Google’s Guide to the App Galaxy Provides Priceless Tips for Developers
“Brand your app, don’t just name it.” This simple tip is among the many offered up as part of a new initiative from Google to increase the quality of apps available for Android devices. The Guide to the App Galaxy by Google is a website created for developers, keeping in mind that the most technically savvy individuals aren’t always expert marketers of their own material. The well-designed website uses animations of rockets, space, and beyond to instill knowledge Google sees as crucial to developing and promoting a successful app.
Quick links provide devs with advice on promotion, monetization, analytics, and evaluation. Case studies include Angry Birds and The Weather Channel allow you to follow the journeys of some of the Android Market’s biggest successes, but Google also gives users the opportunity to create their own path to the stars.
It’s a fun, interactive site that those not interested in developing apps should find interesting as well, if only for the creative navigation that allows you to launch a rocket into space.
