Have an army of pre-qualified reviewers at the ready. Have them blast the site with comments as soon as your launch is live to game the algorithm and get more traffic. Alternatively, just sit back, hope that people will judge you based on the quality of your product — and be doomed.

- muzani 5y agoI thought PH punishes this behavior. Certain friends of mine used to do this, especially those who are part of a cohort invested by the same group. Somewhat unrelated, I've noticed that my rankings were punished on Google Play despite being organic traffic. There was a sharp drop during the user spike, then it went back up to normal after the initial viral spike subsided. So I've always felt that the launch spikes were something to avoid. Does anyone have experience with this actually working?
