App Store Positions

[John McKerrell]

Hi

I gave a brief talk a few months back about some work I'd been doing to store the app store top 100 positions in a database. I've finally got around to actually doing something with the data and have started sending out daily emails to myself and a few others with sparklines showing performance in all the top 100s that each app has been in over the last week. You can read a bit more about it and see a screenshot here:

I thought I'd offer up on this list that if anyone else wants to receive a daily email with positions in then just send me over an email telling me: the email address you want to get the email sent to, the app ID for your app and the name of your app. Feel free to include multiple apps.

Right now the email's a bit basic and can be quite long if you're doing well so I'd appreciate suggestions on improvements, though I've no idea when I'll get around to doing them!

I promise not to do anything dodgy with your email address, though I reserve the right to at the very least stick an advert in the daily email at some point in the future and perhaps send you the odd status email for the service, though I have no particular plans to do either right now.

Hope you find this useful.

John
