Google Apparently Ranking iTunes App Links Lower Than Normal | Cult of Android

“The search penalty, or search bug if that’s the case, doesn’t seem to affect all apps to the same degree,” reports TechCrunch. “And the rankings also depend on what search terms are used, and whether the user is signed in.”

Logging into your personal Google account will obviously change the way Google presents search results in your browser. But this potentially nefarious activity is being observed when logged out too.
Google changes its search algorithms all the time, and this may just be a bug that will go away in due time. I tried searching “Snapchat iTunes,” and the App Store link was the top result. But there seems to be enough smoke here for there to be fire. Hopefully Google will issue an official statement to clarify the issue.
