just wondering how long peoples apps are being downloaded after the initial hit. i know theres some exceptions of apps doing really well.

for instance (cant remember who it was), he made an app in like 5 hours and made like $3k in a week....how did it go after that? are you still getting downloads? or has it fallen into oblivion.

    I made a free app in Feb 2008 that still gets 600-1000 downloads per day. That's the exception though, most of my apps settled down after a couple of weeks at most.

    My Japanese Soroban and pinball game have regular sales after months. Not a lot but steady. Those are two things people tend to search for I think. After the initial excitement is over Keywords/tags play a huge factor.

    I get it about the initial excitement. Sales seem to soar in the first few days and drops after a few day. But if the games is that great, you can expect regular sales. It would not be as high as before but passable.
