Nuxt SEO
npx nuxi module add @nuxtjs/seo
When to Use
Working with:
- SEO configuration (site URL, name, indexability)
- Robots.txt and sitemap.xml generation
- Dynamic OG image generation
- JSON-LD structured data (schema.org)
- Breadcrumbs and canonical URLs
Loading Files
Consider loading these reference files based on your task:
- references/site-config.md - if configuring site URL, name, or SEO foundation
- references/crawlability.md - if setting up robots.txt or sitemap.xml
- references/og-image.md - if generating dynamic OG images
- references/schema-org.md - if adding JSON-LD structured data
- references/utilities.md - if working with breadcrumbs, canonical URLs, or link checking
DO NOT load all files at once. Load only what's relevant to your current task.
Site Config
Foundation for all SEO modules. Configure site in nuxt.config.ts, access via useSiteConfig(). See references/site-config.md for full options.

Nuxt Content v3
Use asSeoCollection() for automatic sitemap, og-image, and schema-org from frontmatter:
// content.config.ts
import { defineCollection, defineContentConfig } from '@nuxt/content'
import { asSeoCollection } from '@nuxtjs/seo/content'
export default defineContentConfig({
collections: {
posts: defineCollection(asSeoCollection({ type: 'page', source: 'posts/**' }))
}
})
Important: Load @nuxtjs/seo before @nuxt/content in modules array:
export default defineNuxtConfig({
modules: ['@nuxtjs/seo', '@nuxt/content']
})
Frontmatter fields: ogImage, sitemap, robots, schemaOrg.
