Once you get a big audiance you can direct them to your paid apps. To make that happen you need to have a good ranking in the app store, and for your users to be willing to try your app simply because you wrote it. -James On thing that you forgot to mention in your artical is the importance of brand.

I teach marketing courses & if you want to sell these apps you must consider alot. One of the main errors people are making is NOT creating a demo site. When it comes to marketing Droid apps, you MUST have an app demo website for your potential clients to test out. The best & cheapest advice is to get WordPress to market it (Google that if you aren’t familiar). When you get setup use a premium Wordpress theme that is targeted to the Droid like this one: http://www.rawapps.com/21062/wp-theme-for-android-app-demo-sites/ It’s important to consider marketing your app even before you create one.

This is a concept that I have trouble with. As an end user I personally feel insulted when someone writes a program that does something useful, but then has made it less effective for me. It's as if the author of the program is saying, "I wrote this useful stuff, and lovingly debugged it, then I broke it on purpose before giving it to you. Now that you know I'm a dick, give me money and I'll let you have more functionality." I realize that that is a popular method of making money from software, but at the same time leaves the user feeling like "that guy writes useful software but he's a dick". I don't have all the answers but there must be a better way. I guess I like things more clearly defined, like "this is a professional software product, and you have to purchase it to get it" versus "this is a free program, share and enjoy". You know what you are dealing with, and at least you don't feel like you're dealing with a dick. I was following along with this until the “application crippling” part.
