You should use something that people search for. For example, if your magazine is dedicated to cars in Australia, try \u201cAustralian Street Cars Magazine\u201d.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-left: 35px;\">Tip: Treat the name of your digital magazine app as the strongest keyword phrase.<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Description<\/strong> \u2013 although this text field is relatively small, the limit for this magazine description is 4000 characters and you should use at least 1 thousand. This is the description of your magazine on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. It&#8217;s important to use related keywords and describe the content of the magazine.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-left: 35px;\">Tip: Readers make their buying decisions based on the first two sentences of this description. Make it clear and use call-to-action type sentences.<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Issue price<\/strong> \u2013 this is the price per one magazine issue. There are nearly 90 <a title=\"apple pricing tiers system\" href=\"https:\/\/www.presspadapp.com\/blog\/how-does-the-system-of-tiers-work-in-apple\/\">price levels<\/a>. Apple forces us to use them and we can\u2019t set our own prices. This is the end-user price, so Apple takes 30% off of that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Subscription (1 Year) Price<\/strong> \u2013 this is the price per one-year subscription of your magazine, no matter how often you publish. This is an auto-renewing subscription, meaning that after a year has passed, it will charge your reader again.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin-left: 35px;\">Tip: You should aim to sell subscriptions over single issues. It is good practice to discount the 1-year subscription a bit in relation to the single-issue price. For example, if you choose $1.99 per single issue and your magazine is published 12 times a year, consider making a 20% discount for the 1-year subscription.<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.presspadapp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/digital-publishing-software-presspad-app.png?ssl=1\" rel=\"lightbox\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-1570\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.presspadapp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/digital-publishing-software-presspad-app.png?resize=625%2C390&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Digital-publishing-software-presspad-app\" width=\"625\" height=\"390\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.presspadapp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/digital-publishing-software-presspad-app.png?resize=1024%2C640&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.presspadapp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/digital-publishing-software-presspad-app.png?resize=300%2C187&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.presspadapp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/digital-publishing-software-presspad-app.png?resize=624%2C390&amp;ssl=1 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.presspadapp.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/03\/digital-publishing-software-presspad-app.png?w=1266&amp;ssl=1 1266w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After you fill out everything, click the green button to &#8220;Save&#8221; and order your apps.
