Blacksmith Games, the developers of
Plushed, have decided to team up with OpenFeint, ICS Mobile, and Tapjoy to launch
www.FreeAppaDay.com, a brand new website that will feature a different iPhone and iPod touch app that will be made available for free for 24 hours every single day. It's basically an expansion of Blacksmith Games'
Appvent Calendar '09 promotion, which will also be making a triumphant return.
FreeAppaDay.com will not only provide you, the consumer, with a free app every single day, but it will also provide developers and publishers a unique way to promote their apps. Although each app will only be free for 24 hours, the app's icon will remain on the front page of FreeAppaDay.com for the entire month, increasing exposure even when the app isn't being featured.
The site also sports an automatic notification system, which will provide you with an email notification if an app from the category or categories of your choice have been made available for free.
FreeAppaDay.com is already accessible, but it will officially launch on January 18th. If you are a developer who would like to submit an app for inclusion on the site, simply use the website's
submission form. According to the site's promoters, the criteria for selection is solely based on quality.
Blacksmith Games also intends to re-launch their Appvent Calendar promotion on April 1st, just in time for the Easter holiday season. If you are really into free apps, don't forget to check out
OpenFeint's new standalone iPhone and iPod touch app, which also features a free game each day; or I suppose you can just trust our judgement and keep watching AppAdvice.com, as we always try to highlight the very best free apps available in the App Store.
