Hey @ed727

I genuinely want to understand this a little better - when you say you don’t get a chance of client-side/server-side searching…

So I absolutely think Bubble needs to do a better job of communicating in the [Bubble manual](https://manual.bubble.io/core-resources/data/operations-and-comparisons) about what functions are handled client side vs. server side - that would be a huge help if they communicated particularly what would be handled client-side and I know would have saved me countless hours.

For me it was a huge help to read @petter guide on [Bubble performance](http://forum.bubble.io/t/the-ultimate-guide-to-bubble-performance-156-pages-of-optimizing-tips/125918). Actually I’m pretty sure Bubble reference this somewhere in their documentation which I find interesting 😀

However, when I create apps, understanding how those search operations work I consider that in my database design and then construct my app and searches in such a way that I can handle the heavy lifting on the server. I get that this is a roundabout way and difficult for a new/novice user to do, as I’ve learnt by reading & trial and error. But I guess the point I’m trying to make it that it’s not luck of the draw and there are ways to build your app so this isn’t a problem if you understand the consequences of how you build your app.

Even if you go down the path of a Wordpress site or similar, if you have a massive database you’d always at some point use a third-party service to help speed that up, which of course you can do in Bubble with Algolia fairly easily, or any number of similar services.

So I guess the moral of the story is that there are still ways to optimise for this, no platforms are perfect, but Bubble should take a stronger opinion and provide more guidance in a lot of cases on how they think people should use their product - which I think would save people so much time building apps, but also save server resources.

**On page SEO**

I agree. I think Bubble sees itself as creating the pages behind a login mostly, so this isn’t top priority to solve. But there is a huge opportunity to sell subscriptions to people just looking at building landing pages if they considered this some more.

I remember looking at Webflow in the past to sell memberships to a course and for what I wanted to do it was going to require a Webflow subscription and like 2-3 other paid services to get some Frankenstein setup. All things that would be achieved in Bubble without too much hassle, but I initially didn’t even think of Bubble as it’s not really how they position their product.
