# SEO + javascript rendering

 * Came across this older post that talks about how the javascript rendering may
   be hurting SEO: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/not-seo-friendly-4/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/not-seo-friendly-4/).
   I’m wondering if that is still the case or if how the images are rendered has
   been changed?
 * Thanks.

 * Hello [@qwik3r](https://wordpress.org/support/users/qwik3r/),
 * We haven’t changed the way images are rendered yet, but improving this is a priority
   for us and something we plan to address in the future.
 * Thank you for your patience!
 * Warm regards,

 * Gotcha. So that the post I linked to still accurate in that it can affect SEO?

 * It is not an issue, as per my reply in the topic you linked above.
 * Image indexing doesn’t happen just because an image url can be found and usually
   images are indexed next to text, not standalone.

 * Not to belabor this, but you mentioned that the way the images are rendered by
   the plugin are the reason why they may not be indexed, admitting there is a potential
   SEO issue, but here you’re saying that it’s not an issue? Sorry, just a little
   confused. This will impact whether I purchase the plugin so a definitive answer
   would be appreciated.

 * Gotcha – at that point in time, I fairly believed that to be true, but it’s definitely
   not. My knowledge at that point in time was lacking. 
   Think of the multitude 
   of CMSs that output in JS on the frontend and/or use JS completely to render 
   any part of a website. Or, an even simpler example, websites that rely on JS 
   to perform a lazyLoad operation on an image. The definitive answer is – in no
   way should the way we handle image loading interfere with the ability to have
   said images indexed. I really hope this helps and I’m sorry I wasn’t clearer 
   in my previous reply. All the best,/Cristian.

 * Gotcha. Thanks for clarifying. Do you know of a good way to test this? Just in
   general?
 * Thanks.

   I’ve found and I’ve bookmarked myself for this topic is: [https://brodieclark.com/foot-locker-image-seo/](https://brodieclark.com/foot-locker-image-seo/)
   
   I hope this helps!/Cristian.
