(a clone of) Next SEO (that supports the doNotRenderDefaultRobotsTags option)

All Contributors npm

Next SEO is a plugin that makes managing your SEO easier in Next.js projects.

Version 2.x is compatible with next@v8.1.1-canary.54+ and above Version 1.x is compatible with next@6.0.0 and above

Both versions are still maintained. If upgrading from v1 to v2, please note that the NextSeo component has been changed from a default to a named export, so you need to update the import statements in your pages accordingly to avoid errors. Also, values are now passed down as properties to the SEO components instead of only using a config object so refactor your code accordingly (this would fail silently and your metadata will not be there, so double check and inspect your pages' HTML).

Version One docs can be found here

Table of Contents

Usage

NextSeo works by including it on pages where you would like SEO attributes to be added. Once included on the page you pass it a configuration object with the page's SEO properties. This can be dynamically generated at a page level or in some cases your API may return an SEO object.

Setup

First, install it:

npm install --save next-seo

or

yarn add next-seo

Add SEO to Page

Then you need to import NextSeo and add the desired properties. This will render out the tags in the <head> for SEO. At a bare minimum, you should add a title and description.

Example with just title and description:

import React from 'react';
import { NextSeo } from 'next-seo';

export default () => (
  <>
    <NextSeo
      title="Simple Usage Example"
      description="A short description goes here."
    />
    <p>Simple Usage</p>
  </>
);

But NextSeo gives you many more options that you can add. See below for a typical example of a page.

Typical page example:

import React from 'react';
import { NextSeo } from 'next-seo';

export default () => (
  <>
    <NextSeo
      title="Using More of Config"
      description="This example uses more of the available config options."
      canonical="https://www.canonical.ie/"
      openGraph={{
        url: 'https://www.url.ie/a',
        title: 'Open Graph Title',
        description: 'Open Graph Description',
        images: [
          {
            url: 'https://www.example.ie/og-image-01.jpg',
            width: 800,
            height: 600,
            alt: 'Og Image Alt',
          },
          {
            url: 'https://www.example.ie/og-image-02.jpg',
            width: 900,
            height: 800,
            alt: 'Og Image Alt Second',
          },
          { url: 'https://www.example.ie/og-image-03.jpg' },
          { url: 'https://www.example.ie/og-image-04.jpg' },
        ],
        site_name: 'SiteName',
      }}
      twitter={{
        handle: '@handle',
        site: '@site',
        cardType: 'summary_large_image',
      }}
    />
    <p>SEO Added to Page</p>
  </>
);

A note on Twitter Tags

Twitter will read the og:title, og:image and og:description tags for their card. next-seo omits twitter:title, twitter:image and twitter:description to avoid duplication.

Some tools may report this an error. See Issue #14

Default SEO Configuration

NextSeo enables you to set some default SEO properties that will appear on all pages without needing to do include anything on them. You can also override these on a page by page basis if needed.

To achieve this, you will need to create a custom <App>. In your pages directory create a new file, _app.js. See the Next.js docs here for more info on a custom <App>.

Within this file you will need to import DefaultSeo from next-seo and pass it props.

Here is a typical example:

import App, { Container } from 'next/app';
import React from 'react';
import { DefaultSeo } from 'next-seo';

// import your default seo configuration
import SEO from '../next-seo.config';

export default class MyApp extends App {
  render() {
    const { Component, pageProps } = this.props;
    return (
      <Container>
        <DefaultSeo
          openGraph={{
            type: 'website',
            locale: 'en_IE',
            url: 'https://www.url.ie/',
            site_name: 'SiteName',
          }}
          twitter={{
            handle: '@handle',
            site: '@site',
            cardType: 'summary_large_image',
          }}
        />
        <Component {...pageProps} />
      </Container>
    );
  }
}

Alternatively, you can also create a config file to store default values such as next-seo.config.js

export default {
  openGraph: {
    type: 'website',
    locale: 'en_IE',
    url: 'https://www.url.ie/',
    site_name: 'SiteName',
  },
  twitter: {
    handle: '@handle',
    site: '@site',
    cardType: 'summary_large_image',
  },
};

import at the top of _app.js

import SEO from '../next-seo.config';

and the DefaultSeo component can be used like this instead

<DefaultSeo {...SEO} />

From now on all of your pages will have the defaults above applied.

Note that Container is deprecated in Next.js v9.0.4 so you should replace that component here with React.Fragment on this version and later - see here

No Index

Setting this to true will set noindex,follow (to set nofollow, please refer to nofollow). This works on a page by page basis. This property works in tandem with the nofollow property and together they populate the robots and googlebot meta tags.

