Your landing pages are nicely designed. Some small suggestions: on Track My Ride, I found the "Get Protected Today" font not very readable and a bit tacky. Also, I don't understand why "Chat with us" looks like a Christmas present. On my 15" MBP, it actually overlaps with Contact Us. So it seems kind of redundant. You charge $30 for your products, so the scale of "success" will definitely be different. If you can convince 100 true fans to love your product, you'll make enough to survive, and iterate/improve. When I shipped my first apps, charging $0.99, I had a really hard time convincing users to download. The whole first year, I made about $1000. (And I was happy!) I would have been ecstatic if I had ever reached 100K downloads @ 99 cents. In the space of Free Apps, the scale of success is different. I wouldn't be very happy getting 100K free downloads. :-) Now I'm not saying I am not happy with 8 million DLs. It's pretty frickin' awesome, and I had never predicted it. But it's really a psychological trick to reset my bar at 10 million downloads, or 20 million, or even 100 million, to convince myself to keep working hard. :-D Good luck with your bank approvals!

Thanks for the feedback. Regarding the presents; Ah the Christmas theme. Just one of the small things that escape you when you're very busy. Have updated that now. I'm still not quite happy with the design of the TMR page. The whole thing needs to be scrapped when time permits and redesigned, fortunately people like the software beneath so it hasn't been the highest priority lately. I just looked up your landing page for Tiny Piano. It's nice and informative but the grey background is a bit striking for the black iphone. The contrast would be better with a lighter color. You can pickup some really nice templates from themeforest for a few $ if you're not a designer at heart. Best of luck cracking 10M downloads! I'll add an extra download to your totals shortly.

  Thanks for your feedback as well! I definitely don't have a graphic design background, so maybe I'll look on themeforest at some point. I just want to keep the site as lightweight as possible though, in case iPhone users visit it.
