On a website/server/architecture level, how do you make your site crawlable, renderable, and indexable by search engines.

RAW HTML

• No Javascript executed
• No external resources fetched
• If it finds any link, it puts it in the crawl queue

Our site begins as a URL, it gets crawled, rendered and indexed. And at some point, it needs to be retrieved as soon as our site answers the query of some kind of searcher.

If Google is not able to find all the pages on your site, render them correctly, understand what they're about, and index them properly, you're never going to get served, ranked, or end up with a click.

Make your site easy for google to crawl

How to lower the crawl depth

• Increase your internal links, so you can more easily reach key pages within your content
• Increase page size of pagination, within reason. Always keep the user in mind
• Prefer to link to your canonical URL internally, meaning no inconsistent trailing slashes on internal links, insecure links, www, anything that could cause that extra hop
• Link key pages from the homepage if it makes sense because it is where fresh crawl begins

Note 1: Google follows actual links, but it does not interact with your page. It means that content accessible via infinite scroll or search input only won't be crawled.
