App Data
App development, sales and downloads for mobile devices are booming. The app data, from Marketing research firm M2 Research, has been predicted to blow past the $6 Billion mark in 2012 for mobile gaming apps alone.
This infographic from app-promo.com , breaks down the slim minority of app developers who are making a go in app development businesses, while the majority of app developers struggle. A key fact in this infographic, those entrepreneurs who spend more on marketing to promote their apps, have better success. Here are some highlights on mobile apps and app developers:
- 12% earn $50,000 or more per year
- 11% achieve 500,000 downloads or more
- Top Earners spend an average of $30,000 on marketing
But:
- 80% of app developers don’t generate enough revenue for a stand alone business
- 59% don’t make enough money to break-even on development costs
- 68% have earned $5,000 or less on their best-selling app
- 63% experienced 50,000 downloads or less for their top-selling app
