URL indexed but not submitted in sitemap, however the URL is in the sitemap
Hi there, I can't answer all of your questions but Google literally announced we can delete old sitemaps in new search console now: https://www.searchenginejournal.com/google-updates-the-sitemaps-report-in-search-console-adds-ability-to-delete-sitemaps/299495/ With this feature available, there's definitely more opportunities to test a few more sitemap submissions and to verify that all urls have been crawled. If you could cross-reference this with serverlogs you would definitely be on to a winner; although to be fair Googlebot crawling a URL doesn't automatically mean indexation! Good luck, Nick

SSR for SPA
Hi there, This is a tremendously complicated question to answer I'm afraid The best thing I could advise you to do is to use Google Search Console and do some fetch and renders as Google. Here are my thoughts: **Because SEO is critical to us, should we try to force SSR after a click ? ** Correct me if I'm wrong, but you basically mean, create additional page? If that's the case, then creating "static" pages would have make a lot of sense if you want to rank for these keywords. **How does the robot opens links ? Is it : open new tab behavior ? Because this would trigger SSR on our side. ** I'd suspect your best bet would be a combination of fetch and render from Search Console and checking your server logs; I don't personally think the "open new tab" behaviour is relevant here as a robot crawls the site after all. Hopefully this starts the discussion so someone else can give you a better answer. Nick
