SEO is often presented as a complex endeavor, but it is more straightforward than commonly assumed. A few core principles, applied consistently, can form a solid foundation that benefits both search engines and editorial workflows.
A well-structured content model handles most of the heavy lifting, removing the need for overly complex schemas or endless metadata fields. This approach facilitates agnostic SEO practices. This means you can incrementally adopt SEO best practices without having to always enter content from scratch.
Next.js includes opinionated API's that streamline SEO optimization. Aligning Sanity schema types and queries with these conventions creates an effective framework for building SEO-ready websites.
In the following lessons we will take a closer look at how we can leverage structured content and Next.js to help search engines understand and rank your content.
