How To Create Successful iPhone Apps And Make Money

Do you know that actually anyone can easily create an iPhone apps and make money? In fact, a 9 year old boy from Singapore just did that and has sold over 4,000 downloads of his “Doodle Kids” game.

Here’s another one…

How did Steve Demeter make almost 0,000 in profits in just a few weeks?

Easy.

He created “Trism” – a remarkably inventive puzzle game app that appeal to a general audience. His app is entertaining, clean and unobtrusive.

It was that simple idea that skyrocketed him to the top of the iPhone app success list.

His team? Himself, mainly, with a little bit of help from a friend and a contracted designer (whom he paid only 0.)

For the average person who want to know how to make money with iphone apps, the process is strategic, intentional, and straight forward. Here are some ideas to help you get started.

Simplicity

Develop an app that is focused, practical, and small in size. The smaller the app file, the faster it will run and the more enticing it is to potential buyers. If the app is too big, buyers might not have room for it on their iPhone, causing fewer people to buy it, and you might not make as much money with your iPhone app.

Avoid letting extra features sneak into your app. If they are important, save them, and after the initial release of your app, release a premium version with the extra features. This will allow you to sell the simpler release (for those who need a smaller app), but also have a more extensive app that you can charge more for.

Keep it small, keep it simple, and create an app that people can use over and over again.

Submit your app to the Apple Web App Directory

Apple’s Web app directory is the premiere listing of the newest applications. You won’t find much traffic on other directories, so you should submit to the Apple directory. Once you submit, wait for Apple to review your app. This review is merely to see if your app is usable and functions correctly.

Once Apple reviews your app – which takes about a day – they’ll put your app at the top of their chronological list. You’ll get a lot of hits for the first few days because of your app’s place at the top of the directory list. This is the most crucial part of your total revenue because it’s when your app will be seen the most and you will make the most money with iPhone apps.

Resubmit your App

Apple will relist your app at the top of the directory if you resubmit your app with revisions. Fill out a resubmission form and fill out the “What’s New” section. Even if your revisions are small and simple, you should still resubmit your product. This will increase visibility, placing you at the top of the directory list once again.

Always resubmit your app on a Thursday or Friday. Apple doesn’t list apps during weekends, so the ones listed on Thursday and Friday stay at the top of the list the longest.

All of these steps WILL help your iPhone app gain exposure and buyers, but they don’t guarantee the success of your product. You MUST have a compelling, concise, practical, and efficient app. If your app fits this mold and you follow these steps, you will have success. The key is coming up with a good idea, but the trick is showing your app to the world once it is created. If you can do this, you will make money with your iPhone apps.

5 Best Baseball Apps For IPad, IPhone and IPod Gaming

It’s only natural that Baseball, that much-loved all-American pastime, would make its way into the App Store. But even the most fanatical cubs fan would have a hard time sorting through the thousands of Baseball apps. So we did it for you! Here are the 5 Best Baseball Apps for your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch. Play Ball!

As a fan of the great American pastime and an Apple mobile device owner, you know that baseball is an intricate game played by some of the best athletes in the world. You also know just how awesomely capable your IPhone or IPad can be when it comes to using apps. The next time that you are searching for that something extra to add to your baseball experience, consider the following 5 apps that can be found in the app store. They will really open your eyes to the capabilities that your mobile device can offer.

MLB.com At-Bat 2010: This is the widely known, highly recommended baseball app that will allow you to follow the pitch-by-pitch action for any game that is being played for that day. Just want to get some quick scores, this app can also provide those to you as well, as the homepage provides a quick rundown of all the day’s action. Looking to find general stats or who is leading the league in RBI? You guessed it – this baseball app can provide all of those things to you in a nice little package. The only drawback to the MLB.com At-Bat 2010 app is that it can be a little pricey at .99, but the sheer amount of information that can be garnered from this particular app makes it far and away the best baseball app you will find in the app store.

iScore: Come on, admit it. One of your most favorite reasons to go to a baseball game is to fill in the box score in the program that you buy. You secretly enjoy when there’s a 6-4-3 double play because that means you get to write numbers and draw circles in two squares concurrently. Now, you can take the ability to score a game home with you, as iScore is an app that allows you to keep official score of the game at home while you watch it on TV or listen to it on the radio. Now, the IPad version will probably be the better option for users who have both the IPhone and the IPad because the IPad’s bigger screen will allow you to see the entire card. Whatever device you choose the app for, you are getting a fun and exciting app that you can use over and over again.

MLB World Series 2010: This is the only playable baseball app that offers you every Major League Ballpark and full team rosters. The app offers two modes: World Series and Regular Series. You also have the option to play defense yourself or have the computer play defense for you. The pitcher/batter interface is unlike any other app that is offered for your Apple mobile device. Even though the .99 price tag could possibly turn some people off, don’t let the little bit of extra money deter you from buying this great baseball simulation app.

Fantasy Baseball Cheatsheet ’10: Fantasy baseball can provide some of the most enjoyable moments of the entire baseball season. Scouring stat sheets, reading magazines cover to cover, and setting up your own personal draft board makes watching Sportscenter at night an absolute joy. Before you go into your draft, however, you want to make sure that you have statistics and a draft board that are completely up to date. This baseball app (available from the app store for 0.99) will allow you to make your own customized draft board, keep track of players already drafted in your draft, and do quick updates on statistics during your draft.

MyFantasyTeams Professional Edition: This innovative app allows you to manage any fantasy team that you currently own right from your IPad or IPhone. Track stats, do trades, sign free agents, or just check up on your league standings. If it involves your fantasy team, this app can help you become more successful. At the .99 price tag, this app is a sure bargain for any avid or novice fantasy baseball player.

Our choices for the 5 best baseball apps are not the only apps for playing baseball available for the iPad, iPhone and iPod touch. There are many to choose from. Load up a few apps before the next game and the 7th-inning stretch will be a lot more interesting.

Mobile Roadie lets you make iPhone apps for a fairly low cost. Their toolset made the LeWeb app, and many others. On Monday they will ship an app for the Golden Globes award show. But here the CEO, Michael Schneider, @msfd on Twitter, speaks up for iPhone apps and why doing just a web page with HTML 5, as the CEO of NextStop told me a few weeks ago, is not enough.
