Renderproxy

Hi everyone 👋🏼, The idea for Renderproxy came to me while at work. Our website (https://0x.org/) is completely written in React and was having some SEO issues. Single Page Apps have a hard time being crawled by search engine bots, and one way to fix this is to implement dynamic rendering (https://developers.google.com/se...), such that bots get served up a pre-rendered version of your site. Google recommends this. Looking online, I was hoping to find something like Renderproxy, but all the solutions I found required me to run my own server, or switch hosting providers. We ended up implementing our own custom solution. With this solution, all you need to do is sign up for Renderproxy, and change your DNS settings. Along the way, I realized it could do other cool things, like get you free custom domains to sites you've built with website builders. In general, it is the easiest and fastest way to set up a reverse proxy that I've seen. Pro tip: You can hook it up to Cloudflare and save on usage costs. It sends the right headers so that even when you're using a CDN, bots will get the pre-rendered site, and your users will get the regular site. Any feedback is greatly appreciated! 🙏🏻 Thanks!

This looks great--love that it is so easy to set up. Also, the free custom domain is a nice added bonus that makes the low subscription fee pay off immediately.

This is awesome! OKRs.app is now running on Renderproxy 😎 Thanks for building this @francescoagosti !

All our portfolio companies running content-marketing strategies have been optimizing their SPAs in exactly this way but it’s always a drain on engineering resources - great to see a turnkey solution built for this, keep it up 💪

Hi! Did You worked around somehow google anti cloaking protection? (https://support.google.com/webma...) i know that sometimes the google crawler uses a common user agent to see if servers are serving different content and if thats the case, it gets penalized

Hey @francescoagosti! Is this project still live? Site seems to be down.
