Soundcloud search rankings

Post by Lichee » Thu Aug 22, 2013 2:00 pm

Does anyone have any idea how the soundcloud search engine works with its ranking system? When I search for my name (Munk.) i'm 22nd in the search which is quite far down. I would imagine it would take into consideration relevance to the search query, engagement with the account from users, pro plan etc, but having a read of Soundcloud's blog post on it http://backstage.soundcloud.com/2012/12 ... xperience/ i'm slightly confused. I have a good understanding of SEO in general but if a result is most relevant to the search query and has more regular engagement i.e. followers, listens, likes, shouldn't it be higher in the results? If anyone can shed some light on this i'd appreciate it.

are there any users left on this site that aren't idiots? This is one of the reasons I barely come on this forum anymore, it's a shame.

You come to the off topic board to ask a music related question and you're calling them the idiots?

off topic is described as everything besides dubstep, the search engine rankings of a website are not about dubstep?

anyway mate i don´t see why are you rustling your jimmies, if someone would have known how did that search engine work they would have told you. but as i don´t know it, same as topmo i guess, why not making a joke about it? life is better with some humour

Don't be like that, bud. I just think loads of users on here desperately want to be seen not caring about any sort of popularity. More underground innit

Moist man.

This thread isn't even about music. It's about scripts and coding and other technological jargon familee.

Only if you have less than 50 followers though, after that you're hench enough to stand on your own to feet.
