HotCloud Mobile, Inc. Developing "App Cloud" Platform to Serve Up Proprietary Content
HotCloud Mobile, Inc. (OTCBB: HOTM), a vertically integrated wireless telecommunications company that operates three business units: products; services; and content, stated today that it is developing a cloud-based platform to host proprietary content that it intends to push to smartphones, tablets and wireless devices purchased through HotCloudMobile.com and Stars Wireless, Inc.
"We previously announced that we are planning to aggressively pursue the creation of value-added apps designed for smartphones, and that the first step in this process was our partnership with MacroSolve," stated Mr. David J. Bleeden, CEO of HotCloud Mobile, Inc. "The 'App Cloud' concept will allow us to monetize these apps by offering our customers a 'channel' from which they can customize and create the content that they want. It's similar to a cable television network, where the customer chooses the channels they wish to subscribe to."
Mr. Bleeden continued, "As I've stated in past releases, the major cellular carriers are requiring data plans with smartphone purchases now. Offering our customers a platform that they can use to select the apps they want and subscribe directly from the phone gives us the same advantages as the bigger players in the space. So when a customer buys a phone from HotCloud or Stars, they get access to all of our content, plus the content available in the Apple App store, the Android Market and BlackBerry App World.
"The apps we're developing are 'sticky' apps; content that will keep users engaged and interested. The markets we will address are what we consider 'viral' markets where the opportunity exists to generate recurring revenue for the Company," added Mr. Bleeden.
