Go on, have a guess. The dream of app developers everywhere is one of the top spots in the app store, but how much dosh are these coveted positions actually worth? Up untill now app developers keep this information very close to their chest, but Tap Tap Tap, who have the number 2 spot, put it all out there. After launching with a great product and the helpful hand of positive blog coverage, Convert shot up the charts to #2 with roughly 50,000 sales spread out across two weeks. But once it hit #2, the downloads spiked: 9,000 downloads per day.

After Apple takes their cut, that’s roughly $6,300 a day.

Considering that taptaptap is just a handful of guys (their primary team is made up of just 3) — and that they made $35,000+ from sales in two weeks as they climbed the charts. Looks like drinks are on these guys. Certainly not bad for a days work!
