rendering-strategies
When the user wants to choose or optimize rendering strategy for SEO. Also use when the user mentions "SSR," "SSG," "CSR," "ISR," "static rendering," "dynamic rendering," "server-side rendering," "client-side rendering," "JavaScript rendering," "pre-rendering," "prerender," "content in initial HTML," or "crawler visibility." For crawl issues, use site-crawlability.
npx skills add kostja94/marketing-skills --skill rendering-strategies --agent cursor
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, codex, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# SEO Technical: Rendering Strategies Guides rendering strategy selection and optimization for search engine and AI crawler visibility. **Golden rule**: Page data and metadata must be available on page load without JavaScript execution for optimal SEO. **When invoking**: On **first use**, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On **subsequent use** or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output. ## Scope (Technical SEO) - **Static vs dynamic**: SSG, SSR, ISR, CSR; when to use each - **Crawler behavior**: Googlebot renders JS (with delays); AI crawlers do not - **Component-level**: Content in initial HTML; tabs, carousels, nav - **Dynamic rendering**: Prerender for bots when full SSR/SSG is not feasible ## Rendering Methods | Method | When HTML generated | SEO | Best for | |--------|---------------------|-----|----------| | **SSG** (Static Site Generation) | Build time | ✅ Best | Blog, docs, marketing pages; content rarely changes | | **SSR** (Server-Side Rendering) | Request time | ✅ Good | News, product pages; dynamic, personalized content | | **ISR** (Incremental Static Regeneration) | Build +

How do I install it?

Where does this skill come from?
From kostja94/marketing-skills, a repository with 848 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
