Indexable shareable developer search pages #334

Description

@sajeetharan

Problem

Developer search pages are not designed for public indexing and sharing, which creates poor discoverability and weak linkability for public profiles and searches.

Proposed solution

Create indexable, shareable developer search pages with canonical language/location/topic URLs, SSR metadata, and sitemap constraints. These pages should avoid index bloat and skip private criteria.

Acceptance criteria

  • Canonical language/location/topic URLs.
  • SSR metadata and shareable links.
  • Sitemap constraints and crawl-safe behavior.
  • No indexing of private or gated criteria.
  • Clear handling of duplicate or near-duplicate search states.
  • Documentation for SEO and shareability.

Privacy and trust

Search pages must only expose public, indexable criteria and must never surface private developer lists, hidden availability, or sensitive profile state in metadata.

Dependencies

  • Search URL and canonicalization model.
  • SSR metadata pipeline and sitemap generation.
  • Policy review for public indexing and privacy.
