It allows you to check how your website appears when crawled by bots, ensuring that critical elements like text, images, and metadata are properly displayed even before client-side JavaScript executes. This is especially useful for Single Page Applications (SPAs) built with frameworks like React, Angular, or Vue.
- Analyze how your website renders for Googlebot and other crawlers.
- Ensure all essential SEO elements load before client-side rendering.
- Identify rendering issues that might prevent indexing or ranking.
