Apple Search Ads

Apple's Search Ads is way of giving app publishers paid access to the top spot in app store search results. The ad appears on the top/top left on the App Store search result pages with a blue-tinted background. Apple's iTunes app store search advertising is one of the most overlooked user acquisition channels for iOS apps.
