SSR (Server-Side Rendering)

Quick Definition

SSR generates HTML on the server before sending it to the browser, ensuring search engines see complete content immediately.

In context

Frameworks like Next.js, Nuxt, and SvelteKit make SSR easy. SSR is the safest choice for any content that needs to rank, especially for sites built with React or Vue.
