I received an email from PC World lastnight saying that they are writing a review about my application, CraigsList Reader, and wanted to ask few question. That email lady was really nice and told me that the review will be on the site around the end of the month.

I can't wait!

    That's very cool! Good for you. I'd love to create a useful app myself.

    I just checked it out and it looks neat. I am going to download and tinker with it. I have a few ideas how I could use a tool like this.

    Best of luck!

    I can't wait to see the review.

    They reviewed the application once before 10 Craigslist Tips for Power Users - PC World as part of a bigger review, but this one is going to be just for my app.

    Congrats man!

    I believe you are about to get a steady flood of traffic from them. Be sure to hit the steel while it's hot and monetize it. Prepare your site for it.

    Good luck with your future applications too.

    Don't forget to add on your marketing material "as featured in PC World..." logos, etc. That will boost your credibility and do more for you long term than any initial traffic will, especially after the traffic surge has died off!

    Make sure you CAPTURE leads from that traffic too, that's the best way to captalize on the opportunity.

    You may want to get your opt-in set up before that review comes out. It'll give you a way to start a list for when you make additional, equally stellar software!

      i used to ask people to sign up for newletter (which I never sent), and then spammers got hold of it and registered in huge numbers every day...all bogus email addresses, but I had no idea which one was legit and which one wasn't, so I just took that whole piece out from my site.

      As you already know, I have few thousand email addresses in my database and hope to do something about them one day. I guess after things settle down, I will start to send them emails.

      Funny thing is...this review is happening at the right time because as you know I just put a price tag on the software (it used to be free) couple of days ago. I am hoping that this review is nice and converts.
