drop internet, pickup android

If your website is not well established, and you are still struggling to bring traffic to your site. If you have been writing articles, giving free stuff to generate list, then drop all that.

Simply create an android application for what you are trying to do (instead of website and windows application, etc) and you will be surprised.

I wrote my first android app (https://market.android.com/details?id=mt.Jobfinder), few weeks ago and I don't have to do any marketing for it, people just come and download the app and register. It is a free app and people can register as well.

Do something, anything with android. It is like having a website 12 years ago - everything was easy...but now it is hard. We have been given this chance again.

  • What kind of results have you seen though? I.e., traffic (#'s/day), conversions, etc?

    I am seeing 100+ downloads a day, and 60+ registrations. This is only thru one app and no marketing.

    I plan to build few more.

      What exactly does your present app do, and how does it market your business and/or product?

    Your idea is a good one. I think ultimately the Android mobile market will far outstrip anything the Net has to offer in terms of marketing.

    I ran across this recently for WordPress: Majoobi iPhone / Android App Builder plugin.

      Goto vWorker.com or odesk and get an estimate of how much it will cost you to do that.

    Android is Booming.. The IM crowd did not pick up on it yet... only a few of us have...
    They DO have a "shopping" section which is really doing amazing...
