current research shows that people are spending more time on their Smart Phones than on computers. They are becoming increasingly mobile and need ever-faster access to information. That’s why, when the iPhone’s App Store was launched, people began using it to search for businesses and services.
Conclusion: If a business does not have an App in the App Store, consumers won’t find it. They might, however, find Apps of the competitors.
Before I illustrate this point with a montage of “screen grabs,” I should mention that businesses spend thousands of dollars on Search Engine Optimization (SEO), purporting to make them more visible on the Internet. It should, therefore, be a no-brainer to invest $10-$15 in native mobile Apps, guaranteeing a presence in the App Store.
A picture is worth a thousand words. The following montage will visually prove my point:
- Open the App Store on your iPhone or Android device.
- Type these keywords into the App Store search box: Toyota San Jose
- Observe what comes up.
- Now search for your type of business in your specific locale. Are you there? Are your competitors listed?• For additional examples of Apps – of car dealerships, realtors, salons, and towing services – scroll down.
