I launched my first game app about three weeks ago and at the very start used some admob advertising to get my first users. But since then I have done no promotion whatsoever. Despite this, the number of additional active installs per day *appears* to be climbing exponentially - I say appears because I do not really have enough data to be confident - but at a glance it seems that the number of additional installs each day seems like a fairly constant proportion of the existing installed base (around 8 or 9%). This would indicate that new users are finding out about the game directly from existing users rather than by any kind of searching (that's my guess anyway).
For the record, my active user base has gone like this in the past 14 days: 575 625 679 739 808 882 937 1,009 1,096 1,152 1,260 1,397 1,542 1,676 saving you the math, the additional active users per day is this: 34 50 54 60 69 74 55 72 87 56 108 137 145 134 My question to the forum is this: should I be excited? Have other people had similar patterns with their app downloads? - If so, how did it pan out? Care to share your download histories? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
