@mac2@melanie.mckelvey I’m not a Bubble SEO expert, but I worked in sales and marketing at Google and used to offer digital marketing services before building apps full-time. I’d be happy to take a look at both your apps and share checklist items for free if you’re interested.
At Bootstrapped, we have 77 Bubble experts with SEO experience. I’d be happy to hop on a call with you to see if we can find someone that meet your needs: Calendly - William Hawkins.
A couple things to know about Bubble and SEO. While Bubble has systems for handling all the normal aspects of SEO ranking (indexing, internal linking, header tag hierarchies, etc.). The Bubble Manual describes all this very well at SEO | Bubble Docs.
However, there is one crucial reason most SEO experts use Webflow or Framer for SEO heavy content: page load speed. You see, the javascript files Bubble loads on page load for every Bubble app (see attached: dynamic.js, early.js, pre_run_jquery.js, run.css, run.js, static.js) cannot be optimized beyond what Bubble has already done behind the scenes. They’re working on this, but it’s still a known limitation compared to static HTML + CSS page load speeds.
Additionally, you only have limited control over lazy loading techniques for large files or hero images (always use the most highly compressed formats for images, such as avif or webp). And plugins always load any javascript they require on page load as well (so delete all non-essential plugins). Furthermore, Bubble apps slow down over time as you iterate on your app. So run “optimize application” on a regular basis to clean up unused images, styles, option set values, etc. So, on the one hand, there is only so much you can optimize the page load speed of any Bubble page compared to a static HTML+CSS setup, and this affects SEO ranking (a lot).
All of that being said, we have had some real success building SEO structures on Bubble, so book a call if you’d like to discuss how in more detail.
