How to make my game appear higher in search results

  1. What do you want to achieve?
    I want my game to appear higher in the search results

  2. What is the issue?
    Currently the game is nowhere to be seen in the search results even when writing it’s exact name into the search bar. I scrolled really far down and used CTRL + F to check that. What’s interesting is that it used to appear before, but just stopped now.

  3. What solutions have you thought of so far?
    I tried to change the name of the game into something that contains more words that people might search (previously Untitled JoJo Game and now it’s JoJo’s Unusual Stand Testing. I also filled out everything I could find in the game settings.

I don’t really need the game to be higher in the search results as of right now since it isn’t even finished yet, but it would be nice to get some people to play it and give suggestions and I saw that similiar games have active players. Is this possible to appear higher in the search results without advertising first?

First, do not add tags. You’re going to get your game shadowbanned if Roblox catches on to this.

You can try to utilise Sponsoring your games, so that it appears on top of search results more easily. Make sure that your game’s icon and thumbnails also have content that directly engages your target audience.

Is it possible to remove a shadowban by removing the tags? Or do I have to copy the original game?

If you were to get a shadowban, Roblox should have told you in a message on why they have done so. Just follow the instructions stated on their message.

Oh Ok cause I had tags in my roblox game and it wouldn’t appear in search but I didn’t get a message from roblox. Thanks

Try reading this Roblox Doc, it states different ways which you can be shadowbanned.
