Stan
By far the best site for selling or licensing code is:
http://www.sellmyapplication.com.
I’ve actually sold several copies of one of my apps as a white label license and was able to generate more revenue from that than actual sales of the app in the app store. The really nice thing about sellmyapplication is that their is no commission on sales (only a small flat fee to list).
Just wish to say your article is as amazing. The clarity to your submit is just excellent and that i can assume you’re knowledgeable on this subject. Well along with your permission allow me to snatch your RSS feed to stay updated with drawing close post. Thanks a million and please continue the enjoyable work.
