How Paragraph optimizes SEO
- Static rendering — all pages are rendered statically for ultra-fast loading and strong crawlability.
- Optimized images — uploaded images are automatically resized, compressed, and blurred before loading to reduce layout shift.
- Shared domain authority — instead of subdomains, your publication lives on the root paragraph.xyz domain, giving your posts the benefit of Paragraph’s overall SEO strength.
- Clean metadata — we auto-generate meta tags, open graph data, and descriptive post slugs. You can override these in post settings for more control.
- Sitemap integration — every publication and post is included in sitemaps, making it easy for crawlers to index your work.
- Core Web Vitals — Paragraph is tuned for CLS, LCP, and other performance metrics that boost rankings.
