Android Market Reaches 10 Billion App Downloads

The Google Android app market reached a huge milestone this week. 10 billion apps have been downloaded from the Android Market. GigaOm reports that people are downloading 1 billion Android apps a month. That number is huge. Read more about the race between the Apple App store and the Android Market and how developers will look to Android for better monetization in the future. We were happy to read one particular point made by GigaOm reporter Ryan Kim:
“But as more developers increasingly make their money through free-to-use apps that monetize through in-app purchase and advertising, the growth in downloads on Android Market will only entice more development on Android. The platform still needs work to become more profitable for developers, but the download momentum is clearly there.”
Signup ads by Pontiflex have been proven to be the best option for developers who really want to keep their apps free for users.
