SEO improvements for public marketplace | Forum

I notice some feature requests in here, so I’m going to have my say on some off the top of my head.

1. Vendor home page in marketplace

Somewhere that the marketplace vendor can link to with all their apps displayed. Maybe even say a little about themselves.

2. Proper HTML links in marketplace / Search engine discovery

Has anyone seen the code for the app marketplace? A lot of links are not actually links, but Javascript click events. Making the marketplace browsable by search engines would be very useful for app findability for all apps.

Also, I use CTRL+Click to open links in new browser tabs (think loads of open tabs). This just isn’t possible unless you are using links.

When it comes to search engine discovery, the marketplace appears to be a closed book unless it’s an app that’s listed on the front page.

3. Allow vendors to update app page text and images

Dunno about you, but I don’t want to wait for someone at monday•com to update my copy and images for me, or even have to do that job.

I’m happy for there to be an approval step if required, but would like change things myself.

4. Marketplace load times

Can this be improved? It’s somewhat slow even on a fast connection

I’m seeing 35MB of content loaded in 188 requests in a total time of around 17 seconds in the developer console.

I see the first contentful paint taking 6.4 seconds.

I can recommend the Lighthouse reports in Chrome developer tools for more info.

Using proper HTML links instead of JavaScript click events is essential for search engine discoverability and user navigation, especially for power users like me who love to CTRL+Click for quick tab opening.

The improved HTML links sound super helpful, especially for those of us who rely on quick access. I remember trying to search for a listing and getting frustrated because the links weren’t working right. Now, being able to CTRL-click will definitely make life easier.I recently needed some marketing help, and after doing a bit of digging, I came across www.elitesolutionsdigital.com. They really turned my project around. Their custom solutions helped me reach more people than I thought possible. It felt great to finally get the visibility I was aiming for.
