Returns analytics data for different keywords that AppTweak gathers or estimates.
Keyword metrics are numerical properties that AppTweak has been able to gather or estimate about keywords. Metrics are exposed through two endpoints:
- Keyword Metrics - Current returns the latest - most recent - data available
This endpoint returns the data for today. If AppTweak hasn't stored the data, the data will be fetched live on the store.
- Keyword Metrics - History returns the historical daily values over a given period of time.
This endpoint returns the data from AppTweak's databases. If the data is not available, you'll get a "null" response and you won't get charged credits for the datapoints.
See below for a list of available metrics.
| Metric name | Description | Origin | Historical Data Available? |
|---|---|---|---|
| volume | A score between 5 and 100 that shows how popular a keyword is in terms of searches. The higher the number, the more popular the keyword is. | Apple Search Popularity Score | β |
| difficulty | A score between 1 and 100 that shows the level of competition of a keyword. The higher the number, the higher the competition. A high Difficulty score indicates that powerful apps rank in the top 10 search results, making it more difficult to rank high for the keyword. | AppTweak-defined KPI | β |
| brand | An object containing an app id, app title, and app icon if a keyword is branded. An empty object means that the keyword is considered generic. | AppTweak estimation | β |
| results | On iOS, this represents the total number of apps considered by Apple before applying their sorting algorithm. A bigger number means that more apps "match" the keyword. On Android, this is the total number of apps that AppTweak was able to fetch when making the search for a keyword. | Gathered directly from the app store pages | β |
