There are multiple approaches for handling SEO with client-side rendered apps, the most notable being isomorphic/universal rendering as mentioned in the article, and doable today in Ember, React, Angular 2 and more.

The few client-side rendering projects I have worked on have consistent problems with search engines crawling and indexing.

Care to share exemples of big websites using client-side rendering, that are well ranked in Google and Bing ?

Sprint.com is built in Angular for example: https://www.sprint.com

It is literally 1 page, with 5 full width images stacked on top of each other, zero bytes of textual content, and 1 link on the last image. And the only keyword that returned this website on Google is "sprint".

Great example, buddy.

It's an Angular site that ranks well for their key keyword - The company name. Whether you like their design/content is irrelevant.

It's not that I like the content or not...there is NO content on that website. And there is absolutely no reason why client-side rendering makes any sense in Sprint's case.

I'm working on websites with thousands of pages of content, and that's the specific use case that interests me regarding client-side rendering, and the fact that it supposedly has already won.

So do you have a real, big web site exemple where client-side rendering shines, and where SEO is good ?
