In a big leap forward, progressive web apps combine the power of web and mobile apps. This is an important progression as more than half of web browsing is done via mobile. And, increasingly, people expect a cohesive experience regardless of whether they’re on a phone, a computer, a tablet, or Apple Watch. But as seamless as PWAs make the user experience, they do present challenges to brands. We’ll help you clear the hurdles and realise the results you need with advanced progressive web app optimisation.
One of the challenges presented by PWAs is that they depend on Javascript, an advanced language that enables extensive functionality. The problem is it’s difficult for Google to render, crawl, and index these sites - and this can impact your rank. Not on our watch.
Unlike websites, PWAs use dynamic content within a static application. This delivers the latest information to users from a single point - but it also poses difficulties in terms of creating indexable on-page content. Our techniques, including server-side rendering, allow you to overcome, perform, and succeed.
Web apps are nothing new; they have allowed developers to create sites that look, feel, and act like apps. Progressive web apps are the next generation. Think of them as a more advanced version of a typical website, with features you associate with apps. A typical website is accessible only via a browser; a PWA can be accessed via URL or by adding it to your device (e.g. through an app store).
