Backendless Web App SEO

General
1

Can someone please explain how Backendless handles SEO or URL addresses for Web Apps? Thanks!

The URL scheme in an application created with Backendless UI Builder has the following structure:

http://your-custom-domain-name/directory-where-you-published-the-app/index.html?page=pagename

where:

  • your-custom-domain-name - is the domain name you assigned to your backendless application. If you didn’t do that, then it will be backendlessappcontent.com/APP-ID/API-KEY
  • directory-where-you-published-the-app - when you publish an app in UI Builder, you are prompted to select a directory. If the directory is web, then this value is blank
  • pagename - name of the page in UI Builder. If the page is the landing page, then this parameter is not present.

Regards,
Mark

Hi @mark-piller

Just stumbled across this when looking into SEO for backendless.

Is there anywhere to set the standard seo attributes such as Page Title (maybe pagename does this, but if landing page how do we get around this?) and Description? Also is there a way to assign alt tags to images?

Thanks
