Overview
Sleepiest is an app that brings bedtime stories, lullabies, meditations and soothing sounds to millions of users worldwide. An internationally recognized Apple recommendation, Sleepiest hopes to bring its tested sleep aids to users.
Sleepiest is consistently featured by Apple on its today tab giving it widespread visibility. While this is excellent exposure, the Sleepiest team also understood that there was great potential to grow even more by optimizing for organic search. Gummicube was enlisted to help with these efforts.
