My only two good insights are:
1. Pick your niche with the greatest of care! The App Store is flooded with apps for everything — so if you do an app in a niche where the big dogs are it's an uphill battle (big dogs can also include anyone with a well known brand). Something to keep in mind is that people search for apps by terms, so even naming your product is a bit of an SEO exercise. Also aim to please the Otaku in any category!
2. Once you pick your niche try to build the very best app within that niche. By the way it's not just the functionality but the content surrounding the app. Make sure your app can win over the Otaku — if you can't do that there isn't any point in trying. Also give away as many free copies to the leading Otaku to try and build word of mouth.
