Couple of points:

1) Are you just providing keyword tracking? While this is useful in the SEO-world, I'm not sure how useful this is in the app store. Mostly because there is very few actions they can take if they did drop their rankings. Do you provide actionable advice on getting higher rankings rather than objective advice like "You rank #5 for cars in the App Store"?

2) If your product isn't popular enough, you should consider pairing it with consulting service as well. Provide consulting for those that want to rank high on the App Store. That is.. IF you have the expertise in that arena.

3) SearchRank.is -> not a big deal for now, but you might want to consider rebranding it so that it caters more to App Store Optimization rather than SEO.

Overall, I'm probably in your target audience. But I don't care for knowing how I rank for keywords in the App Store. I want actionable advice. Tell me HOW to rank high for a keyword. Rather than a ranking tool, give me a GRADING tool. What changes should I make to my title? What keywords to add to my description? Is there a correlation between # of reviews and rank? keywords in those reviews vs rank?
