Create Custom Meta Tags

Use custom meta tags to store data that you need in Javascript, instead of hard-coding that data into your Javascript. I store my Google Analytics code in meta tags. Here's some examples:

<meta name='google-analytics' content='1-AHFKALJ'>
<meta name='disqus' content='abcdefg'>
<meta name='uservoice' content='asdfasdf'>
<meta name='mixpanel' content='asdfasdf'>

how to add itemprop tags in nextjs app router?

how to add itemprop tags in nextjs app router?

To add itemprop tags in a Next.js application using the App Router (introduced in Next.js 13), you will need to follow these steps:

1. Ensure you're using Next.js 13 or later: This feature is part of the new App Router, so make sure your project is updated.

2. Add itemprop tags to your components: You can directly add itemprop attributes to your JSX elements within your components.

Here's an example of how you can do it:

Step-by-Step Guide:

1. Set up your Next.js project: Make sure you have a Next.js project set up and you're using the App Router. Your folder structure should include an app directory.

2. Create a page: In the app directory, create a new page or use an existing one. For example, if you want to create a page at /about, you would create a file at app/about/page.tsx (or .js if you're using JavaScript).

3. Add itemprop tags in your component: Modify the page component to include itemprop attributes.

// app/about/page.tsx

import React from 'react';

const AboutPage = () => {
  return (
    <div>
      <h1 itemProp="name">About Us</h1>
      <p itemProp="description">
        We are a company dedicated to providing the best services to our customers.
      </p>
      <div itemProp="address" itemScope itemType="http://schema.org/PostalAddress">
        <span itemProp="streetAddress">123 Main Street</span>, 
        <span itemProp="addressLocality">Anytown</span>, 
        <span itemProp="addressRegion">CA</span>
        <span itemProp="postalCode">12345</span>
      </div>
    </div>
  );
};

export default AboutPage;

4. Ensure proper metadata in the head: You may also want to ensure proper SEO metadata using the <Head> component in the same file or a _app.js or _document.js file if you're using custom document structure.

// app/about/page.tsx

import React from 'react';
import Head from 'next/head';

const AboutPage = () => {
  return (
    <>
      <Head>
        <title>About Us - My Company</title>
        <meta name="description" content="Learn more about My Company, our mission, and our values." />
      </Head>
      <div>
        <h1 itemProp="name">About Us</h1>
        <p itemProp="description">
          We are a company dedicated to providing the best services to our customers.
        </p>
        <div itemProp="address" itemScope itemType="http://schema.org/PostalAddress">
          <span itemProp="streetAddress">123 Main Street</span>, 
          <span itemProp="addressLocality">Anytown</span>, 
          <span itemProp="addressRegion">CA</span>
          <span itemProp="postalCode">12345</span>
        </div>
      </div>
    </>
  );
};

export default AboutPage;

Notes:

• Ensure you have all necessary packages installed.
• The itemProp, itemScope, and itemType attributes are part of the schema.org microdata vocabulary, which helps search engines understand the content of your pages better.

By following these steps, you can effectively add itemprop tags in your Next.js app using the App Router. This will help with SEO and provide structured data to search engines.

Thanks !
