Can developers make a fortune in Android Market?

Q. Hi guys im an android developer i had never took the step to share my apps on google market cuz i dont know if its worh it, now some people says that android developers makes fortune by sharing their apps on Google market (Google play) and some others says its not worth it cuz android users dont buy stuff why should they when they could download it for free from other websites?

So what do you think is it worth it or not?

A. I doubt it.

Android has too many problems. Google has made it too easy for just anyone to create and market low quality mobile devices. For example Samsung owns almost half the market on mobile devices. Their devices are buggy at best.

You will spend all your time providing free support. Most apps sell for about $3. I am guessing Google will get half of that so your margin will be about $1.5. Do you really want to spend all your time supporting "Joe consumer" who bought his phone from a vending machine at an airport in Hong Kong?

Somebody knows how to delete Google Play market in a android phone?
Q. Hello guys, I installed Google Play market in my android phone and now I don't know how to delete it, I download the android market apk but there is a error, it's "The application can't be installed" I don't know what is it but please help me.

A. Why?

Doh! Android market is now Google play!

What caused Google to emerge as a leader in internet search over its competitors?
Q. In the early days of the www as we know it, how did Google take market share away from competitors like Yahoo!, Lycos, Web-crawler, Alta Vista, Netscape, Mamma, Ask Jeeves, etc etc. I'm sure there are several more. Seems that many offer several of the same hits - so how did Google emerge as leader?

Also are there any other search engines not as well heard of that offer any unique features as an alternative?

A. Ok as a Search Engine Optimization specialist I can tell you that Google became popular because they offered more relevant results.

At the time before Google, all the Search Engines more or less worked the same, basing all their information from Meta Keywords and on page content. This was quickly found to be easy to manipulate and get your website to be number one for a specific search event though your website had nothing to do with it.
Google decided that a better way to decide what sites are most relevant is by counting the number ob other websites that link to them. So as to assume if websites A, B, and C all link to Website D using the same type of anchor text, then Website D must be the most relevant.
This and some other algorithm factors that were just better the other engines led to Google becoming the best search engine.

If you want to know what made Google so rich its their introduction to their Google Adwords advertising campaign but thats a whole other story.
