Spotlight vs. Organic Visibility

Spotlight (Paid)

  • Cost: 20 credits
  • Duration: 7 days
  • Placement: Featured slots at top of Discover page
  • Visibility: Maximum
  • Effect on ranking: Purely additive, doesn't affect organic ranking

Spotlight Availability

Limited Slots

There are only 4 featured slots available at any time. If all slots are booked, you'll be added to a waitlist.

First Come, First Served

Spotlights are booked on a first-come, first-served basis. Book early in the sprint for best results.

Booking Multiple Spotlights

You can book multiple Spotlights for the same product. Each Spotlight costs 20 credits and lasts 7 days.

Example:

You book Spotlight #1 on Monday. It runs Monday-Sunday. You book Spotlight #2 on Friday. It runs Friday-Thursday. Your product is featured for 2 weeks straight.

Spotlight Strategy

When to Book

Best times:

  • Early in the sprint — More time to capitalize on visibility
  • After publishing — Boost visibility when you're new
  • After major update — Highlight new features
  • Before leaderboard deadline — Boost engagement before sprint ends

Avoid:

  • Late in the sprint — Less time to benefit
  • When you have no feedback — Spotlight drives reviews, but you need something to review
