In this episode, Jeff Whelpley, Google Developer Expert in Angular, shares his expansive knowledge of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) with panelists Aaron Frost, Alyssa Nicol, Brian Love, and Jennifer Wadella. We talk about some of the basics of on-page optimizations such as Time to Interactive, First Meaningful Paint, etc. and the implications for Angular applications.

Angular applications, in the context of the browser, are client-based and are built in the browser at runtime. While this provides many benefits to the user experience, it also comes with several challenges for SEO. Aaron and Jeff share some insight into these challenges, as well as the current solutions, including Scully for static prerendering and Angular Universal for server-side rendering.

Finally, Jeff shares with us what Angular developers can do to optimize their applications for improved search engine result page rankings, including duplicated content, meta information, interlinking pages, crawl budgets, indexing, inbound links to leaf pages, and more.
