Strategies for getting the link
- Review app store guidelines (Apple App Store, Google Play) for linking policy in developer profiles.
- Ensure your developer account information is complete and up-to-date with accurate website URLs.
- Use developer forums and official documentation to confirm proper procedures for editing developer profiles.
What to prepare beforehand
- Prepare your website’s homepage URL or dedicated app page URL to include in profile.
- Verify the URL uses HTTPS and is reachable with relevant content supporting the app.
- Ensure the website reflects the app brand for authenticity and user trust.
Things to watch for
App stores control link placement strictly; backlinks are mostly nofollow or restricted. This method supports legitimacy and user trust but is limited for SEO link equity.
