Hi, I want yo share with you one theory I have about trust and Google Play position of an app.
I really appreciate your opinions on this.
So if you have multiple GP accounts, I bet this accounts don't have any mobile device assigned, location enabled, activity on other apps, etc on it because you my be use some untraceable browser or VM.
Then Google AI can know's this accounts are not from real people, may be they don't ban you because you make things ok but when the bot needs to evaluate your account and compare with another account with a real person account I think Google will choose the real one and they apps get better positioned on GP search results, similar apps, tops, etc.
So my theory is: Google use developer account trust as a ranking parameter.
How did I come up with this?
When Google start to remove my apps massively because the use of "free" word on my apps title (the new GP spam policy) I do some little research and I saw a lot of competitor's app continue using this word without any problem so I started to track this apps. Days passed and this apps continue inmutable using the same word that I was forbidden to use, so I started to think that exists some developer account levels, I already know this concept because on some accounts you get changes published fast and another (with the same change) take days (because a human needs to verify), but I thought this was related only by account strikes, deleted apps, account age, etc (some spam score), not account real or fake value.
Then I started to report this apps because I was very indignant (because I can't use the word and they can, why?) and continue tracking how many days Google took to delete that app from GP. Surprisingly, Google delete some apps very quickly (2 days) and other apps continue without problems, after 2 months, the "inmutable" apps changed they app's title, so I guess Google warn this developers because he trust on it and directly deleted another apps because simply do not trust on they developers.
What do you think about? Thanks
