Building and Launching a Top App on Facebook: Social City
Playdom is one of a small group of developers that has created games that have reached millions of daily active users on Facebook within days of launch. This post mortem analyzes how this happens, with a particular focus on the launch strategy and tactics, virality, user lifetime value, cross-promotion, and paid acquisition. One of Playdom's top titles of 2010, Social City, will be the subject for a detailed case study to illustrate these concepts.
