Dynamic Rendering: The Solution for Visitors and Search Engines
Client-Side Rendering
When a user visits a JavaScript site, their browser downloads several files and executes the code to figure out how the page should look. This is called client-side rendering because it uses the computing power of the client device.
That’s fine for most human users, but search engine crawlers move quickly, learning as much as possible without using up their computing resources. So when they find a JavaScript site, they might read only a few pages and get an incomplete picture of it.
Server-Side Rendering
Crawlers also have a second queue for rendering, adding JavaScript sites to the index too late, resulting in poor rankings.
JavaScript sites can be rendered on the server side instead, but doing so is hard work for the server, can be tricky and produce slow or lost interactive elements.
Dynamic Rendering
That’s where dynamic rendering comes in. The server can distinguish between human and robot, giving the human the full experience and the robot a lightweight HTML version.
Dynamic rendering is preferred by search engines and comes without an SEO penalty for cloaking content, making it the clear best choice.

Before using Prerender®, our site had challenges with crawling and our pages were largely not indexed due to the site being a single-page app using AngularJS. Most of the options we looked at required an extensive amount of work, which also translated to very high costs. Prerender® provided an easy to use and effective solution to the problem. Within days of integrating with Prerender®, we immediately saw tens of thousands of our pages being crawled and indexed by Google. Our organic traffic naturally saw a very steady increase over the next few months. Prerender's support was great and responsive in the rare instances that we needed it.
