Hi all!
I've been looking for different ways to promote my apps, and i wanted to know your experiences promoting them. I personally have tried to use app review sites to gain market exposure, but that hasnt worked quite so well. It seems everyone goes down the same path to advertising, which begs the question how are you supposed to get noticed if your doing what everyone else is doing. So my question is if anyone has thought of a different avenue of advertising that hasnt been explored yet. I think that this would be the best option for someone small like myself to make an impact with the bigger players.
I've done some research and found a website called TheAppForApps.com and that actually looks like a great idea but there isn't a lot of apps on there yet, although I have seen a few get added on over the past couple hours. I emailed the people there asking for more info and they came back to me explaining that they want to achieve something like the million dollar homepage but with iphone apps. They even sent me a promo to put some free blocks on the site just to get things started.
So i was thinking if everyone here got together and tried to get free space on the site we could generate some publicity for the site, and because we are the first on there it could make for some good advertising. I figured if its free why not. I am hoping to get my ad ready in the next couple days.
Let me know your thoughts or any other ideas.
Cheers, age_dev
