Tips on getting my Roku channel ranked

Hello all,
I am interested in getting my Roku app up to the top in it's category. I would like to achieve a higher number of rankings and the visibility when people browse in the channel store. Any idea on how I would be able to give my app an edge?

To 'cheat' the system, you could pay people to rank your channel with their rokus... The rankings are kept on an 'account basis' - so one roku account for one vote.

A non-cheating way to do it would be to have a pop up in your channel that says "Like this channel? Please rate it from the home screen or channel store" with OK, and Don't Show This again" buttons.

I guess the point is, if your app is really good, people will rank it on their own. Which is how the system is supposed to work. 🙂

Currently, the individual category rows are sorted based on usage over the last 7 days.
