What is On-page SEO?
Just as the name sounds, on-page SEO refers to the optimizations you make to a specific page on your website to get it to rank higher on the SERP for queries related to the keyword it’s targeting. Some of those optimizations are visible on the page itself while others are behind the scenes. This, of course, translates to more relevant traffic to that page, and the more pages optimized on your website, the stronger your SEO muscles become.
On-page vs Off-page SEO
To understand the difference between on-page and off-page SEO, it’s best to go back to the SEO basics. There are three core types of SEO:
- On-page SEO refers to efforts made directly to the page you’re trying to optimize, such as improving its content or adding keywords.
- Off-page SEO refers to efforts made on other pages of your site, or with other sites, to help your page to rank, such as with backlinking, listings, social promotion, guest posting, PR, and more.
- Technical SEO refers to efforts involving the site’s source code, sitemap, speed, security, structured data, and more words that don’t begin with S.
While the overlapping circles look nice, they’re presented that way because these efforts are all interconnected. For example, you’re not going to get backlinks (off-page) if your page content isn’t quality (on-page), and compressing images (on-page) helps with page speed (technical).
