W3i delivered more than 80,000 app installations in a day to one developer
App installation and monetisation specialist W3i claims revenues at the firm have risen 330 percent during its most recent quarter, with the firm enjoying particular success driving users to apps.

Speaking to VentureBeat, co-founder and VP Rob Weber revealed that, in one case, W3i was able to generate more than 80,000 app installations for one developer in just one day.

Numbers up

"W3i has established itself as a platform-agnostic service that connects users to great apps, regardless of whether they're on a mobile phone, a tablet, or a computer," Weber told the stie.

"Over the last 18 months, we've increased our focus on mobile, and it’s paying off. This shows the market is hungry for a company like W3i, which will go above and beyond to ensure our partners’ success."

As a result of such success – the firm's network reaching more than 13.7 million daily active users across iOS and Android - W3i's head count has jumped from 76 to 131 during the course of the past year, with more positions available at the company's San Francisco office – itself currently sitting on six employees.

Expansion has also taken the form of investment, too, with W3i using its $10 million AppX fund to pump a total of $2.3 million in 16 early stage mobile developers to date.
