Description
So what if you’re a ninja coder?
So what if you’ve created an app that’s both revolutionary and useful?
It doesn’t matter. You won’t get sales unless you know how to market it.
I can show you how. I’ve been through the entire process, and I’ve succeeded where most others fail.
Don’t repeat their mistakes.
That’s why I wrote The Best Book On Marketing Your Android App. That title may strike you as presumptuous, but I stand behind my advice. And I guarantee that you won’t be able to find better advice anywhere else.
Don’t waste your time on the outdated and ineffective advice of other so-called Android “experts” who ultimately can’t back up their promises. My advice, on the other hand, comes with a 100% lifetime guarantee. No questions asked.
I concentrate on the most important topics for monetizing your Android apps:
- The pricing strategies that will maximize your profits
- The secrets for leveraging markets outside the Android Market to generate publicity
- Tips for writing high-performance code for quick, responsive apps
- Search and marketing hacks for outranking your competitors
- How to use open source Google apps for accelerating your development process
- Tips for thinking up new and exciting apps
- A list of the most lucrative types of app, along with the pros and cons of each
- How to easily translate your app onto other platforms
- Strategies for maximizing customer ratings
- Using blogs and forums to increase your market ranking
- Avoiding the Android Market 70-30 split
- How to protect your app from piracy
- The easiest way of creating free and paid versions of your app
- What Google looks for when picking featured apps

FAQs
My company has already finished developing our app, but our sales are close to zero, and we haven't even covered the cost of development! Do we have to start from scratch with a new app?
You don't, and this book can help you more than anyone else! The marketing strategies you will find in this book apply equally to apps which already exist in the store as they do to apps which have yet to be fully formed. Even if your app has been languishing in the app store for months, you can still kickstart your sales with the methods that I used to take my sales to the top of the list.
My company is creating software for multiple platforms, including iPhone 4, Android, HTC, and iPad 2. Is your book specific to Android, or does it have cross-platform tips?
While I created my best-selling app on the Android platform, the strategies for marketing that I cover within the book can be applied equally to the iPhone and iPad application stores. The most important thing is learning how to maximize your revenue through search and advertising techniques, and these work across all platforms and in all stores, not just on the Android.
