I guess I'm trying to get the point across that yes I'm trying to make $1m but also helping app devs get discovered. Maybe it's not clear. Is the counter of how much I have sold distracting? I assumed this is what will draw people to the site and once they arrive they'll hopefully do a little browsing and discover apps.

When you say branding message are you talking about the text under the logo? Thanks for message.

I would remove the left rail that shows how much you have sold and what your goal is. I would focus more on drawing attention to the apps themselves.

Have you ever visited http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com/ ? (More page real estate = more money)

Good idea though, good luck. :)

I've thought about removing the counter / goal but really think it draws people to the site to check out how much it's gone up. Maybe I can move it elsewhere and have it smaller and not such a focal point. I'll think again about this :-)

And you have got me thinking that 'more page real estate = more money'. Maybe I can have the logo smaller and the two columns of text next to the logo as a drop down. Thanks for the message / tips! Really appreciate it.
