Ask HN: Best way of marketing iOS apps?

3 points by lewisgodowski ↗ HN
My friend and I are developing an iPhone app and were curious, for those of you who have submitted to the App Store, what methods of marketing have you tried? What's worked and what hasn't? If it helps, it's a basic camera app aimed towards the "hip teenager" demographic that uses Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, etc. Thanks!

Buy your way into the top lists with augmented downloads and ratings. Because that is what the competition is doing.
Right, it's sad that's what it's come down to these days. Any tips if we don't have a large budget for that?
Tell lifehacker or other popular blogs about your app?
