How to market apps in India?

How was your experience with AppBrain? Were you able to get downloads fast enough to meet your daily budget? Did you only target india? What did you pay per download?

Downloads were very quick using AppBrain. I targetted a few other countries apart from India, but most of the downloads came from India. I did not receive much from USA. I used the minimum CPI bid which is 0.20.

How much did you spend for marketing(total amount) till date in AppBrain and what is ur total downloads.

Will PM you.

Hi,

you can try AppBrain or AppsZoom to get your app reviewed. In AppBrain you can mention about your app’s feature, and you can also put screen shots of your app to grab attentions of users. And yes, they’re non-paid.
