Google is reading your templates, not your data

When Google indexes your pages, it sees

<h1>{{appName}} - {{pageName}} - {{username}}</h1>

or maybe just

<h1></h1>

but you need it to see

<h1>Awesome App - User Profile - Fred James</h1>

Are you going to have to rewrite everything?

The solution is painfully obvious. You just need to write some server-side code to send a javascript-free version of your website to Google. It shouldn't be that hard. It will only require duplicating your entire app. Maybe you can reuse a little code, remove some functionality and only duplicate 50%. Where will you get the resources for this little project?

How much sys admin time are you going to waste on PhantomJS?

You've read about a better solution. You don't have to rewrite any code. You can use PhantomJS to render snap-shots of your pages and serve them to Google.

Sounds easy except...

• PhantomJS keeps crashing and you don't know why.
• This is using a lot more RAM that you thought it would. Now you need more servers.
• It's a little slower than you expected, so Google is penalizing you in its rankings.
• The Google-bot just hammered your site, and you can't generate pages fast enough.

You thought this was going to be awesome.

You picked AngularJS for a reason. It is going to make your app better. You'll be able to develop faster. More releases, more often = more users. And, you'll be able to give those users a better experience. You're helping to usher in a new era of web development.

You want to spend less time worrying about servers, not more.

AngularJS was going to allow you to focus on making a rich browser app. It was going to free you from having logic duplicated across both server and client.

If AngularJS would just work with SEO, everything else would fall into place.

Really, you just need it to work. There has to be a way to get the benefit of Angular that you are seeking without having to compromise. There has to be a way to use AngularJS without fussing with extra servers, headless browsers, or duplicate code, but still get your site listed in Google.
