The #1 Reason Your Content Isn’t Getting Views (and How to Solve It)

Most creators pour hours into making content—only to watch it get buried.
The truth? It’s not the content itself. It’s discoverability.

The Problem

Platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram run on algorithms. If your titles, tags, and hashtags aren’t optimized, the algorithm simply doesn’t know who to show your content to. That’s why so many good videos get lost before they even have a chance.

Why It Matters

For creators, distribution is as important as creation. A great video with poor SEO is like shouting in an empty room. The difference between 100 views and 10,000 often comes down to how well your metadata speaks the algorithm’s language.

    This is spot on! The discoverability problem is real - I've seen talented creators struggle because they don't understand the metadata game.

    TurboTags sounds like a practical solution. A few questions:

    1. How does it handle trend-sensitive keywords that change frequently?
    2. Does it provide any analytics on keyword performance over time?
    3. Are there any platform-specific optimizations (e.g., YouTube Shorts vs long-form)?

    The multi-language support is brilliant - that's often overlooked but crucial for global reach. Have you considered adding competitor analysis features to help creators see what's working in their niche?

    Just checked it out and the UX is clean. The instant generation without signup is a smart move for adoption. This could be a game-changer for creators who know their content is good but can't figure out why it's not reaching people.

      Appreciate this a ton 🙌 You’re so right — discoverability really is a metadata game.

      For trends, TurboTags pulls from a constantly updated keyword pool, so results stay fresh (I’m also playing with real-time trending hooks 👀).

      No deep analytics yet, but that’s on the roadmap — thinking lightweight insights first.

      It already tweaks outputs for YouTube Shorts vs long-form, TikTok, Reels, etc. since each platform pushes different signals.

      And yeah, competitor analysis is something I’d love to explore — simple “what’s working in your niche” insights without overcomplicating things.

      Glad you liked the clean/no-signup flow — keeping it simple was the goal 🚀
