With about 450 million mobile users in China, there are around 30 app stores for Android and around 10 for iOS. However, most app stores are similar to each other, including the apps in each app store, the requirements and app submitting procedure. According to the statistics of TalkingData, the biggest app stores in China are app stores of Tencent, 360 and Baidu. In this article, we list 15 top app stores in China and introduce how to submit your app to each app store in detail.

1. 360 App Store

360 app store is one of the most popular and safest app stores in China. According to the statistics of TalkingData, the biggest independent mobile data service platform in China, the coverage and active rate of 360 app store is the TOP1 of China’s mobile app store. Compared to other mobile app stores, 360 App Store has the least ShanZhai app (ShanZhai app means an app that copy the functions and features of a popular app but with another brand).

Steps to submit apps:

1. Go to http://dev.360.cn/, the 360 mobile apps developer platform.
2. Click ‘Submit an app’.
3. Sign in with your 360 account. (Create one if you don’t have.)
4. Click the ‘Developer category’.
5. Choose from personal developer or corporate developer and fill in the information according to the requirements.
6. After you signed up successfully, enter the platform of submit an app or a game. Here I’ll use ‘submit an app’ as an example. Click ‘submit an app’ and then select the category of your app.
7. Go to the page of submit APK, fill in the information according to the notes and then submit your app for review. After it’s reviewed successfully, you will be able to see it in the 360 app store!

If you have built a single page application website, you will know how hard it is to make it SEO ready.

Current practice, webmasters/developers create a “parallel universe” of content. Users with Javascript turn on will see dynamic contents, while users on non-javascript enabled browser (including crawlers) will see content that is static and created offline.

Google have been updating its algorithm on how it will support dynamic web pages (AJAX). Previously we are using the hash-bang approach. Which really doesn’t play well with other crawlers.

For our website, we will be using Prerender.io.

What is Prerender.io? it is a caching service, in which it creates a snapshot of every page on your website. These snapshots are created base on the final output of the page (yes AJAX is supported). This is good if you don’t have enough time to create two approach on your website that generate both dynamic and static pages.

Maybe some of you are confused, got stuck or wondered why the vertical/horizontal alignment of Textview is not working on your desired output. Following are important points and examples that may help you understand how it works:

• Check the parent (LinearLayout) width/height.  Let us assume that you want to positon the TextViews vertically to the center of the LinearLayout. With the layout example below, the gravity and layout_gravity will not work since the parent layout(LinearLayout) height has the same size as of its children(TextViews) and the children have no space for movement.

The User Interface and the resulting User Experience is the critical challenge towards creating a successful mobile application. The User Interface alone can make or break the success of an app. Having a great UI is a must for every mobile application.
