StartAD.mobi: Greeting

Hello, dear Gabrazhiteli.

With this post we open our official blog on Habré and begin to acquaint you with the StartAD.mobi service .

We invite all developers of mobile applications and just interested in continuing to get to know our service under Habrakat.

History of creation

We are a young team that develops applications for mobile platforms, and we, like all developers, had a moment when the application code was already completely written and tested, which means it was time to publish the application in the store and start rolling out it. And then the question arose - where to start? After all, we practically did not have an advertising budget, which means that the chances of getting into the TOP applications were approaching zero, so I had to carefully study how and where to spend the advertising budget. It often happened that money was invested in sources, which in the end did not affect the promotion of the application.

But the more applications we got, the easier it was to promote them in the TOP of their category. We pushed traffic from old ones to new applications and this gave and gives good results - our applications began to rise in the TOP of their category on their own with virtually no monetary costs (so far only on Android, but we strive for similar on iOS, and in the future on other platforms). Of course, TOP categories, this is not a general TOP, but, in our opinion, this is also very good.

At one wonderful moment, the idea came to us that there are many people like us - every mobile application developer is faced with the problems of promoting their brainchildren. We thought, what if we share our traffic with other developers and develop a new advertising service for free promotion of applications in centralized stores? After all, by joint efforts we will be able to build a platform that will help good and high-quality applications achieve success.

No sooner said than done. StartAD.mobi service is the embodiment of our idea.

So what is this service and what are our goals?

The objective of our service is to help independent developers facilitate the promotion of their applications and reduce the advertising budget, which is usually always lacking.

StartAD.mobi is built on the principle of a banner-exchange network. Developers integrate the code into their applications and thus advertise the applications from each other, which helps them to increase the number of application installations and thereby raise them in the ratings of centralized stores.

Another cross-promotion?

Probably, everyone is thinking “Another cross-promotion service?” Fuuu ... "- No .

Our system works as a cross-promotion service, but with different mechanics inside, which we have not yet encountered in such systems.
For competitors, everything works on the principle of “how many users I brought, so much I got into my applications”, but with us everything is different.

Applications connected to StartAD.mobi will receive more traffic than they give themselves . We will talk more about this in one of the following posts.

Our advantages

• our system was created in order to help new applications quickly rise in rankings and get a unique opportunity to enter the commercial level for free ;
• developers can adapt the visual style of ads in the system to the design of their applications;
• the system includes the possibility of “explosive growth” (we will describe how it works in the following posts);
• our service does not interfere with monetizing the application through adMob, inMobi and similar platforms;

So, can you already try your service?

At the moment, we are conducting closed testing of the service on our applications - we are improving the mechanics, correcting the shortcomings and collecting statistics on the operation of the service as a whole.

If you are interested in our project, subscribe to our blog or leave your e-mail on the website StartAD.mobi and we will inform you about the launch of the project.

And if you decide to participate in beta testing of the project on one of your applications, then write in a personal email (do not forget to tell a little about your application and its attendance at the moment) and we will arrange access to the system as soon as possible.
