I have released the first version of my app a couple of days ago, and it was available on app store search. I have rolled an update with some bug fixes a day later and the updated version got the status "ready to sale" and was available in app store updates within 6 hours. But the strange thing i have observed is that, the app was only available from the standard link and was not appearing on app store search. People were able to download the app using the link but it wasn't showing up on search (even after using the exact name). Any help would be highly valued and appreciated !
PS : when i rolled an update, i changed the keywords and category of the app to more relevant ones.
