High quality landing pages / websites for your app at affordable prices !

Do we need a website for our iOS / Android app ? The first question is why you need a website for your app? Is it even needed? All apps/games need a website too? Of course, No! If you are publishing a game which is a copy/clone of a popular game which is already available 100 + times in app store and play store (I mean a re-skinned game), probably you don’t need a website. But if you are publishing a unique app of you own, a website is highly recommended. A dedicated website for an app is not a […]

The best approach I am suggesting […]

Everybody loves to make a unique app which is completely not available in store yet. But is it feasible ? The Simple answer is Yes . But it is not as easy as you believe. Nowadays finding a 100% new idea for an app is almost impossible . The best thing we can do is ‘create an app which is available already, but with much better features’ or ‘create an app which is unique , but somewhat similar to an existing app’. I am not discouraging you . But it is a fact that almost all good app ideas are already created by other developers . […]
