What are the foundational steps to define a strong brand positioning for an OTT platform?
To establish strong brand positioning, start by identifying your niche audience or region, define your unique selling proposition (USP) such as exclusive content or pricing, craft consistent messaging across all touch points, and design a compelling visual identity (logo, color palette, UI style). A well-defined brand helps your OTT platform stand out in a crowded market.

How important is App Store Optimization (ASO) and SEO for an OTT service?
It's very important. SEO for your website helps you be discovered via organic search by targeting relevant keywords, optimizing meta tags, using schema markup, and producing content related to your niche. ASO is equally critical since many users discover OTT apps via app stores; optimizing titles, descriptions, screenshots, reviews, and app ratings can significantly boost downloads.
