What we see on Microsoft SharePoint sites

What Microsoft SharePoint does well
  • SharePoint public sites are intranet-to-web extensions of enterprise organizations. Content authority is high; these pages carry institutional weight.
  • Brand consistency is enforced at the organization level. We rarely see rogue pages or inconsistent metadata on SharePoint sites -- governance is real.
  • Document and resource depth on SharePoint public sites is unmatched. These sites are reference libraries, not marketing tools.
Common issues
  • Slow LCP from SharePoint's JavaScript framework. The platform wasn't designed for public web performance -- it was designed for internal collaboration.
  • Schema and Open Graph almost entirely absent. SharePoint doesn't prompt for web marketing fundamentals.
  • Navigation structures optimized for internal users, not search engines or first-time visitors.
Things we've noticed
  • SharePoint sites in the public web corpus are almost exclusively large enterprises and government organizations. The consumer-facing web presence is a tiny slice of how SharePoint is actually used.
  • SharePoint sites show the highest rate of internal-navigation-only structure in our corpus. Page architecture designed for employees, not search engines -- low external link density, minimal conversion elements, no blog.
