First of all, thank you to everyone who pre-ordered Nuxt SEO Pro! Your early support means a lot, and I'm excited to build something that truly meets your needs.
I reached out to the early adopters with some questions about their SEO experience and what they're looking for in Nuxt SEO Pro. Here's what I learned from your responses.
Our early adopters represent a diverse mix of SEO experience levels:
This diverse audience means Nuxt SEO Pro needs to serve different needs:
You rated each proposed module on a scale of 1-10. Here's how they ranked:
The feedback was clear: SEO Analyze (8.4/10) and Google Search Console integration (7.8/10) were the most in-demand modules, followed by Internal Links (7.0/10) and Redirects (5.4/10).
Many of you mentioned that knowing "where to start" with Nuxt SEO is difficult and time-consuming. There's a strong desire for starter templates and recipes that can help implement SEO best practices efficiently.
The favicon generator emerged as a surprisingly popular request, with multiple users expressing the need for comprehensive favicon handling. This feedback has directly influenced the product roadmap.
Your feedback was clear that educational content is just as important as the tools themselves. Here's what you asked for:
This aligns perfectly with the feedback that 40% of you are new to SEO and are specifically looking for Nuxt-specific technical education for SEO.
Let's look deeper at what you told me about each module:
The clear winner across all experience levels. You value:
"SEO Analyze seems like more easy SEO build time wins and it's nice to have the extra guardrails."
Strong interest particularly from those already using GSC:
"Google search console is a bit sparse on info, but what is there often feels disjointed/nonsensical so maybe insights with a more direct connection to each page during build time will help."
Moderate enthusiasm with interesting educational gaps:
"More easy SEO wins from the Link Checker at build time is always good."
The most polarized module, with responses ranging from 2/10 to 10/10:
"I quite enjoy my redirects file on CF pages, not sure I'll get much use from this module."
Beyond feedback on specific modules, you shared several common challenges:
Many of you expressed difficulty connecting development knowledge with SEO concepts:
"I don't know what I don't know and trying to unravel the stack between 'nuxt.config.js' and 'the theory of SEO' and 'my marketing team's wants and needs' is difficult."
Even those with SEO knowledge struggle with implementation details:
"I often feel lost about routeRules."
"I found it hard to customize if I wanted to hide certain pages I'm not using in my links but exist as routes (in /pages) and don't want them indexed or mapped."
Many of you purchased Nuxt SEO Pro specifically to save time:
"I have many other things to do other than SEO, so I thought your package would help me gain time."
Thank you again for your support and feedback. This analysis has been incredibly valuable in shaping the future of Nuxt SEO Pro.
