Using Advanced SEO Support for AI Studio
Overview
Advanced SEO Support for AI Studio enhances the visibility of your published sites for search engines, social media platforms, and AI crawlers. This feature is specifically designed for sites built within AI Studio, which are typically Single-Page Applications (SPAs). While SPAs provide a fast experience for human visitors, they can appear as empty or incomplete to automated bots that rely on JavaScript to load content. Advanced SEO Support addresses this by serving pre-rendered HTML to these bots, ensuring your content is properly indexed and displayed.
Key Features
Advanced SEO Support includes several powerful tools to boost your site's online presence.
Pre-render SEO
This feature delivers a fully rendered version of your page to supported bots instead of the basic SPA framework. It ensures that search engines and AI crawlers can immediately access your page content, metadata, images, and structured data, leading to faster indexing and more accurate search results. This functionality is only available for published projects that have a custom domain connected.
Social Media & Link Previews
When you share a link from your site on platforms like Facebook or LinkedIn, Advanced SEO Support ensures that the correct title, description, and preview image are displayed. This prevents generic or blank previews and allows each page to have its own unique social media representation.
Sitemap Generation
A sitemap is automatically generated, making it easier for search engines to discover and catalog all the important pages on your site, improving overall crawl efficiency.
How to Enable Advanced SEO Support
To activate Advanced SEO Support for your AI Studio project, follow these steps. Please ensure your project is already published and has a custom domain set as the primary domain.
- Inside your AI Studio project, click the project name dropdown in the top-left corner of the screen.
- Select Settings from the dropdown menu.
- In the left sidebar, click on SEO.
- Click the toggle to Enable Advanced SEO Support. The toggle will change color to indicate it is active.
- Re-publish your project to ensure the latest changes are available to bots.
Improving Social Preview Content
You can use the AI assistant to help generate optimized social media metadata for your pages.
- Navigate to your project's Settings and open the SEO section.
- Locate the option labeled Improve social preview content and click Copy prompt.
- Paste the copied prompt into the AI Studio chat interface.
- The AI will provide a summary of the updates it suggests for your social previews.
Once Advanced SEO Support is enabled, these optimized tags will be included in the pre-rendered HTML, ensuring they are correctly read by social media platforms.
Important Notes
- AI Studio is a Labs feature and must be enabled for your sub-account before you can use it.
- Pre-rendered pages are served from a global edge network, typically in under 10 milliseconds, ensuring no performance impact for your visitors.
- The system automatically refreshes the cache whenever you publish changes or update your domain.
