SEO and performance

Behind-the-scenes work.

OG images

Tag pages and profile pages generate their own Open Graph images now. When you share a link, it looks good in Slack, Twitter, LinkedIn.

Structured data

Every public page has proper schema.org JSON-LD markup. Profiles, tags, the homepage, individual posts. Search engines can parse all of it now.

Canonical URLs

Canonical tags and absolute OG image URLs across the board. Duplicate content issues should be gone.

PWA

Web app manifest, app icons, mobile-friendly metadata. Add Hashnode to your phone's home screen and it behaves like a native app.

Database work

The queries behind trending bloggers and trending tags were slow. We rewrote them. The homepage is noticeably faster.
