Custom Product Pages Generator

Generate metadata templates for Custom Product Pages (CPPs) — targeted App Store product page variants optimized for specific audiences, ad campaigns, or traffic sources.

When This Skill Activates

Use this skill when the user:

• Asks to create "custom product pages" or "targeted App Store pages"
• Mentions "different App Store pages for different audiences"
• Wants to create pages for specific ad campaigns (Apple Search Ads, social media)
• Asks about A/B testing product page messaging
• Has multiple user personas and wants tailored messaging

Minimum Eligibility

CPPs only make sense when you have enough traffic to meaningfully split across pages.

| Monthly Impressions | Recommendation | |--------------------|----| | Under 2,000 | Don't create CPPs. Focus on optimizing your single default page. You won't have enough traffic per page to know if it's working. | | 2,000-10,000 | Create 1 CPP max for your most distinct audience segment or highest-spend ad campaign. Monitor for 4+ weeks. | | 10,000-50,000 | Create 2-3 CPPs. Enough traffic to compare performance across pages. | | 50,000+ | Full CPP strategy. Multiple pages per segment, ad campaign-specific pages, seasonal variants. |

Exception: If you're running paid Apple Search Ads campaigns, CPPs are valuable even at lower organic volume because ad traffic is directed specifically to your CPP — you're not splitting organic impressions.

How Custom Product Pages Work

• You can create up to 35 custom product pages per app
• Each page gets a unique URL you can share or use in ad campaigns
• You can customize: screenshots, app previews, and promotional text
• The app icon, name, subtitle, and description remain the same across all pages
• Each page can be localized independently
• Available on iOS 15+ and macOS 12+

CPP vs Product Page Optimization (PPO)

| Feature | Custom Product Pages | Product Page Optimization | |---------|---------------------|--------------------------| | Purpose | Targeted pages for specific audiences | A/B test default page | | Count | Up to 35 pages | Up to 3 treatments | | Elements | Screenshots, previews, promo text | Icon, screenshots, previews | | URL | Unique URL per page | Same URL, random distribution | | Use with ads | Yes (assign to ad groups) | No |

Configuration Questions

Ask user via AskUserQuestion:

1. How many custom pages?

   • 1 page (single audience variant)
   • 2-3 pages (A/B campaign testing)
   • 4+ pages (multi-audience strategy)

2. What are your distinct audiences?

   • Different user roles (e.g., students vs. professionals)
   • Different use cases (e.g., personal vs. business)
   • Different traffic sources (e.g., Instagram vs. Google)
   • Different geographies/languages

3. What will you customize?

   • Screenshots only
   • Screenshots + app previews
   • Screenshots + promotional text
   • All three

4. Traffic sources for each page?

   • Apple Search Ads
   • Social media (Instagram, TikTok, etc.)
   • Website/blog
   • Email campaigns
   • Influencer partnerships
   • Organic/direct link

Generation Process

Step 1: Audience Analysis

For each audience segment:

• Define the primary value proposition
• Identify pain points this audience has
• Determine which features matter most
• Choose the emotional angle (productivity, creativity, fun, savings)

Step 2: Generate Page Metadata

For each custom page:

1. Page name (internal reference)
2. Promotional text (170 characters, customizable per page)
3. Screenshot strategy (which features to highlight, in what order)
4. App preview strategy (optional, what to show in video)
5. URL (generated by App Store Connect, but plan the naming)

Step 3: Screenshot Sequencing

Design the screenshot order for each page to match the audience's priorities:

• Screenshot 1: The hook — the single most compelling feature for this audience
• Screenshot 2-3: Core value proof — features that solve their specific problem
• Screenshot 4-5: Depth and trust — breadth of features, social proof

Step 4: Produce Strategy Document
