app/design-houses/[slug]/
├── page.tsx (Server component with generateMetadata)
├── DesignHouseClient.tsx (Client component with interactivity)
└── README.md (This documentation)
```

### Key Functions

#### `generateMetadata`
- Fetches design house data server-side
- Generates dynamic metadata based on content
- Provides fallbacks for missing data
- Returns comprehensive Metadata object

#### `getDesignHouseData`
- Server-side data fetching for metadata
- Uses force-cache strategy for performance

#### `StructuredData`

## SEO Best Practices Implemented

1. **Dynamic Content**: All meta tags are dynamically generated based on actual content
2. **Image Optimization**: Multiple image sources with fallbacks
3. **Performance**: Server-side rendering with caching
4. **Accessibility**: Proper alt tags and semantic structure
5. **Mobile Optimization**: Responsive meta viewport (inherited from layout)
6. **Social Sharing**: Optimized for Facebook, Twitter, and other platforms
7. **Search Engine Crawling**: Proper robots directives
8. **Rich Snippets**: Structured data for enhanced SERP appearance

## Usage

The implementation is automatic. When a user visits `/design-houses/[slug]`, the system:

1. Fetches design house data server-side
2. Generates appropriate meta tags
3. Renders the page with SEO optimization
4. Includes structured data for search engines

## Customization

### Adding Google Verification
Replace `"your-google-verification-code"` in the verification object with your actual Google Search Console verification code.

### Updating Social Media Handles
Update the `@mymorni` handles in Twitter card configuration if needed.

### Modifying Structured Data
The structured data can be extended to include more specific information like:
- Contact information
- Business hours
- Reviews and ratings
- Product offerings

## Performance Considerations

- Server-side rendering for better SEO
- Cache-first strategy for API calls
- Lazy loading for non-critical components
- Minimal client-side JavaScript for SEO content

## Testing

To test the SEO implementation:

1. **Google Search Console**: Submit the URL for indexing
2. **Facebook**: Test Open Graph tags
3. **Twitter Card Validator**: Test Twitter card appearance
4. **Google Rich Results Test**: Test structured data
5. **PageSpeed Insights**: Check performance impact
6. **Mobile-Friendly Test**: Ensure mobile optimization
