How to register Windows Phone marketplace

Windows Phone 7 has been listed overseas for more than a month. In addition to providing excellent consumer experience, it also brings great convenience to developers. You can use Silverlight for Windows Phone to quickly develop various applications on Windows Phone 7. Instead, you can use the xNa platform to develop brilliant games. Because Windows Phone 7 is not listed in China, the corresponding marketplace is not available in mainland China. For the majority of developers, it is painful to release their own programs for everyone to use and there is no way to go.

Well, there is no way to register an account, but it is difficult to submit the registration fee of $99 and finally submit your own collection account. Let's talk about how to register a Windows Phone marketplace (APP hub) account from the beginning.
Preparation: 1. Prepare a Windows Live ID, which you will need to use to manage your submitted applications.
2. Find a friend in a country/region where marketplace is open and ask him to help you pay the registration fee of $99. If you do not have this condition, the next one is very important to you:
3. For students, the registration fee of $99 can be waived. The premise is that you need to join the dreamspark program and pass its verification. It is easy to pass dreamspark verification. You only need an email address ending with Edu. You can also download many genuine Microsoft software through the dreamspark program. In principle, only students can join the plan,... You know...
4. Prepare a collection account in the country/region where you want to register a marketplace (this step can be processed after you register an account ). Just discovered that China Merchants Bank supports direct activation of the China Merchants Bank account in Hong Kong in China. If you want to register an app hub account in Hong Kong, try again.
Step: 1. Go to the app hub homepage and log on with the Windows Live ID.
2. Follow the instructions in this document to complete registration.
3. After registration, you will receive an email to verify your email address. Don't forget to click the URL provided by it to verify your email address.
4. Write your first Windows Phone 7 program and follow the steps indicated in this document to submit your first application to marketplace.
5. You will receive a verification email from geotrust asking you to provide proof of photo ID. The name on your photo ID should be the same as that entered during registration.
6. After the geotrust verification is passed, your program will be released if it meets the specifications.
7. Now you can use your Windows Live ID to unlock your Windows Phone and deploy the app up. But don't forget, your account can only unlock three mobile phones, and each mobile phone can only install 10 programs through the side loading method.
8. Finally, if you want to sell money by software, don't forget to submit the receipt account and other information (it seems there is a W-8 form to fill in ).
