Here are some practices that may help your Vimeo page or videos display on third-party search engines. 

• Give your video an accurate and concise title, a detailed description, and an appropriate set of search tags containing only the most relevant keywords that pertain to your video. 
  • This helps ensure that it can be effectively indexed in Vimeo’s search engine as well as external search engines like Google or Bing.
• Link your content from any websites or social media accounts that you have to help boost viewer engagement.
