App store optimization marketers, such as SEO marketers, work by optimizing their content so the search engine position it higher on the search engine results page, driving more traffic to this content. While making their content achieve the first position on targeted search terms can sum their objectives, it's not required to evaluate the optimization's success. ASO marketers try to achieve goals such as:

Being found more easily by users on the app stores, due to the fact that App Store Search is the No. 1 source for people to discover new applications
Rank higher compared to competitors
Rank higher for specific keywords
Rank higher in Google´s semantic search for applications
Create appealing graphics (icon, screenshots and promo video) to increase the chances of being downloaded
