Webinar with Google’s Martin Splitt on Rendering and Indexing
https://www.youtube.comIf you are working with JS heavy sites this webinar with Google’s Martin Splitt on how Google handles indexing and rendering is worth a watch, it’s over an hour-long, so get you coffee or whiskey ready before you hit play.
Will try and add key points below in a few days (I have only started listing to it):
- Google’s recent Indexing Issue
- How Google determines what to index
- Partial Indexing and how solving that increased crawl rate
- Google looks at a page’s history while indexing
- Google Caches assets (CSS, JS, images, etc) and also ignored certain scripts (eg: analytics, ad scripts, etc ) while rendering
- How Google handles layout shift when the image dimensions are not in HTML and image returns a 404 while rendering
