Step 2: your Developer Page

Once your Google Developer account is created and paid for, you have a branding opportunity on the Google Play Store.
To create a developer page, you need to have at least one published app on Google Play.

People can visit your developer page to learn more about your brand and find all the apps that you’ve published on Google Play.

 

Developer pages aren’t required. If you don’t set up a developer page, other apps that you’ve published will continue to be displayed on your developer-specific app collections on Google Play.
