After all, it’s easier to maintain with only one version of a website and more time-efficient as you don’t have to verify if the versions for users and Googlebot are identical. Once you’ve weighed up your development resources and technology capabilities, look for opportunities to switch to server-side rendering, so all user agents receive the same content.
