README

LaraNx Seo enables your Laravel app to store SEO and social media meta tag data in database instead of your code. Moving marketing data out of your code base and into your database where it is easily modified.

LaraNx Seo creates tag nodes and associates them with files, then renders tags in your views' head section.

This is the perfect solution for sites that require application logic to be applied to public pages where SEO is important without needing to embed logic in CMS software like WordpPress and Ghost.

This package and the Full LaraNx package are ideal for Laravel websites homepage and primary pages, since these pages are usually highly customized.

You can also use the SEO portion of the package for pages that use the page's content to generate tags (ie products, books, etc.)

How LaraNx Seo works

Create Tag:

This is an example. You can create your own CRUD resource or get LaraNx Full Version

$tag = new Tag;
$tagData = [
    'page'                => 'about',             //identifier
    'title'               => 'about title',
    'description'         => 'about description',
    'canonical'           => 'https://example.com',
    'feature_image'       => 'https://example.com/images/feature.png',
    'og_title'            => '',                 //if blank render will use title
    'og_description'      => '',                 //if blank render will use description
    'og_image'            => '',                 //if blank render will use feature_image
    'twitter_title'       => '',                 //if blank render will use title
    'twitter_description' => '',                 //if blank render will use description
    'twitter_image'       => '',                 //if blank render will use feature_image
    'jsonld'              => '',                 //add validated jsonld string
];
$tag->store($tagData['page'], $tagData);

Retrieve tag node

In controller retrieve tag:

$this->seo = new Seo;                    //this can be placed in constuctor
$this->seo->fill('about', 'Site Name');  //use page identifier and site name

//pass seo to view

Page's content to render seo meta tags

In controller retrieve model:

$product = Product::find($productId);

$seo = new Seo;                          //can be placed in constructor $this->seo                 
$seo->title($product->title);
$seo->description($product->description);
$seo->canonical('page-canonical');

$seo->opengraph('type', 'website');
$seo->opengraph('site_name', 'Site Name');
$seo->opengraph('title', $product->title);
$seo->opengraph('description', $product->description);
$seo->opengraph('url', 'page-canonical');
$seo->opengraphImage($product->imageUrl);

$seo->twitter('card', 'summary_large_image');
$seo->twitter('title', $product->title);
$seo->twitter('description', $product->description);
$seo->twitter('url', 'page-canonical');
$seo->twitter('image', $product->imageUrl);
            
//pass seo to view

Output meta tags

layout.blade.php

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
    <link href="/css/app.css" rel="stylesheet">
