Finally reached my goal of $3,000 MRR. It means a lot to me as it's my breakeven point (same amount as my current salary in eastern Europe). Most of it can be attributed to 1 of my apps, where I found high popularity keyword with no competition and combined it with SEO…
                                            This is my best converting paywall: > simple > big title describing the wanted end result > only one always visible bug button on bottom to purchase > button label must be action: "Get Results", "Start 7-Day Free Trial" etc > 3 benefits of an app (always focu on user, don't…
rare childhood christmas memory: not being able to take a bath because theres a carp in the bathtub
                                            To earn money from X you need to hit 5M impressions in the last 90 days. That's around 50,000 impressions a day. This is the first time I hit that daily number and it feels incredibly hard. But so did everything at the start. Getting into the Creator Revenue Sharing program…
                                            I never had big break-through. My revenue always grew little by little. It doesn't produce those amazing viral posts where you go from $0 to $1M in a month. But it's much sustainable attitude. I always iterate on my apps, try to test features and see the results. This not…
                                            I try to be as nice as possible to app reviewers but holy fuck it's hard sometimes.
I live in a country where people HATE to pay for an app. 85% of people use Android. And if you ask for $0.99 you literally get death threats and get called greedy. That's why I was very skeptical to charge anything more than a few dollars. The result? - People classified my…
                                            I can see first purchases caused by localization of my app. I got few sales from Germany, France and Canada. My ASO sucks for these countries so as I get more purchases this might signal to Apple to push my app more to the top.
Working hard and being consistent is very important but so is having adequate rest. Make sure to listen to your body and give it a rest. One step back, two steps forward.
Fix your keyword research, then fix your ASO, then fix your onboarding, then fix your offer, then fix your ratings, then fix your product, then fix your A/B testing, then fix your shareability, then fix your retention, then fix your margins etc. Most people try to have the…
                                            Screenshots have such enormous influence on conversion rate in App Store, that is ridiculous people never try to A/B test them. You can literally double your traffic from screenshots changes only.
My release with new localizations is live, 24 hours in and I don't see any additional traffic yet. But this is probably change that will have impact after few weeks.
Everytime I hit day with big revenue I get little bit lazy and have tendency to slack off. On the other hand when the revenue is going down all my internal alarms go off and I have suddenly the biggest motivation ever. Anybody feels the same?
I will be deleting one of my apps. When I had no revenue I was open to take risks, but if I want to bet my future on this i have to be more careful. This app is making around $300 MRR and is connected to one popular artist so the connection is quite obvious.

                                            Yesterday I had my highest-grossing day. I made $320 which if I earned on a regular daily basis would meet my goal for next year. Now let's get back to work to make this the norm.
