A new Facebook application offers ordinary users the opportunity to build their own applications.
App Bank has a simple and intuitive interface which means that non-programmers now have the tools build a Facebook app themselves without engaging the services of a professional.
AppBank is free to use and even pays people to create applications with it. According to AppBank their top-earner makes $769 a month. At the moment only users in the USA and Canada can take advantage of the revenue stream from Facebook advertising but that is sure to change in the future.
Whilst AppBank provides the tools to build a facebook app, there will be many businesses where they will still want to hire someone to do this for them. This will enable new companies to provide these development services where ideas people don’t need costly programmers to build their envisioned application.
If you want a Facebook application created for your company, get in touch with Simon Says Media.
