still pretty low, that's 700/day. I've never released a free app that didn't get < 1,000 d/l a day, and my apps are niche apps with no advertising or marketing at all.

I would remove the 10,000 copies reference because anyone who has any experience on the app store would see that those numbers are very low. It's like bragging about a 3.0 GPA.

We cannot "remove the 10,000 copies reference" because this was an article written about us, not by us.

Also, we like the way our graphs are inflecting. In the first week we pushed way less than 700/day and in the second week we pushed way more. Dividing it out and saying 700/day is a bit simplistic.

In any case, I fail to see the purpose of your comments. What's the goal?

I released a free app last week. No marketing or advertising. It's got 2 downloads, and one of those was me.

How did you get those downloads?
