Software download station where to go

May mid-April, Baidu's software download station Sky Software Station official revision, not only cut off a large number of misleading ads, the layout of the page to adjust, will be important content after finishing push to the home page, but also replaced the logo for nearly 13 years.

As we all know, the profit model of the download station is very single, basically can only rely on advertising to maintain, so the majority of download stations advertising flying, especially in the display of the download address next to, interspersed with a lot of unrelated advertising links, causing users to delay, download the things they want. Even a very few sites through the virus to profit, provoked netizens complain, the download station gradually lose confidence, the entire download industry are impacted, many download sites are forced to close or transition.

It is revealed that the Sky Software Station the principle of the revision is "refreshing, fast", mainly in the advertising, page layout and so on. At this particular moment, the Sky software Station "cut advertising" action, is to break the industry "unspoken rules" behavior.

The author of the news to cut off a large number of misleading advertising has been tested, search a software, the following figure, download the page of the "temptation to download" does not, the picture has a download instructions, it is also obviously the download of other software, rather than the previous kind of full page is "click to download."

The internet is more and more progress, the traditional download site has gone into the end, because the profit model is too single: page ads, download commission. It is precisely because of this profit model of the single, leading to the development of a large number of downloads in the middle of the site as springing up, competition is too intense, so that the major download sites rely on "temptation to download" to earn a commission. Download Station This mode of the entire download industry dragged into the mire, the industry gradually into the trough, and the new download mode is gradually replacing the traditional download site, I believe the download site will gradually be neglected.

Software Butler

Since 360 security guards in the domestic installed capacity of more and more high, now more than 300 million, other large sites have also provided such services, such as QQ computer Butler, Baidu Computer Butler, Golden Hill guards. All of these assistive software have a function, that is "software warehouse". General users will download the computer butler software, to clean up their computer garbage and optimize the computer system, and this kind of software and no ads, the recommended software is more reliable, which gives netizens what reason to open the browser, enter the Web site, and then download the necessary software for each computer?

Baidu Open Platform

Baidu's "open platform" is a joke, other people's open platform is to send their products to the outside, Baidu's "open platform" is the outside of the product to their own range, so that users can "not enough Baidu", Baidu page Download all the software (here only for the point of view of this article). I do not believe that this approach to other download sites have any advantage, can only say not to those and Baidu cooperation site, you can monopolize that part of the flow, but this is not and Baidu cooperation of the download site is a clear sky thunderbolt, because most of the download station traffic is through search engines, and Baidu in China's search market occupies 80% About the share, basically non-mainstream, small download site can be directly declared closed.

Web site Navigation

Web site navigation in the recent competition is very fierce, but the market share is basically stable, there will be nothing too much change, so that the major web site navigation advertising costs are getting higher. From the previous annual fee to the current monthly fee, in order to facilitate the price can be elevated at any time. Web site navigation is now more and more functions, most of the site navigation will have software downloads, search and Taobao customers and other modules, but also to earn in addition to monthly link advertising fees other than income. And this download than the traditional download station advantage is software comprehensive, find convenient, no ads.

360 Security Desktop

The author predicted that the 360 security desktop would be a big time, because the software was really handy for beginners and mid-level users. But I do not know why this software to bind 360 security guards to use together, and I am not using the 360 security guards, so I have no use of this software. This software can be said to be 360 security guards on the software warehouse has repeated suspicion, but from the creative software, it is still worth our affirmation. It is a pity that Tencent early forecast to this point, directly launched a new version of WebQQ3.0, the limelight early 360 security desktop cover, combined with the above reasons, resulting in this software has no better development.

Software piracy

Back to download the site itself, in order to provide more software to attract users after the visit, download the site will generally include a lot of software, and these software is a lot of pirated software, illegal software, plug-in and so on. These are all related to the law, but this part of the confusion, the temporary no one to control it. If one day, such as the crackdown on film stations, music stations, such as the crackdown on pirated download stations, it is estimated that these large download stations will also be Lok.

Download Web site installed software lost, pirated software removed, and what software are users need? Download station how long can you live? Let the netizens decide.
