Now Twice As Many Apps Displayed In The App Store Charts
May 26, 2010
As most users use these as their main app discovery tool, the Top Paid/Free/Grossing charts are where it all happens in the App Store. It's therefore essential for developers to have a spot in there. It's tough, but it pays off.
Apple apparently realized the importance of these charts as well now and has just proceeded to double the number of displayed apps to 200. It's a smart move, many developers will be thrilled to see their app in there and users who rely on these are now given twice as much choice. It will most likely improve sales as well and it doesn't seem like it's making the App Store even more of a mess than it is already.
