It’s an unfortunate truth that many devs, while fantastic programmers, find their visual design muscle a little weak. It’s all good- we all have our strengths and weaknesses. Lucky for those of us that are design challenged, there are plenty of resources for you to create a kick as website for your customers to learn more about you, your apps, and possibly even hire you for their app development needs.
Tumblr.com
mikandi.tumblr.com
Although there are plenty of free website options for your adult apps, we love Tumblr the most. Tumblr makes it super easy to set up and share your content in their ecosystem. Plus, there are tons of free and premium themes you can use that are visually striking. You can find anything from magazine themes, to minimal, to portfolios. The very best part about Tumblr? It’s adult-friendly.
Above is a screenshot of our new Tumblr blog. (Why do we have a Tumblr blog? Read this.)
Here are some free and premium stunning Tumblr themes that you can use for your free adult website.
Why you need a website for your adult apps
Aside from MiKandi requiring you supply your website when you upload an app, there are other reasons why you should put up a site for your adult apps.
Instill confidence in your customers
Customers are wary of downloading porn. We don’t blame them. Years of shady practices from adult sites has totally destroyed customers’ trust in porn companies. At MiKandi, we’re dedicated to setting ourselves apart and being a Next Generation adult company. We do that by being transparent, personable, and accessible. You can, and should, do the same.
Your website should introduce you to your customers. You should make it easy for them to contact you via email, Twitter, and Facebook if you have a fan page. Consider having a blog where you post your updates to your apps in MiKandi, frequently asked questions, and where customers can leave feedback.
Who are you more likely to trust?
no website
website
That’s not to say the first developer isn’t trustworthy (that’s why I blurred out their information). But as a customer, I’d feel more comfortable giving my business to DoMeFaster.com. Upon visiting their site, I discover they have Twitter and YouTube accounts that they’re active on. Clearly, this is a developer who actively promotes and supports his or her app. In fact, you should really buy it now- it’s a great app.
Marketing
Your website can showcase your portfolio of apps available in MiKandi. With our Direct Inward Links, you can drive traffic directly to your app in the MiKandi Adult App Store. We’ve even created banners for you.
How else can you get the world out? Use Twitter! These MiKandi developers do a fantastic job promoting their apps on Twitter, to name a few.
Freelance work
You’ll have more luck getting freelance work if you post your portfolio online. We are consistently asked to recommend developers for app development projects. We happily refer folks to developers in our community. But if you don’t have a site, it’s a lot harder for us to refer you. I mean, we know your work is good because we’ve downloaded your apps, but that doesn’t mean a potential employer wants to go through the trouble of downloading your porn apps if you won’t go through the trouble of creating a portfolio.
So what are you waiting for?
It’s easy, fast, and FREE to get a website up for your adult app business today. If you have any questions, we’re happy to help! Comment below or shoot us an email at developer{at}mikandi{dot}com.
