SEO Test Shows No Detectable Impact For Server-Side Rendering Of Internal Links
https://www.searchpilot.comSearchPilot wanted to test if their performance in search would improve if they replaced links rendered only through JavaScript with static links on the page.
For the test, they used a site in the travel sector, and prior to this test, had two sets of “Popular Flights” links in a JS component. There were two page types being linked to in this component – each tab had links to the top 10 pages for each page type. The links in the first tab were exposed and existed in the source HTML, while the other set of links were hidden behind a tab that was only rendered through JS. They wanted to know whether making the hidden links server-side rendered on the page would improve their organic performance.
The result from this test was that there was no detectable impact!
