Good place to promote your iPhone or iPad app

"Hit the Deck Baseball" for the iPad has been available on iTunes for about 2 weeks.
It ranked above 100 for several days at the start, but gradually started moving down the ranks.
When HTD when below rank 200 it really started falling, then at rank 300, it was all over. Sales really
fell off.

At this time, I have not promoted HTD Baseball at all, I wanted to wait until HTD Baseball for the iPhone was
available on iTunes(should be next Friday, submitted yesterday), but since HTD was not selling very good, I
decided to promote HTD on one site, that site was "Touch Arcade" forums. So yesterday HTD was ranked around 400,
after adding HTD to Touch Arcade forums and giving out promo codes, the game jumped above 100 again within hours
and sales picked up. Also got some good reviews.

First I added HTD to this Touch Arcade forum (your game's before and after pics)

Then I added here and gave promo codes (iPad games):
