ITunes Store: optimizing the search for keywords in the application. Are rows intellectually indexed?

Question

Does anyone know how app keywords are indexed by search queries in the iTunes store? Keyword characters allowed in iTunes Connect are limited, so listing combinations of search terms becomes significantly larger. Say my application is “foo bar” and “goo bar”, but some people can usually look for “foobar” or “bar foo”. Is it enough to enter:

foo, bar, goo

and we hope that iTunes will execute the corresponding substring or cover all my databases if I enter:

foo bar, goo bar, foo, goo, bar, foobar, goobar, bar foo, bar goo, barfoo, bargoo

Can anyone shed some light on how smart search strings match keywords?

Answer 1

Well, you must include "foo", "bar", "goo" and "foobar", since "foo" and "bar" are different from "foobar". I just remember being told that iTunes uses the old keyword system. Include only one word in your keywords, not "foo bar" and "goo bar", but "foo", "bar" and "goo". Has the meaning? Hope I helped. :)
