🔎 seo component for next.js

Next.js provides a <Head> component to update meta tags. However, there's still much to understand if you want to achieve proper SEO. This component makes it easy to manage your SEO tags. It supports Facebook, Twitter, Open Graph, and meta tags.

📦 Installation

This package is hosted on npm.

npm install @bradgarropy/next-seo

🥑 Usage

To add a base set of SEO tags, create a custom <App/> component and add the <SEO/> component there. The SEO tags will render for every route in your site.

// ./pages/_app.js

import SEO from "@bradgarropy/next-seo"

const MyApp = ({Component, pageProps}) => {
    return (
        <>
            <SEO title="My website" description="A blog and portfolio" />
            <Component {...pageProps} />
        </>
    )
}

export default MyApp

If you want to override SEO tags on individual pages, use the <SEO/> component and only include the props that you want to update. For example, if you added <SEO/> in the _app.js file as shown above, and then included <SEO/> in the about.js file as shown below, the description would be overwritten to be Learn more about me.

// ./pages/about.js

import SEO from "@bradgarropy/next-seo"

const AboutPage = () => {
    return (
        <>
            <SEO description="Learn more about me" />
            <Component {...pageProps} />
        </>
    )
}

export default AboutPage

With this capability, you can create a default set of SEO tags, and then tailor certain properties on specific pages.
