Audio/Noise Asset Listing Optimization Guide

Guidelines for creating standout Audio/Noise assets on the Unity Asset Store.

Market Size

Very small - fewer than 100 assets

Competition Level

Lower competition - niche quality can stand out

Average Price

Around $18.0

Title Optimization

Your title is the first thing buyers see

Optimal Length
20-36 characters (3-5 words)

Best Practices:

  • Put the asset type and the main benefit in the first 40 characters.
  • Avoid internal versioning or vague adjectives.
  • Keep it specific and scannable.
  • Front-load primary keywords and the asset type.
  • Avoid filler words like 'Ultimate' unless you can prove scope.
  • Use Title Case for readability.
Good Examples
  • Analog Horror Audio Pack
  • Nautilus - Abyssal Background Noises
  • Liminal-Spaces - Eerie Ambients
  • Analog Horror Obscure Sounds
Bad Examples
  • Dark Adventure Ambient Noise
  • Futuristic Industrial Soundscapes

Description Optimization

Detailed, structured content converts browsers to buyers

Optimal Length
120-250 words

Recommended Structure:

  1. 1What it is and who it's for.
  2. 2What's included (with counts).
  3. 3Compatibility and requirements.
  4. 4Usage examples or demo scenes.
  5. 5Support and updates.

Writing Tips:

  • Explain exactly what's included with counts, formats, and variations.
  • State supported pipelines/Unity versions and any requirements.
  • Add 2-4 concrete use cases so buyers can picture fit.
  • Link to a demo scene or quickstart steps.
  • Keep paragraphs short and scannable.

Example Description Template:

Bring believable results to your project with a curated, ready-to-use set. You'll get multiple variations, clear folder structure, and support for common Unity pipelines (URP/HDRP or Built-in). Designed for quick iteration, this pack blends quality with performance and ships with a small demo scene and usage tips so you can drag-and-drop and ship faster.

Image & Screenshot Guidelines

Visual quality directly impacts conversion rates

Optimal Count
4-5 images

Requirements:

  • One clean hero image.
  • Detail views of key features.
  • In-engine screenshots.
  • Optional short video.

Pro Tips:

  • Lead with a clean hero that summarizes the value.
  • Use consistent framing and typography across images.
  • Include at least one real in-engine screenshot.
  • Avoid busy collages—keep each image focused on one idea.

Tags & Keywords Strategy

Maximize discoverability through search

Tags
8-12 relevant tags

Common Tags for Audio/Noise:

Tagging Tips:

  • Mix generic discovery tags with specific ones that describe content or workflow.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Learn from others' errors and optimize from the start

Thin or missing description

Impact:

Buyers can't tell what's included or if it fits their project, so they bounce.

Solution:

Write 120-250 words covering what it is, what's included (counts, formats), compatibility, and practical examples.

Too few or generic preview images

Impact:

Low confidence and poor discoverability on category pages.

Solution:

Show 6-10 images: hero shots, close-ups, real in-engine views, and a simple infographic of what's included.

Missing or irrelevant tags

Impact:

Search and category filters won't surface your asset to the right audience.

Solution:

Add 8-12 relevant tags matching genre, pipeline, resolution, and use cases.

Outdated listing with no recent updates

Impact:

Signals poor maintenance and may break on newer Unity versions/pipelines.

Solution:

Ship a small update (URP/HDRP notes, demo scene refresh) and highlight the new support in the changelog.

Underpricing that undermines quality

Impact:

Very low prices can imply low quality and reduce trust.

Solution:

Price fairly for the content and include a free lite sample instead of discounting the main pack.
