Okay guys,so my new app which is a calculator apphttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=calc.calculator.scientific.scientific_calculator
has 4500 downloads. and is in the trending position in India.
It came into trending app on 19th of this month(june)
Now ,the only source of downloads for my app has been facebook groups.
Now facebook banned me so I wont be able to test if posting more and getting attention causes any more change in the trending ranks .
Link of the app being created at many places.
People installing my app from many places on facebook.(it can be easily tracked by google have u checked that when u click on a link in facebook,it is redirected first)
The posts containing the link of my app getting a lot of upvotes and comments.
These all factors might have kicked in for google’s algorithm to pick up my app and place it in the trending.

It’s possible that Facebook flagged you as a spammer. That can happen sometimes, especially to new accounts that don’t have a lot of history. A lot of these big online businesses are starting to operate this way. It sucks, but that’s the way it is.
It was trending in many countries i guess,not sure
What are you talking about ?
