Wondering about the way youtube playlists show up in search results
- SEO |
Hello all.
I'm wondering about the way youtube playlists appear in search results...
If I search for example for "bryan adams unplugged" without brackets on youtube - I get some results and the 19th result is a playlist called "bryan adams unplugged". An exact match...
Most of the results that appear BEFORE that playlist are for videos(not playlists) without an exact match and not even close.
Same thing happens if I search for "bryan adams unplugged" WITH brackets.
Does it mean that playlists are of much lower priority than videos in search results??
On the other hand - if I do the same search on GOOGLE (both general and video search) I get the playlist with the exact matching title as result number 2 - a video playlist result among other website results.
Usually if I'm not mistaken - if a video appears in google's web search then for the same query this video will definitely be the 1st or 2nd result on YOUTUBE... Am I wrong?
Turns out the for the search "bryan adams unplugged" - the playlist with the exact title appears as number 19 in youtube but as number 2 on google...
Anybody care to try to explain this?
To make things easier to understand:
If I create a video with a very long tail unique title like "car dog cat and lobster having fun in the sun" - it'll show up 1st on youtube if I search for this exact title and it'll also show up on the first page of google as a video result.
If I do the same with a playlist instead of a video - it'll work only with google and not with youtube...
Strange - isn't it?
Thanks!
