Why Create a Video About Your App?
September 19th, 2011
If you’ve created a fantastic Android app and you’re looking for more ways to get people to download it, don’t forget the power of videos. Remember Friday, Friday? Or Charlie Bit My Finger? Chances are, you and all of your friends have seen them. That’s because videos are powerful stuff.
Videos have a lot of advantages over other forms of media:
- You can show the app instead of just talking about it.
- You can show people enjoying the app.
- YouTube is an extra place where people can search for you.
- Videos get priority when they’re shared on Facebook.
- People don’t have the patience to read a paragraph of text, but when you say it out loud for them on a video, they hear it all!
- You can convey excitement, eagerness, and other emotions that people will expect to feel when they use your app.
In short, when you use YouTube videos to promote your app, you have many of the advantages that come with creating a professional commercial for a name-brand product. Next time, we’ll give you some pointers on how to make that commercial without the budget of a professional company.
