So I have esim app that was really headache to take it this place. Development was the easiest part, business communications, unlimited mails, collaborations are really making upset since I am both working full time job, studying Master degree and also distributing 2 apps to my app store.

App link : https://apps.apple.com/us/app/voyasim-esim-data-internet/id6752798400

Website : voyasim.io

The 6 month Growth is like that:

October (0$) : Released first version, ı dont know anything about app store optimization, screenshots or metrics that are shown to me dashboard. apps ui was trash just the system was working perfectly, you download app signup, press one button buy esim and activate esim with one button or qr reading.

November(5$) : Learned what is aso , priority of app screenshots, what are keywords, how to target customers. Just learned :D İt is not same thing in practice. Marketplace is really really competitive there are tons of trustworthy brandings that even my app is not visible in a lot of perfect keys at even 5th pages. Got my first customer who bought esim 4 times. It was the best feeling ı got that seeing ı really provided internet one traveller and ı really exist.

December(3$): Burnout period, doing things but not gaining even 3 downloads a day. End of the year gave me different problems in work and study sessions, I never thought to leave , because ı had really very high efforts , so with just motivation of 1 users 3 dollar buy, I said myself that I have to really go into it , change all keywords to holiday christmas theme , change screenshots to Christmas themed screenshots and go on! Result: Screenshots worked but keywords like holiday esim showed me my position wasnt the worst , ı ve gone deep bottom points in searchs.

January(85$): Started from zero point, developed website, bought some aso tools (dont ask me because ı think ı am still not good aso researcher) , and what ı was waiting on december , happened january. I got up and saw really good orders like 10$ 15$ and this really felt like wow ı am doing something. I started to push through new tests new researches and this was the perfect result ı ve gotten.

February(53$) - New year era finished, ı think in this period people dont prefer to travel too much, plus this war themes that made visitors to travel less, but still project was making money so ı tried different advertisements on social media to gain audience.

March (201$) - Boom, weather conditions became good to travel, some trusts gained (still in weak points , need to compete with big whales), and this was the month that is valuable than other 5 month, I didnt still make profit since ı made advertisements and other service payments. But from today, I believe that ı will start to make small moneys. Still looking through to see if march is chance or there is some correlation between this high demand and march.

April (100$) till now - still waiting to see finish update.

The lesson ı learned is this: Do not lie to your customers, dont make them overpay, and make your service work like clock accuracy, then user will find you.
