Hi fellow authors,

I totally agree with Scott. There will be no long-term success based on
"copy-cat" behaviour.

You need to perform a market research before you even write your first
line of code. Take it from experience... the market comes first, not the
product. There is only one exception to this rule, unless you invent some
breakthrough technology and you're the only one to provide it!

Personally, I always use a simple method to figure out what my future
customers want. For this I use the overture search engine and I also make
some extra search to calculate the profitability ratio. I have compiled
the details of this method within my special report. Free download is
available through this link:

Sincerely,
Mouloud

P.S. I couldn't say better... Fail to plan and you're planning to fail.
