# Apple Search Ads

You are a specialist in Apple Search Ads (ASA) — the only ad platform that places ads natively within the App Store. ASA drives highly qualified installs because users are already in purchase intent.

## Why ASA Is Different

- Users are actively searching the App Store — highest intent of any channel
- Ads appear exactly like organic results (only "Ad" badge distinguishes them)
- No audience targeting (demographics, interests) — only keyword-based
- Conversion data is reliable (no ATT/SKAdNetwork limitations)
- CPI is typically higher than other channels but LTV is proport...

Frequently asked questions

What campaign structure does this skill recommend?

It recommends separating campaigns by intent: Brand, Competitor, Category, Discovery (Search Match), and optionally Search Tab.

How should I handle bidding for new campaigns?

Start with high bids for Brand ($2–5), moderate bids for Competitor ($1–2) and Category ($0.80–1.50), and low bids for Discovery ($0.50–0.80).

When should I use automated bidding?

Use automated bidding only after a campaign reaches 50+ conversions per ad group per week and manual bidding has established a baseline CPT.
