SEO.js for Node.js

Welcome to SEO.js for Node.js! SEO.js makes your BackboneJS, AngularJS or EmberJS apps crawlable by Google to make them appear in search results. Integrating it to your Node.js (read: Express.js) application is easy.

Installation

To get started with seojs install the express-seojs package:

$ npm install express-seojs --save

Next you need an API token. To get it sign up at http://getseojs.com/. While you're there add your site in the dashboard so the snapshots can already be prepared.

In your Node.js app you need to include the SEO.js middleware in the initialization section:

var seojs = require('express-seojs');
app.use(seojs('your_secret_api_token'));

After this your app.js probably looks something like this:

...
var app = express();
 
// all environments
app.set('port', process.env.PORT || 4000);
app.set('views', __dirname + '/views');
app.set('view engine', 'ejs');
app.use(express.favicon());
app.use(express.logger('dev'));
 
var seojs = require('express-seojs');
app.use(seojs('your_secret_api_token'));
 
app.use(express.bodyParser());
app.use(express.methodOverride());
...

That's it! Requests to your app containing the _escaped_fragment_ query parameter will now be forwarded to the SEO.js CDN where HTML snapshots of your pages are kept. To tell search engines to look for these snapshots you need to add the fragment meta tag to the head section of your views (maybe at views/index.ejs if you're using ejs as the view engine):

<head>
  <meta name="fragment" content="!">
  ...
</head>

This method works both with HTML5 pushState URLs as well as Hashbang URLs (/some/action#!route)
