Quick Start

Get your first SEO page live on your domain in just a few steps.

Prerequisites

  • A Nexting account (sign up at the registration page)
  • A website deployed on Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare, or similar platform
  • Access to your project's configuration files

Setup Steps

1

Create a Project

Go to the New Project page and enter your domain name (e.g., example.com).

Optionally set a path prefix if you want all SEO pages under a specific directory like /blog.

2

Create Your First Page

In your project, click "New Page" and fill in:

  • Path: The URL path (e.g., /my-article)
  • Title: SEO title for the page
  • Content: Your page content in Markdown or HTML
  • Meta Description: Description for search engines

Click "Publish" to make the page available.

3

Get Your Configuration

Go to Project Settings. You'll see a configuration block like this:

vercel.json
{
  "rewrites": [
    {
      "source": "/__verify__",
      "destination": "https://api.nexting.ai/proxy/YOUR_KEY/__verify__"
    },
    {
      "source": "/my-article",
      "destination": "https://api.nexting.ai/proxy/YOUR_KEY/my-article"
    }
  ]
}

Click the Copy button to copy the entire configuration.

4

Add to Your Project

Create or edit vercel.json in your project root and paste the configuration.

If you already have a vercel.json, merge the rewrites array with your existing rules. Don't replace the entire file.
5

Deploy

Commit and push your changes, or trigger a manual deployment:

bash
git add vercel.json
git commit -m "Add SEO pages proxy configuration"
git push
6

Verify

Back in Nexting, click "Verify Configuration". If everything is set up correctly, you'll see a success message.

You're Done!

Your SEO page is now live at yourdomain.com/my-article

Quick Troubleshooting

Verification shows 404

Your deployment hasn't finished yet. Wait 1-2 minutes and try again. Make sure the vercel.json file is committed and pushed.

Page shows "Project Not Found"

The project hasn't been verified yet. Complete the verification step in Settings.

Page shows "Page Not Found"

The page either doesn't exist or isn't published. Check that you've published the page and the path matches exactly.
