Default need some opinion..

Hi! im just new here and i need some help...

I uploaded an iphone app to the apple app store about 3 months ago and it still has ZERO downloads! How did
they market it? I definitely need some tips!so I found this youtube:
iPhone App Marketing Tips and Strategies -- How to Grow Your User Base Fast - YouTube but the sound quality is
terrible and it sounds too complicated so if you know any sites or
suggestions that would help, I would be very thankful!

Thanks!

You asked 'how did they market it?' Who is 'They' ??

You are the one that is supposed to market the app. So, how did you market the app?

You know there's a section on this forum called "Shameless Advertising", right? Write up some copy (it doesn't have to be fantastic) and throw it and a link to your app there.

Meanwhile it sounds like your sole amount of research (in 3 months?) has been one bad You Tube video. Are you sure there are absolutely no discussion forums for whatever market your app is targeting? Heck - "iguana ****" gets 1.35M hits on Google, and I hope you thought to target a larger market than that!

Read "App Savy" section on marketing.

There are some app marketing services out there for developers, you might want to take a look.

Other venues people use are app review sites, video reviewers, and online ad campaigns, etc.

The best way to promote your iPhone app is by getting some good reviews and this will help your app to reach your target and thereby increase the number of downloads. Here you can find our links below.
