Prerender Base44

Pre-rendering for
Base44 apps.

Base44 serves Googlebot and AI crawlers pre-rendered pages from a cache, and only crawlers it recognizes. When a page isn't cached, crawlers get a hidden, auto-written summary instead of your page: a different page from what visitors see, content that arrives late, and pages that never get covered. That's a cloaking risk and an indexing problem.

These guides explain exactly what Base44 serves, show you how to test your own pages, and walk through every way to make sure crawlers get the real thing.

What we measured

186 pages, 47 live Base44 sites, three user agents

We requested every page as a browser, as Googlebot and as GPTBot, then did it again a few minutes later, and tested the render cache the next day. Crawlers only ever get a stored render or the summary, and requesting a page doesn't get it rendered. The full method and results are published on the Base44 SEO Journal.

How it works

What Base44 actually sends to Googlebot and AI crawlers: the hidden summary block, its render cache, which crawlers it recognizes, and how to check your own pages.

Fixes

Ways to make sure every crawler gets your real pages: monitoring, record pages, proxies and pre-rendering services, and moving to server rendering.
