Server-Side Rendering (SSR)

Rendering web pages on the server before sending HTML to the client, ensuring content is immediately available to crawlers.

Understanding Server-Side Rendering (SSR)

SSR generates full HTML on the server for each request, making content immediately visible to search engines and AI crawlers. Unlike client-side rendering which requires JavaScript execution, SSR ensures AI systems can read your content without rendering delays. Frameworks like Next.js make SSR straightforward for improved SEO and AI visibility.
