Can I share APK download links on my site? i am not hosting these files. I am just sharing links. Is it against adsense policies? I am in doubt as apk files are only a copy of actual android apps.

It's not allowed, as movie streaming site only "share" the link to the hosters, you know what I mean?

Do not share... lest your adsense gets banned!

As a rule of thumb, if you are in doubt about anything that you can or cannot do, its better not to risk it if you want to use AdSense for a long time to come. It's hard to get in again after you get shut down

Did you made those apk? do you have permission to post it?

If yes on both, feel free to add adsense account, if not do not add it.

Analyze once, you do have license to use apk. If not then you will get penalized.

Do not do this activity. Not safe.

Click to expand...

read the TOS of the content you are linking too. If it is free to distribute then yes you can. If you are linking to paid apps but the linking itself is allowed and they are not warez/hacks to the apps you are fine as well. on one of my micro niche sites I link torrents but the file are free to distribute. I also host google ads
