# SEO Best Practices

Search Engine Optimization is the practice of fine-tuning the content and presentation of a site to improve the way the pages are indexed by search engines, like Google.

In this section, you will find the solutions provided by the ScandiPWA for managing the way the pages are indexed by search engines. Find below the overview of SEO features supported by ScandiPWA:

| SECTION              | STATUS        | DESCRIPTION                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     |

| Metadata             | **SUPPORTED** | Your store is loaded with places where you can enter keyword-rich metadata to improve the way search engines index your site. Since ScandiPWA is a Single Page Application theme for Magento 2, by default, we introduce the prerender mechanism for search engines to be able to index your site. Learn more about this in [Metadata](/v5.2.0/seo-and-search/seo-best-practices/meta-data.md). |
| Using a Site Map     | **SUPPORTED** | A site map improves the way your store is indexed by search engines and is specifically designed to find pages that might be overlooked by web crawlers. Learn more about this in [Site Maps](/v5.2.0/seo-and-search/seo-best-practices/using-a-site-map.md).                                                                                                                                   |
| Search Engine Robots | **SUPPORTED** | The instructions for web crawlers and bots that index your site are saved in a file called “robots.txt” that resides in the root of your Magento installation. Learn more about it in [Search Engine Robots](/v5.2.0/seo-and-search/seo-best-practices/search-engine-robots.md).                                                                                                                |
