**Core Concepts**

# **Nuxt Config SEO Meta**

## Introduction

The [`**useSeoMeta()**`](https://nuxt.com/docs/api/composables/use-seo-meta#useseometa) composable is a powerful tool for managing SEO meta tags.

Nuxt SEO Utils allows you to provide the `**useSeoMeta()**` input within your `**nuxt.config**`.

**Available properties:** for a complete list of all available SEO meta properties, see the [**~~Nuxt ~~**`**useSeoMeta()**`**~~ documentation~~**](https://nuxt.com/docs/api/composables/use-seo-meta#parameters).

Common properties include:

**Basic SEO:**

- `**title**` - Page title
- `**description**` - Page description
- `**keywords**` - Page keywords
- `**author**` - Content author
- `**robots**` - Robot crawling instructions
- `**canonical**` - Canonical URL (set to `**false**` to disable)

**Open Graph (Facebook/Social):**

- `**ogTitle**` - Open Graph title
- `**ogDescription**` - Open Graph description
- `**ogImage**` - Open Graph image URL
- `**ogUrl**` - Open Graph URL
- `**ogType**` - Open Graph type (e.g., 'website', 'article')
- `**ogSiteName**` - Site name
- `**ogLocale**` - Locale (e.g., 'en\_US')

**Twitter Card:**

- `**twitterCard**` - Twitter card type (e.g., 'summary\_large\_image')
- `**twitterSite**` - Twitter site handle
- `**twitterCreator**` - Twitter creator handle
- `**twitterTitle**` - Twitter title
- `**twitterDescription**` - Twitter description
- `**twitterImage**` - Twitter image URL

**App & Mobile:**

- `**applicationName**` - Application name
- `**themeColor**` - Theme color (can be array with media queries)
- `**colorScheme**` - Color scheme support (e.g., 'dark light')
- `**viewport**` - Viewport settings

**Advanced:**

`**fallbackTitle**` is a top-level module option (`**seo.fallbackTitle**`), not a `**seo.meta**` property. See the [**~~Fallback Title~~**](https://nuxtseo.com/docs/seo-utils/guides/fallback-title) guide.

## Usage

To use it, simply add within the `**seo.meta**` config of your `**nuxt.config**`:

nuxt.config.ts

```ts
export default defineNuxtConfig({
  seo: {
    meta: {
      // Basic SEO
      description: 'My awesome website',
      author: 'Harlan Wilton',

      // Theme & Color
      themeColor: [
        { content: '#18181b', media: '(prefers-color-scheme: dark)' },
        { content: 'white', media: '(prefers-color-scheme: light)' },
      ],
      colorScheme: 'dark light',

      // Social Media
      twitterCreator: '@mytwitter',
      twitterSite: '@mysite',

      // App Info
      applicationName: 'My App',

      // Nuxt SEO Utils already sets the below tags for you
      ogSiteName: 'My Site Name',
      ogLocale: 'en_US',
      ogType: 'website',
      ogUrl: 'https://example.com',
      ogTitle: 'My Site',

      // Other Nuxt SEO modules handle these
      ogImage: 'https://example.com/my-og-image.png',
      robots: 'index, follow',
    }
  },
})
```

The functionality is the same as the composable without reactivity. It has a higher priority than `**app.head**`.

These settings provide **site-wide defaults**. You can override them on individual pages using the `**useSeoMeta()**` composable.
