How can I promote an app that I have built? it currently has 0 users and I have no friends or family to show it to
There are a number of ways to get your app off the ground. Consider joining a community relevant to your target audience, and seeing if anybody there is interested in your app. You can gain valuable feedback and a few users this way. To gain even more users, try leveraging social media platforms such as Twitter, Mastodon, and Reddit. You can create posts to promote your app and use hashtags to reach a wider audience. You can also consider advertising your app through platforms like Google Ads or Apple Search Ads. These platforms allow you to target specific demographics and reach a wide audience. Finally, you can use App Store Optimization (ASO) to increase your app's visibility on the App Store and Google Play Store. This involves optimizing your app's name, description, and keywords to make it easier for potential users to find. By using a combination of these strategies, you can increase the visibility of your app and start to build up a user base.
Thanks. And once my app has users what's the best way to monetize it? Should I make a premium subscription and add new features to it? Should I make the app or parts of it paid? Should I just use ads in the app?
