On-Page SEO in 2020

 WHAT is on-page SEO?

On-page SEO refers to optimizing the structure and content of the website, whatever is on the page (as opposed to off-page SEO).

If you think of search engine optimization as a bowl of soup (our favorite metaphor), off-page SEO primarily covers link building, and on-page SEO covers these two aspects:

content

Technical stuff

HOW to do SEO on the page?

Mastering on-page SEO requires extensive knowledge, as it includes many aspects. In this guide, we'll walk you step-by-step through the most important on-page success factors and techniques.

WHY should you work on on-page SEO?

Because it's an integral part of SEO that can help you rank higher, reach a bigger audience, and get more organic traffic.

Unlike off-page SEO, on-page SEO is completely under your control.

WHEN should I do on-page SEO?

Some things require a one-time setup when starting the website (eg page structure, HTTPS, website speed optimization), other activities are required from time to time; you need to consider on-page optimization every time you publish a new blog post.

On-page SEO should be done even if it is ranked # 1 in search results because SEO is an ongoing process.

WHO should do on-page SEO?

Any website owner, blogger, online marketer, or SEO specialist. In fact, anyone trying to rank a website in search engines.

WHAT are on-page SEO factors?

On-page optimization consists of many steps.

Here is a list of 12 important on-page SEO factors that have a direct or indirect influence on the success of your website.

Crawlable website: search robots can crawl and index the website.

Site architecture: There is a clear structure and logic in the architecture of the pages.

Quality outbound links: the website is linked to high-quality external resources

Website speed: pages load quickly on all devices

Mobile Device Compatibility: The page displays correctly on all devices and browsers.

Using HTTPS: the website is protected and has an SSL certificate

User friendly URLs - URLs are simple and easy to use

Well-targeted content: the page is targeted to a specific search intent

Keyword optimization(Why keyword research is important in SEO) - The page uses relevant keywords in relevant places.

Image optimization - Images are optimized for search engines

Readability and UX: text is well optimized, readable and UX compliant

Click-through rate: The page has optimized the title tag and meta description.

Things like HTTPS or page speed are confirmed ranking factors. It means that Google uses them directly in its ranking algorithm.


But many of these are not used by Google, or at least not directly.

There is a lively debate among SEOs about whether things like CTR or outbound links affect rankings. We will not enter this debate here.

The point is, whether Google uses these factors as a ranking factor or not, they are important because they improve the overall user experience and provide value to the website visitor.
