Week 6 EOC: There's an App for That!

We are a mobile generation; a generation always on the go. wherever we are, we want to be productive as well. here is my idea for an app: a suite of productivity apps grouped together for easy access. it is compatible with Microsoft Office, and allows the user to be productive. the suite includes:

  1. A full-function word processor that is compatible with Microsoft Word, Open Office and LibreOffice Writer. 
  2. presentation software with all of the functions of Microsoft PowerPoint and other presentation software
  3. a spreadsheet program that is comparable to Excel; and
  4. Cross-platform compatibility. this means that it does not matter what type of computer you use. the files
the cost of this productivity suite is only $0.99. this is a steal, especially if you cannot afford Microsoft Office. this means that everybody can be productive no matter where you are or what type of computer you use.

Tips to Increase Traffic to Your Website
1.      Shameless Self-Promotion- If you don’t promote your website, who will?
2.      Harness the power of social media, Link building and content aggregators- social media sites (Facebook, twitter, Etc.), content aggregators (Technorati is the best one, IMO) and basic link sharing can all drive traffic to your website.
3.      Search Engine Optimization-
4.      Forum groups-forums allow you to target a specific group of people.
5.      Opt-in email- having people give you their email addresses allows you to have a dedicated fan base.
