If I create a GoVideo recording, will it be accessible to the public?

Overview

As a Vidyard GoVideo user, you may wonder if any of the videos that you create will be accessible to the public, via search engines or other methods.

Answer

Vidyard GoVideo content will not be listed on any search engines by default.

However, if you posted the sharing URL into a website that is being crawled by search engines, then chances are that it will detect the link and then list it. For example, if you placed the sharing link on a web forum and that content is listed in Google, then it would show up when searched.

Sharing the video to YouTube or other social channels will also cause Google and other search engines to list the video.

If you want to guarantee that the content will not be accessible to anyone but certain individuals, then you may consider GoVideo Enterprise which can provide security features such as IP Whitelisting, Sharing Page SSO and Player Access Codes.
