Headless CMS + SEO: the working patterns
Headless CMS architectures break SEO unless you build the SEO surface explicitly.
Model metadata as content
Title-tag, meta description, canonical, OG image — make them content fields, not afterthoughts. Validate at content type level so editors can't ship pages without them.
Common questions
Which headless CMS is best for SEO?
Tie. The CMS doesn't matter as much as how you model the SEO surface in your schemas.
