Is anyone else frustrated by this?

I’ve been trying to find videos from creators on Fanbase through Google, and it’s like they don’t exist. I can find videos from YouTube, Vimeo, TikTok, and just about every other major platform, but Fanbase videos barely show up—if at all.

I don’t understand it. If a creator makes their content public, why shouldn’t people be able to discover it through Google? Discovery is one of the biggest ways new audiences find creators. If those videos aren’t showing up in search, it feels like creators are missing out on a lot of potential viewers.

I’m not trying to start a conspiracy or blame anyone without proof. I’m just genuinely confused because it doesn’t make much sense from a user’s perspective. As someone trying to support creators, I’d expect Google to surface relevant public videos regardless of the platform they’re hosted on.

Has anyone else noticed this? Is it something Fanbase needs to fix on the technical side, or is Google just not indexing the platform properly? I’d really like to hear from anyone who knows more about SEO or has experienced the same thing.

Right now, it just feels like Fanbase creators are at a disadvantage when it comes to being discovered, and that’s disappointing.
