Wrap-up

#Learning objectives recap

If you followed our complete tutorial, you learned:

  • How to plan your content flow
  • How to build a schema in layers of complexity
  • How to work with queries & mutations
  • How to connect to a frontend

#Best practices

  • Keep the project's business goals in mind.
  • Plan & sketch your content flow before you use the schema builder.
  • We often build complex schemas in layers because of how models are interconnected.
  • Name models and fields in a way that allows your collaborators to work intuitively.

#SEO

SEO stands for “search engine optimization”, and it's used to improve discoverability by helping pages rank higher in search engines.

We have not included this in the tutorial, but you should consider including it in your project and adding it to all relevant models.

For instance, one thing you could do is create an SEO component containing the following fields.

SEO component fieldsSEO component fields

  • Title: This is the name of our component
  • Description: This is the description of our component
  • SEO image: This is a cover image that is properly named, sized, compressed, has clear AltText, and is the best file type for SEO optimization.
  • Canonical URL: A canonical URL is the URL of the best representative page from a group of duplicate pages, according to Google. Leaving blank means it's the default URL of the page.
