FAQ

How can I grow my Shopify app faster?

For a running app, the fastest growth usually comes from focused channels: optimize Shopify Ads and App Store SEO and AEO, then open Google Ads and Meta Ads. Funnel and pricing optimization release more growth from the traffic you already have when the analysis shows them as the block.

What is the growth delta?

The gap between where your app is and where it could be: keywords it could reach the top 10 for, installs it is missing, the same installs for less, channels it has not opened, and merchants lost in the funnel or to pricing.

My Shopify app stopped growing. What should I check first?

Six things, in this order: which keywords and sources pay, whether the gap is traffic or conversion, the listing copy, the app store page, the Shopify Ads account, then Google Ads.

Is my Shopify app growing fast enough?

Across 400+ active Shopify apps (2026 benchmarks), average MRR growth is 2.96% a month and the top quartile 5.75% a month. Compare your app with the top quartile, and with its own competitive space.

Do we need a paid growth analysis first?

No. We find the delta on a free call, from your ranks, installs, cost per install, funnel and pricing. Then you pick what to work on, a la carte.

What does it cost?

Each lever has its own price: App Store SEO and AEO $2K one-time, Shopify Ads $1K a month, Google Ads $1K a month, Meta Ads $1K a month, plus media. Funnel and pricing are scoped per app.
