My experience with Routesy (a public transit prediction application) is that it continues to sell steadily over time, even when it's not updated for a long time, and even when it's not new anymore. I think there's a major difference between applications that people play with for fun and ones that they intend to use every day.
If I were in your shoes (and I sort of am!) I would recommend really focusing a lot on user retention, and make sure you have analytics set up in your application (I use Flurry). You want to make sure that the people who are using your app like it enough to make it a part of their routine. If not, you need a good communication channel to figure out how to make improvements.
Your idea sounds really cool and buzz-worthy, so I would recommend checking out some of the recently posted articles here about how to pitch to bloggers. If you can pull it off, you should also create a spiffy demo video, and make it funny if you can.
Good luck Aditya, and please share your story and let us know how it goes! :)
- adityakothadiya 16y agoThanks for great insights and suggestions! Yeah, retention is key for my app, as it's sort of subscription based model. So thanks for analytics suggestion. Will cook up demo video as well.
