Created Insta/Snap Story Inspired News/Content Reader. Any advice on increasing traffic?
I've always been a big fan of the Snapchat/Instagram Story UI format but I wasn't the biggest fan of the content on those applications. At the same time I wanted a single place where I could get up to speed on various topics. I ended up combining the ideas.
This works exactly as Snapchats 'Discover' Section. There is a collection of 'streams' of various topics (news, gaming, nature, etc.) You click a stream, and you can tap or click to go forward or back. When done the stream viewer closes and the stream link is greyed out until new items are available. It has embedded video and picture support and feels like modern day 'channel surfing'.
Any promotion/product ideas on how to drive traffic?
Have good content - that's the bottom line. good content will always attract more users and get people to share.
If you start with bad content and bring no value to users, you're starting off on the back foot. start with good content, and it will be much easier
