+# No Script Tags In Head Component
+
+### Why This Error Occurred
+
+A `<script>` tag was added using the `next/head` component.
+
+We don't recommend this pattern because it will potentially break when used with Suspense and/or streaming. In these contexts, `next/head` tags aren't:
+
+- guaranteed to be included in the initial SSR response, so loading could be delayed until client-side rendering, regressing performance.
+
+- loaded in any particular order. The order that the app's Suspense boundaries resolve will determine the loading order of your scripts.
+
+### Possible Ways to Fix It
+
+#### Script component
+
+Use the Script component with the right loading strategy to defer loading of the script until necessary. You can see the possible strategies [here](https://nextjs.org/docs/basic-features/script/.)
+
+```jsx
+import Script from 'next/script'
+
+const Home = () => {
+  return (
+    <div class="container">
+      <Script src="https://third-party-script.js"></Script>
+      <div>Home Page</div>
+    </div>
+  )
+}
+
+export default Home
+```
