 If you need to dynamically update the page title based on the content, you can use the browser [`document.title`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Document/title) API. For more complex scenarios when you want to change the title from React components, you can use [React Helmet](https://github.com/nfl/react-helmet), a third party library.

Alternatively, you can pre-build each page as a static HTML file which then loads the JavaScript bundle, which is covered [here](#pre-rendering-into-static-html-files).

 If you use a Node server, you can even share the route matching logic between the client and the server. However duplicating it also works fine in simple cases.
 
+## Pre-Rendering into Static HTML Files
+
+If you’re hosting your `build` with a static hosting provider you can use [react-snapshot](https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-snapshot) to generate HTML pages for each route, or relative link, in your application. These pages will then seamlessly become active, or “hydrated”, when the JavaScript bundle has loaded.
+
+There are also opportunities to use this outside of static hosting, to take the pressure off the server when generating and caching routes.
+
+The primary benefit of pre-rendering is that you get the core content of each page _with_ the HTML payload—regardless of whether or not your JavaScript bundle successfully downloads. It also increases the likelihood that each route of your application will be picked up by search engines.

 ## Injecting Data from the Server into the Page
 
 Similarly to the previous section, you can leave some placeholders in the HTML that inject global variables, for example:
