+<template>
+  <NuxtLink :to="finalPath" v-bind="$attrs">
+    <slot />
+  </NuxtLink>
+</template>
 ```
 
 Then use this component throughout your application:
 
-```vue fileName="pages/index.vue"
+```vue fileName="layouts/default.vue"
+<script setup lang="ts">
+import Links from "~/components/Links.vue";
+import LocaleSwitcher from "~/components/LocaleSwitcher.vue";
+</script>
+
 <template>
   <div>
-    <LocalizedLink to="/about">
-      {{ content.aboutLink }}
-    </LocalizedLink>
-    <LocalizedLink to="/contact">
-      {{ content.contactLink }}
-    </LocalizedLink>
+    <header>
+      <LocaleSwitcher />
+    </header>
+    <main>
+      <slot />
+    </main>
+
+    <Links href="/">Home</Links>
+    <Links href="/about">About</Links>
   </div>
 </template>
-
-<script setup lang="ts">
-import { useIntlayer } from "vue-intlayer";
-import LocalizedLink from "~/components/LocalizedLink.vue";
-
-const content = useIntlayer("home");
-</script>
 ```
 
+> By using `NuxtLink` with localised paths, you ensure that:
+>
+> - Search engines can crawl and index all language versions of your pages
+> - Users can share localised URLs directly
+> - Browser history works correctly with locale-prefixed URLs
+
 ### (Optional) Step 9: Handle Metadata and SEO
 
-Nuxt provides excellent SEO capabilities. You can use Intlayer to manage localised metadata:
+Nuxt provides excellent SEO capabilities via the `useHead` composable (auto-imported). You can use Intlayer to handle localised metadata using the `.raw` or `.value` accessor to get the primitive string value:
 
 ```vue fileName="pages/about.vue"
 <script setup lang="ts">
-import { useSeoMeta } from "nuxt/app";
-import { getIntlayer } from "intlayer";
-import { useLocale } from "vue-intlayer";
+import { useIntlayer } from "vue-intlayer";
 
-const { locale } = useLocale();
-const content = getIntlayer("about-meta", locale.value);
+// useHead is auto-imported in Nuxt
+const content = useIntlayer("about-page");
 
-useSeoMeta({
-  title: content.title,
-  description: content.description,
+useHead({
+  title: content.metaTitle.raw, // Use .raw for primitive string access
+  meta: [
+    {
+      name: "description",
+      content: content.metaDescription.raw, // Use .raw for primitive string access
+    },
+  ],
 });
 </script>
 
 <template>
-  <div>
-    <h1>{{ content.pageTitle }}</h1>
-    <p>{{ content.pageContent }}</p>
-  </div>
+  <h1><content.title /></h1>
 </template>
 ```
 
+> Alternatively, you can use the `import { getIntlayer } from "intlayer"` function to get the content without Vue reactivity.
+
+> **Accessing content values:**
+>
+> - Use `.raw` to get the primitive string value (non-reactive)
+> - Use `.value` to get the reactive value
+> - Use `<content.key />` component syntax for Visual Editor support
+
 Create the corresponding content declaration:
 
-```ts fileName="pages/about-meta.content.ts"
+```ts fileName="pages/about-page.content.ts" contentDeclarationFormat="typescript"
 import { t, type Dictionary } from "intlayer";
-import type { useSeoMeta } from "nuxt/app";

   content: {

+    metaTitle: t({
       en: "About Us - My Company",
       fr: "À Propos - Ma Société",
       es: "Acerca de Nosotros - Mi Empresa",
     }),
-    description: t({

       fr: "En savoir plus sur notre société et notre mission",
       es: "Conozca más sobre nuestra empresa y nuestra misión",
     }),

   },
