Easier alternatives: “podcasts tracker” is 43 points easier
People searching these want the same kind of app. The best of them is “podcasts tracker”: opportunity 31, and 43 points easier to rank for than the term itself.
14 days of App Store readings: nothing moved
Median ratings of the ten apps ranking for it. The line is scaled to its own range, so go by the figures: +0.2% over 14 days is flat, so nobody is pulling away.
Read from the App Store once a day and kept, not modelled. The popularity score above is our estimate of demand; this is the store's own answer, unedited.
How to rank for “podcasts”: no top app leads with it
At 8 characters, the phrase leaves 22 of Apple's 30 for your brand. The shortest name in the top ten that uses it — “Apple Podcasts”, 14 characters — puts the brand first and the keyword after it.
It is a single word, so the choice is simple: Apple counts it once across the name, subtitle and keyword field. Put it in the strongest field you can spare, because saying it twice adds nothing.
None of the ten opens its name with it — the 4 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. “podcasts tracker” scores 31 on opportunity against this term's 13, at difficulty 35 rather than 78. 10 of the 11 related terms score higher; the other 1 score lower.
Choosing keywords you can rank for explains how the three numbers are worked out, and App Store metadata, field by field covers which field a single word is worth.
