JavaScript SEO Problem: Why Your AI-Generated Website Isn’t Getting Indexed
There is a growing trend of “vibe coding” - websites generated by AI prompts that rely heavily on client-side React frameworks. On the surface, these sites function perfectly. A human opens the URL, the JavaScript executes, the DOM populates, and the user experiences a snappy, modern interface.
However, from an infrastructure and SEO standpoint, this approach frequently results in a catastrophic failure to communicate with search engines.
The Technical Reality: Browser vs. Googlebot

Which Web Browser Is the Safest to Use? Chrome vs Edge vs Firefox

Google Dodges a Breakup, But Big Changes Are Coming

Google isn’t getting split up - so Chrome and Android are sticking around under the same roof - but the company does have to give up some of the “exclusive” deals that helped it stay the default search engine pretty much everywhere. On top of that, it’s going to have to share more data with competitors.
