The built-in SEO feature in Manus is a powerful tool designed to improve your web app’s visibility on search engines like Google. It automatically makes your Manus-built websites more search-engine-friendly, helping you attract more organic traffic. The system works by generating a prerendered, static HTML version of your site specifically for search engine bots. This ensures that your content can be easily crawled, indexed, and ranked, while your human visitors continue to enjoy the rich, interactive experience you designed.

FAQ

Not at all. These features are designed to automate the most complex technical aspects of SEO, so you can improve your ranking without being an expert. The dashboard provides simple, clear guidance, and the AI-powered “Optimize with Manus” feature can handle the implementation for you.
It doesn’t. The prerendered version of your site is only served to search engine bots. Your human visitors will continue to experience the fast, dynamic version of your site exactly as you designed it.
Manus does not currently support a “Private Publish” option. However, without enabling SEO optimization, your site will be much harder for search engines to discover and index effectively. For restricted access, you can share your project via email with specific visitors or publish it within your team.
