Hi,

Im working on an ecommerce site,I first planned on using node with vuejs, but I think that from SEO it will be a disaster (also saw some one asked you about angular).

Sooo

  1. Is it true that bing and yahoo, will not even rank my site?
  2. Google bot can index js, but from what I read it will take him 2 iterations to get all the content?
  3. Will server side rendering solve this issues or is it still not comparable to php website?
  4. Im also building mobile app for my platform, any suggestion or insights regarding deep links to app? From what I understands the rank depends on the web version of the page? how can I promote deep links?

Thank you !!

Hi Nottiela and thank you for passing by,

Are you obliged to build it with a JS framework ? If yes ok but should be aware of the amount of additional efforts to do to be comparable to non JS website. SSR and dynamic rendering could be a solution. SSR'ed pages are ok.
This solution also comes with risks :

  • SSR server could be a SPOF (Single point of failure)+ If SSR goes down => Googlebot will see empty pages
  • SSR must be well configured (UA, proxy etc)

If your business rely on SEO try to avoid these technologies.

4-Try to link between your website and your App stores pages, put them also on your Schema.org structured data. Yeah ranking depends on the web mobile version (Mobile bot of SE). Do you think about creating a PWA ? :)

Hi ,
Thank you for your answer. I wanted to use JS to save some development time, but I will go with PHP for web.
And I wasn't thinking about pwa , since Im focused on the mobile apps. But this is a very good suggestion, I will definitely use it.

Thank you (:
