How to promote an app?

I'm just an individual developer, who doesn't have much money for promotion.

I recommend using Youtube videos.

Don't make a video introducing your app which users find boring or commercial.

Instead, make a fun demo video. Use your creativity.

There are many app developers who develop the app and want to promotes them but there is a big amount of money they need to spend.

If you also want to promote your app without spending a penny here I am giving you some important trick.

Well actually nothing comes for free nowadays so you need to put in lots of effort and it will take some time in order to gain heavy downloads.

As a marketing person in one of the renowned mobile app development company, I follow some tricks that you must use to get the downloads.

ASO Optimization.
ASO is important but Google play only lists the top 250 results.
Promote your app on Reddit.
Promote your app on forums like AndroidCentral, XDA developers forum, etc.
Answer the relevant questions to the app you made on Quora.
Join groups on Facebook share your app there.
Promote app on Twitter, Pinterest, Google+ community.
create a very nice app promotion video and send it to each and every channel.

Doing all these will surely increase your downloads and your app will be featured in the top list of google play searches. This is what all other people are doing but you need to give continuous efforts for some months.

So Start doing this and let me know if you need any help.
