“Since we introduced Alexa in India last year, thousands of developers have published informative and engaging skills on the India store. In just over a year, the number of skills available for customers has doubled from 10,000 to more than 20,000,” said Dilip R.S., Country Manager for Alexa Skills, Amazon India. “We’re focused on enabling developers to create even more useful and engaging experiences for our customers, and we’re excited to see what experiences the developer community creates next.”
If you are a developer and want to know how to create engaging skills for the Indian audience, Amazon has some tips to offer for
improving their existing skills and
best practices to promote their Alexa skills and reach more customers. If a skill qualifies for the reward, its developer will receive an email from the Alexa team. The email will cover the next steps for registration and payment account setup. Developers must make sure their country/region is correctly set to India in the
profile section on the Amazon developer portal.
Once the skill you developed is qualified for the reward program, the developer will receive an email from the Alexa team. The email will guide you through the next steps for registration and payment account setup. If you are an Indian developer coding skills for the Indian market, be sure to mark the country/region correctly to India in the profile section on the Amazon developer portal.
I have read many success stories of developers in the Alexa blog page, so if you are a developer and had success in the Alexa skill market, do drop us a mail and share your experience.
