What an interesting week !
It started first on monday late afternoon with the usual email from the Apple review team approving ezMoviePick. That evening I did submit the information that the app was available to a few web site - including MacWorld.com.
The day after, tuesday, late in the afternoon I discover that MacWorld did publish a story about ezMoviePick, and back at home I checked my server logs to see that this article was definitely bringing quite some traffic to my fun iPhone application.
On wednesday I was contacted by a reviewer from TUAW.com asking for a promo code so he can test and review the application. TUAW did publish their article on thursday late afternoon, and again it's bringing quite some traffic to my site.
Overall the two published articles did help the launch of ezMoviePick by a lot. I can definitely see the impact of such press coverage. On wednesday the application was ranked #66 in the Top Paid application for the Entertainment category, and as of this morning the application is still showing in the Top 100 (#90 currently). And no breaking in into the Top 100 of a category -at least not in the top 20 for a category- is not generating enough to retire.
So this is what I consider an interesting week.
