How Public Projects Work in Div-idy
When you make a project public in Div-idy, it becomes part of the platform. Public projects are indexed, searchable, and published so others can discover and use them.
Quick Answer
Public projects in Div-idy are added to the platform’s sitemap, which allows Google and other tools to crawl and index them. Once public, your project can appear in search engines, be discoverable inside Div-idy, and be viewed directly on the Div-idy platform.
What happens when a project is public?
- ✅ Added to the Div-idy sitemap
- ✅ Crawlable by Google and other search engines
- ✅ Searchable inside Div-idy
- ✅ Published on the Div-idy platform
- ✅ Shareable with a public URL
Only projects marked as Public are indexed and discoverable. Private projects are not added to the sitemap.
