2. Use Informative Titles and Descriptions

 

Make sure your game’s title and description reflect the game’s content and educational value. Use relevant keywords that your target audience will be looking for. You can also use the # in front of keywords, to make sure your game appears in searches for those words (for example: #Grammar).

 

Remember: The title you give your game will be the one that appears in Google searches as well.
