Hi, I have a
/blog page on my website that includes a page searchParam for pagination. Since I can calculate the total number of pages, I thought, 'Great! I'll use SSG.' But if I understand correctly, SSG only works with path parameters instead of query parameters, right? If so, is it considered best practice for SEO to replace /blog?page=2 with /blog/2?Answered by American
Yes, I would use
blog/[slug]/page.tsx, and then you can use generateStaticParams to pre-render15 Replies

Actually, seo works with query params, it's a new thing i discovered on my portfolio @Rex
Basically my portfolio uses query params to show designs for specific projects
Notice the value=vibeify
It will open that directly
Try it out
But yes idk how to recreate it, so usually I would recommend path params.. but if you want to use search params google might index those sometimes
Also no you can't ssg search params

personally i'd still use search params and use unstable_cache to cache it so it's effectively static
using pathname is okayish? but it's quite inflexible, you can't add another filter that way
