Hello from seo.eugene.sh
Kicking off the SEO × AI portfolio — why a custom stack beats WordPress for personal brand sites.
This is the first post on seo.eugene.sh — the career-facing fork of eugene.sh.
Why not WordPress?
WordPress is excellent for many use cases. For a personal SEO portfolio with custom Telegram/Google comments, tight design control, and vibe-coded iteration with AI agents, a Next.js + static generation stack gives you:
- Full HTML on first load (what Google wants)
- Git-versioned content (agents can edit MDX/markdown safely)
- No plugin security treadmill
- Deploy previews before anything goes live
What this subdomain is for
- Blog — SEO, AI search, automation, vibe-coding notes
- Portfolio — case studies and projects (added as they ship)
- Methodology — how I think about technical SEO and content systems
Rendering in plain language
When you open a post URL, the server (later: Vercel CDN) returns a pre-built HTML page. The browser does not wait for JavaScript to paint the article text. That is SSG — Static Site Generation — and it is the same pattern used by modern content sites like SEO BAZA.
Comments and login will hydrate as small interactive islands on top of that static content.
More soon. For now: build the frontend locally, polish the design, wire auth when ready.

Clean stack choice. Looking forward to the AI search experiments.
