admin — Wed, 25 Jan 2012 23:02:51 +0000

Work begins on a specification for Eltham Redbacks Football Club should be an interesting project in developing a relatively simple iPhone app to deliver results, game fixtures and news to members aswell as maybe some funky social networking. As local iPhone App Developers in Melbourne its great to complete a local project.

As usual the trick is in defining specification carefully with our customers to achieve their objectives, very easy to build in too many funky features and not achieve the basic objective – push alerts for goal updates, live streaming of games, social voting on man / girl of the match, and tools for the coaches, player stats…

Melbourne App Developers

admin — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 11:44:34 +0000

As Melbourne App Developers we are always keen to promote our app business. We use SEO strategies, Adwords, social media and more. But how about a bit of old school advertising through word of mouth or stranger still your registration plate. With a car registration plate like F4TDOG we do get a few strange looks, however today we got a strange look, enquiry and job offer to complete a major app development piece for a large Melbourne business – not bad. My wife does now at least feel better about driving around Melbourne with F4TDOG on the car…

Promoting your app should also be a part of your mobile strategy, there’s alot of kudos to be gained in customers enjoying your new app but only if they know about it! As App Developers its interesting to understand and see that Apple provides an amazing new customer stream that you might not fully realise, you’ll have your app reviewed by several sites, customers leave feedback and friends recommend your app to each other. Having your app in iTunes really provides a great chance to showcase your business and benefit from the new revenue stream iTunes App Store can provide.