Note: The noindex and the nofollow properties are a little different than all the others in the sense that setting them as a default does not work as expected. This is due to the fact Next SEO already has a default of index,follow because next-seo is a SEO plugin after all. So if you want to globally these properties, please see dangerouslySetAllPagesToNoIndex and dangerouslySetAllPagesToNoFollow.

To avoid next-seo adding the default tags to the page, set the doNotRenderDefaultRobotsTags config option to true.

Example No Index on a single page:

If you have a single page that you want no indexed you can achieve this by:

import React from 'react';
import { NextSeo } from 'next-seo';

export default () => (
  <>
    <NextSeo noindex={true} />
    <p>This page is no indexed</p>
  </>
);

/*
<meta name="robots" content="noindex,follow">
<meta name="googlebot" content="noindex,follow">
*/

dangerouslySetAllPagesToNoIndex

It has the prefix of dangerously because it will noindex all pages. As this is an SEO plugin, that is kinda dangerous action. It is not bad to use this, just please be sure you want to noindex EVERY page. You can still override this at a page level if you have a use case to index a page. This can be done by setting noindex: false.

The only way to unset this, is by removing the prop from the DefaultSeo in your custom <App>.

No Follow

Setting this to true will set index,nofollow (to set noindex, please refer to noindex). This works on a page by page basis. This property works in tandem with the noindex property and together they populate the robots and googlebot meta tags.

Note: The noindex and the nofollow properties are a little different than all the others in the sense that setting them as a default does not work as expected. This is due to the fact Next SEO already has a default of index,follow because next-seo is a SEO plugin after all. So if you want to globally these properties, please see dangerouslySetAllPagesToNoIndex and dangerouslySetAllPagesToNoFollow.

Example No Follow on a single page:

If you have a single page that you want no indexed you can achieve this by:

import React from 'react';
import { NextSeo } from 'next-seo';

export default () => (
  <>
    <NextSeo nofollow={true} />
    <p>This page is not followed</p>
  </>
);

/*
<meta name="robots" content="index,nofollow">
<meta name="googlebot" content="index,nofollow">
*/

dangerouslySetAllPagesToNoFollow

It has the prefix of dangerously because it will nofollow all pages. As this is an SEO plugin, that is kinda dangerous action. It is not bad to use this, just please be sure you want to nofollow EVERY page. You can still override this at a page level if you have a use case to follow a page. This can be done by setting nofollow: false.

The only way to unset this, is by removing the prop from the DefaultSeo in your custom <App>.

noindex nofollow meta content of robots, googlebot
-- -- index,follow (default)
false false index,follow
true -- noindex,follow
true false noindex,follow
-- true index,nofollow
false true index,nofollow
true true noindex,nofollow

Twitter

Twitter will read the og:title, og:image and og:description tags for their card, this is why next-seo omits twitter:title, twitter:image and twitter:description so not to duplicate.

Some tools may report this an error. See Issue #14

facebook

facebook={{
  appId: 1234567890,
}}

Add this to your SEO config to include the fb:app_id meta if you need to enable Facebook insights for your site. Information regarding this can be found in facebook's documentation

Canonical URL

Add this on a page per page basis when you want to consolidate duplicate URLs.

canonical = 'https://www.canonical.ie/';

Alternate

This link relation is used to indicate a relation between a desktop and a mobile website to search engines.

Example:

mobileAlternate={{
  media: 'only screen and (max-width: 640px)',
  href: 'https://m.canonical.ie',
}}
languageAlternate={{
  hrefLang: 'de-AT',
  href: 'https://www.canonical.ie/de',
}}

Additional Meta Tags

This allows you to add any other meta tags that are not covered in the config.

content is required. Then either name or property. (Only one on each)

Example:

additionalMetaTags={[{
  property: 'dc:creator',
  content: 'Jane Doe'
}, {
  name: 'application-name',
  content: 'NextSeo'
}]}

Invalid Examples:

These are invalid as they contain property and name on the same entry.

additionalMetaTags={[{
  property: 'dc:creator',
  name: 'dc:creator',
  content: 'Jane Doe'
}, {
  property: 'application-name',
  name: 'application-name',
  content: 'NextSeo'
}]}

One thing to note on this is that it currently only supports unique tags. This means it will only render one tag per unique name / property. The last one defined will be rendered.

Example:

If you pass:

additionalMetaTags={[{
  property: 'dc:creator',
  content: 'John Doe'
}, {
  property: 'dc:creator',
  content: 'Jane Doe'
}]}

it will result in this being rendered:

<meta property="dc:creator" content="Jane Doe" />,

JSON-LD

Next SEO now has the ability to set JSON-LD a form of structured data. Structured data is a standardised format for providing information about a page and classifying the page content.

Google has excellent content on JSON-LD -> HERE

Below you will find a very basic page implementing each of the available JSON-LD types:
