Show not showing up in searches

hello!

I have a podcast called Booze and Phasers that is all about Star Trek and SciFi. But it doesn't appear in the results when I do a search for Star Trek shows. I know it's not because of the title because a ton of other Star Trek podcasts come up that do not have ST in the title. Star Trek does appear in the Booze and Phasers description and the show notes.

Is there a reason why it wouldn't be showing up in the searches? I'm afraid Star Trek fans aren't going to find our show.

Thanks,

heather

On the whole Search works only on titles. It's never worked on keywords, and I would imagine it's no better on the text in descriptions. I would suggest you add Star Trek to the title, perhaps something like 'Booze and Phasers: A Star Trek Podcast' - I'm sure you can think of something better.

good point. I see now that even though the main titles may not have star trek in them, they do have something like: A Star Trek Podcast after the title.

Thank you so much for your help!
