Final optimization: Production-ready SEO with server-side Schema.org
Critical Improvements: - Move all Schema.org generation to server-side (build time) - Add dynamic dates to TechArticle schema (publishedDate, lastUpdated) - Implement stripHtml in FAQPage schema for clean text - Single source of truth: faqEntries in frontmatter Schema.org Components (Production Ready): - TechArticleJSONLD: Now accepts publishedDate and lastUpdated props - FAQPageJSONLD: Server-side only, strips HTML tags for clean schema - Both components render at build time, guaranteed to be crawled SEO Benefits: - Search engines see structured data immediately (no JS execution needed) - Rich snippets for FAQ in Google search results - TechArticle schema improves technical content ranking - Dates provide freshness signals to search engines Content Updates: - Add 'Key Takeaways' to sidebar navigation - Simplify FAQ answers for better readability - Add id='key-takeaways' for anchor navigation - Optimize faqEntries text for Schema.org compliance Testing: - All linter checks passed - No JavaScript required for Schema.org data - FAQ HTML and JSON-LD generated from same data source
