How come Lemmy rarely shows up in internet search results? (slrpnk.net)

I'm curious as to why Lemmy rarely shows up in search results on the main internet even if there is a post related to the search input. I've only ever seen a Lemmy result if Lemmy is specified. Is this because we're still relatively small or some other reason?

I've actually started to see some results from Lemmy.world in DuckDuckGo search results.

    What kind of searches?

    I don't remember the exact search, but it had something to do with Star Citizen. A link to a post from that Lemmy.world community was fairly high on a DuckDuckGo search result.

    Along with a few other users, I've posted some useful links and info in the community over there. It looks like that work is starting to pay off.
