Anyhow, my strategy was to make both the web app and the desktop app.
The web app is free, which drives users to the site, a small percentage of which buy the desktop app. The strategy works well, in the sense that I can run everything on autopilot for a few months at a time if I need to.
On the other hand, I sometimes feel like the relative profits are kind of low for the number of users that I have.
- rangera 10y agoPrograms like Nativefier allow you to quite easily (within reach of not-so-technical users) create desktop apps out of web apps. Unless your desktop app provides significant OS or other-app integration or additional features, you may want to reconsider your strategy.
