+#### Resetting state after navigation
+
+When navigating to the same page in Next.js, the page's state **will not** be reset by default:
+
+```jsx
+// pages/[pageTitle].jsx
+
+import Link from "next/link"
+import { useState } from "react"
+
+export const getServerSideProps = async ({ params }) => ({
+  props: {
+    pageTitle: params["pageTitle"]
+  }
+})
+
+export default function Page({ pageTitle }) {
+  const [title] = useState(pageTitle)
+  return (
+    <div>
+      <h1>{title}</h1>
+      <Link href="/one">
+        <a>one</a>
+      </Link>{" "}
+      <Link href="/two">
+        <a>two</a>
+      </Link>
+    </div>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+Above, navigating between `/foo` and `/bar` **will not** change the page title. The `useState` is initialized for the first `Page` component, and not re-initialized when navigating to a different `Page` instance. This is because the top-level React component, `Page`, is the same.
+
+If you do not want this behavior, you have a couple of options:
+
+1. Manually ensure each state is updated using `useEffect`. Above, that could look like:
+
+   ```jsx
+   useEffect(() => {
+     setTitle(pageTitle)
+   }, [pageTitle])
+   ```
+
+2. Use a React `key` to [tell React to remount the component](https://kentcdodds.com/blog/understanding-reacts-key-prop#:~:text=This%20allows%20you%20to%20return%20the%20exact%20same%20element%20type%2C%20but%20force%20React%20to%20unmount%20the%20previous%20instance%2C%20and%20mount%20a%20new%20one.). To do this for all pages, you can use a custom app:
+
+   ```jsx
+   // pages/_app.jsx
+   import { useRouter } from "next/router"
+
+   export default function MyApp({ Component, pageProps }) {
+     const router = useRouter()
+     return <Component key={router.asPath} {...pageProps} />
+   }
+   ```
+
 #### With URL object
 
 You can use a URL object in the same way you can use it for [`next/link`](/docs/api-reference/next/link.md#with-url-object). Works for both the `url` and `as` parameters:
