Search Volume Data for iTunes App Store?
-
Ok, so maybe I'm looking in all the wrong places, But where can I get good search volume data for searches done in iTunes app store? Or is this something that Apple just doesn't share?

Neither Apple nor Google straight-out give you keyword data in their consoles. However, there are a few workarounds.
Apple has recently added "Apple Analytics" that give useful data, including device types and referring sites. They likely may add KW data in future.
GP (Google Play) does not report keyword data in the Developers Console but (surprise!) when connected to one's GSC (formerly known as WMT), all sorts of juicy data (including keywords) is viewable in GSC.
http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2015/05/rolling-out-red-carpet-for-app-owners.htmlApp Annie is very useful for competitive research. It's the best tool out there, followed from a distance by Sensor Tower, App Figures and others. But the best guestimate for volume they offer is "Results" for an app store search, which just means how many apps show up for it. Sensor Tower has a guestimate volume based on the AdWords KW tool.

I have come across a cool site called https://www.appannie.com/ that gives you some analytics, but nothing like search volumes, or even better, ability to track rankings within Google Play Store or iTunes app store. Still new, but really hoping somebody does something like this.

Community Discussion - Voice Search: A Future to be Shaped
Voice search represents a new challenge for SEOs, certainly, but it may also outline some pretty cool opportunities. In Purna Virji's post about the subject, there's an interesting line of thought raised in the comments: voice search reacting to differences in accent and mispronunciations, and taking those things into account for optimization. Let's just take a minute and think about all the wild possibilities in a hypothetical world where voice search is more prevalent than text queries. Release your imagination from the confines of current reality. cue Twilight Zone music

How often do you submit to local search/citation sites?
I recently received a Network Solutions spam/offer email regarding their internet marketing packages. One of the "benefits" they cited was that they submit your information to local search/citation sites once a month, to keep it up-to-date. I don't know about you guys, but my clients' information isn't changing on a frequent basis. I remember when it used to be a tactic to submit regularly to the same citation sites, but that seems like overkill now. Does anyone still do this, or is NS just trying to make their product sound good? Do we need to update citation sites frequently, or is it enough to update when there are actual changes to make?

How to optimize a site for search engines in India
I am working on a website that is a manufacturing company selling items to companies in the United States, India and some other countries. I already know what keywords I would target in the US but what about India? In the US we optimize our keywords for the Google search engine but in India what search engine is the biggest. I know http://www.google.co.in/ exists but is that the most powerful (most users) for India? Is there a certain language I do research for keywords or should I stick to English keywords? Also if I rank for a national keyword (no location in the phrase) well in the US should it be similar for India?
