**Getting Started**

# **Install Nuxt SEO**

## Install Nuxt SEO Alias

The `**@nuxtjs/seo**` module is an alias module that bundles the core SEO modules into a single installation.

`npx nuxt module add @nuxtjs/seo`

## Which package should I install?

Use `**@nuxtjs/seo**` for new projects when you want the standard SEO stack: Sitemap, Robots, OG Image, [**~~Schema.org~~**](http://Schema.org), Link Checker, SEO Utils, and Site Config.

Install individual modules only when you want a smaller dependency set or need to pin module versions yourself.

Upgrading an existing project? Check the [**~~Updating Modules~~**](https://nuxtseo.com/docs/nuxt-seo/guides/updating-modules) guide first, then follow the relevant [**~~migration guide~~**](https://nuxtseo.com/docs/nuxt-seo/migration-guide/v4-to-v5) if you are crossing a major version.

Generate an Agent Skill for this package using [**~~skilld~~**](https://github.com/harlan-zw/skilld):

```bash
npx skilld add @nuxtjs/seo
```

### Install Modules Individually

If you only need specific modules or want version pinning control, install them separately. Each module works independently and you can mix and match as needed.

`**nuxt-site-config**` installs automatically with any SEO module. You do not need to add it manually.

### Standalone Modules

`**@nuxtjs/seo**` does not include these modules, but you can install them alongside it or on their own.

**Skew Protection**: solve Nuxt version skews with persistent assets and instant updates.

`npx nuxt module add nuxt-skew-protection`

See the [**~~Skew Protection docs~~**](https://nuxtseo.com/docs/skew-protection/getting-started/introduction) for configuration options.

**AI Ready**: best practice AI & LLM discoverability for Nuxt sites. Generates `**llms.txt**`, `**llms-full.txt**`, and `**robots.txt**` AI directives.

`npx nuxt module add nuxt-ai-ready`

See the [**~~AI Ready docs~~**](https://nuxtseo.com/docs/ai-ready/getting-started/introduction) for configuration options.

## Next Steps

All modules are now installed and configured.
