Technical limitations of iFrames
iFrames traditionally entail several technical disadvantages:
Tracking: Cookies and conversion events can only be captured to a limited extent.
SEO: Content within an iFrame is not attributed to your domain by search engines like Google, which reduces visibility.
Accessibility: iFrames make it difficult to implement an accessible user experience.
Benefits of integration via the softgarden API
The softgarden API helps you overcome these hurdles and offers numerous advantages:
Custom design: You have the freedom to design the layout and appearance of your career site and fully align it with your corporate branding.
Optimized tracking: Since most traffic occurs on your own URLs, there are no restrictions on using your tracking tools (e.g., Google Analytics, Matomo, Tag Manager).
SEO benefits: Job postings are served directly on your domain, making them optimally indexable for search engines.
Accessibility: The API integration enables better implementation of accessibility standards (e.g., WCAG-compliant navigation and screen reader support)
Flexibility: Content can be dynamically integrated and expanded without the typical limitations associated with iFrames.
