How to rank for “plant care”: no top app leads with it
At 10 characters it fits an app name with 20 to spare, yet the 3 names in the top ten that use it are much longer — brands with the keyword attached, which leaves the phrase competing from inside a longer string.
Apple builds phrases out of single words, so the 2 words here (“plant”, “care”) can sit in different fields and still match the whole term. Each counts once across the name, subtitle and keyword field, so repeating a word you already have buys nothing and takes space another keyword could use.
None of the ten opens its name with it — the 3 that spell it out put it later in the name.
Whether it is worth the slot depends on what else you could use it for. “plant care and watering” scores 31 on opportunity against this term's 15, at difficulty 11 rather than 67. All 21 related terms score higher. “plant care” names the category, but it is not the easiest way into it.
Choosing keywords you can rank for explains how the three numbers are worked out, and App Store metadata, field by field covers how to split a phrase this long across the three fields.
One similar keyword, then other niches
Every keyword with its own page is listed on the keyword index, each read the same way.
