[Blog + SEO] Ghost, Wordpress or any CMS on subfolder /blog with Bubble

nickhutton13 · 2021-04-17T01:56:04.815Z

I’m finally getting around to trying to fix this, but that blog link doesn’t take me to the blog - has the URL changed?

stephane · 2021-04-20T07:57:42.070Z

@nickhutton13 yes we had issue with Google SEO (page not crawled correctly) and we can’t spend more time hacking bubble to setup a blog so we switched back to our built-in bubble blog…

You can find articles there https://blog.hackerhouse.world

I think there is right solution for this as long as bubble does not allow us to use Cloudflare workers

Ok, fair call! Thanks for helping us try and get through this

To confirm, is this non-viable as of 8/2021?

I need to do something different… I need to put a bubble app into a subfolder of my main site.

i use cloudflare. May I can achieve it with workers?

Yes in the end it was too hacky/dirty to do it. It’s best to complain here then bubble will tell us how they did or let us disable cloud flare acceleration so we can use cloud flare workers properly

Hi boston85719, I am interested in your template to create a blog builder within my existing bubble app. Is that possible to do with the template, or is the template a stand-alone app?
Thanks
Ricardo

Hi @rmaduro

Thanks for your interest and reaching out for clarity.

When you purchase a template you can then ‘integrate’ that template into another application. The process to follow is not complicated but can be a bit time consuming, although much less time consuming than building it out own your own.

The blog builder template usually takes me about 3 hours to integrate into another application, and I would suspect this could be more for somebody less familiar with the template.

If you wanted to purchase the template and use it as the base for beginning a new project that is also possible.

Feel free to reach out via a private message if you have more questions.

Cheers

Matt

Wow, this is immensely disappointing.

Come on, Bubble. I have nearly 30 Web/ mobile apps to launch in the next three years with various cofounders, and I need to be able to do a similar integration with Bubble and WordPress – without using subdomains and/or iframes. I want to use Bubble, but this is a showstopper. I don’t want to use headless WP content pulled into a Bubble page nor a Bubble-based blog

Very surprised SEO isn’t a focus for Bubble. SEO helps apps/business be more profitable and enables us all to be long term partners of Bubble. There must be some technical explanation as to why. @emmanuel

Hi Guys,
I have a question about the subfolder,

I try to show Bubble page on another website with Cloudflare workers.

And my problem is when I click the submit button, create a new thing flow is not working but show alert or show group flow is working with the subfolder.

Do you have a suggestion?

My bubble app link is as a subfolder:

[Solved?][NEW] More Eyes on Website, Improve SEO with Cloudflare Subfolder instead of Subdomain Showcase

Hello all, As you may know, search engine optimization (SEO) on Bubble needs improvements, even after correctly applying the standard SEO settings in Bubble.

The reasoning behind this for SEO and subsequent brief to achievability can be found (1) Cloudflare Part 1 and (2) Cloudflare Link 2. (…

Anything new regarding this Ghost implementation?

johnny · 2022-07-04T06:01:05.107Z

Did anyone find a solution to this yet by chance?

ankit1 · 2022-08-15T18:21:48.737Z

Anyone managed to find a workable solution to solve this ?

stephane · 2022-08-16T16:49:09.020Z

Unfortunately there is currently no workable solution. I’m still sticking with a subdomain blog.

jean-samuel.j · 2022-09-22T17:32:30.730Z

So you know, on a dedicated server the option to disable cloudflare acceleration exists

Also this other thread’s comments might be helpful to this topic

Ya, but don’t you need to start your Bubble project from scratch in order to use it? What about those of us that have already established Bubble apps?

boston85719 · 2023-02-08T07:52:36.608Z

No.

You can integrate the template into any existing bubble app.

Integration is simply copying and pasting from app started from template into existing bubble app.

underhill.dan · 2023-02-08T13:59:46.588Z

Thanks @boston85719 for the reply. Can I simply start a new “Hobby” level application with your template or is there any need to have a paid application to start with it if I’m just copying pieces all over?

I assume I need to replicate the DB as well from the original install? I’m an intermediate user of Bubble, maybe a little more so copying/pasting with some tweaking is fine with me.

THE BIG QUESTION: The main purpose of a blog on my app here is for SEO.

There has been many conversations about Bubble’s ability to be SEO friendly and retain all of the right proper tags needed for good SEO. It seems to be such an issue with many, that they have sought a separate platform completely (such as Webflow, Wix, etc) for their web site and blog, and then point back to their app as a subdomain i.e. app.mybubblesite.com.

These conversations have me looking at the same solution such as moving everything to Webflow and rebuilding the website along with a highly functioning SEO-enabled blog.

How does your template fair with being fully SEO-friendly and have you performed any data-driven tests that verify that all of the content created within your template does indeed perform well from a SEO perspective?

For me I’m willing to rebuild my site, and then build a blog completely on Webflow in order to ensure that I get good SEO recognition. Traffic is of utmost importance and so a little time in this area is fine with me as long as the SEO functions as expected.

Any information you can provide would be great. Thank you kindly.

Best regards,
Dan
