Google bot does crawl the dynamically generated content, but I haven’t looked into any other search engines, so can’t comment about them. @sridharan.s seems fairly knowledgeable about SEO stuff, so perhaps he has some insights?
Interesting.
I do agree about the free testers, that the crawlers are low quality so the results vary.
But I’ve tried using some more professional tools and its still hit and miss unfortunately, not detecting the schema of headings and images (inc alt tags).
Would be good to hear some more in depth analysis on bigger sites and SEO success there.
@sudsy, I understand the math and algorithms behind SEO along with many SEO best practices. That said, the code level implementation of SEO is not my core area of expertise.
What I can say is our site’s content seems to be picked up correctly by Google and the SEO Test Tools I’ve used (haven’t looked at Bing, etc.). I’ve had an SEO Consultant friend of mine review our site to provide suggestions as well and he verified that what we’re doing with Bubble should work well.
Additionally, I assume the crawlers for Google, Bing, etc. have had at least 100x more resources put into them than any of the free test / crawler tools so I’d imagine if at lease some of these tools are getting it right then the main search engines should have no problem whatsoever.
Note - we’re on a dedicated server so we’re not running the newest version of Bubble. If Bubble has a temporary bug with header tags then it doesn’t impact us since we’re not using that version of Bubble. Just FYI since your mileage may vary.
@luke2 Our team is reviewing your bug report and will respond shortly.
I’ve heard back from the Bubble team after they had reviewed the issue raised:
Some tests are not sophisticated enough to handle client side javascript generated pages. The header tag is being set, which you can see if you inspect the element. Thus, it is working with Google, etc.
As a few other posters had summarised, some tools simply don’t offer the ability to detect on-page tags.
Unfortunately a few premium tools I use to generate reports of pages do flag that there are missing H tags and alt tags, so in the reports these misrepresent the actual optimisations. But perhaps overtime as the web world landscapes shifts more to JavaScript, they will adopt better tech for scanning dynamically generated page schema.
Thanks for everyone’s input. Its an important subject and glad we’ve found a resolution.
