What is Onpage SEO?
Onpage SEO is a method of website optimization for the purpose of improving the website's search rankings. Compared with the offpage SEO method, this is a method that saves you and the business a lot of cost and time.
And now we will learn 16 important onpage factors and strongly influence your website in 2018, 2019 and the coming years. Especially if your website is made with WordPress source code, we will show you how to optimize this source code.
Friendly path
Google once claimed that one SEO standard URL is a short URL of 3-5 words. We also did a lot of research and found that a website consisting of short URLs usually has an advantage over those with bad URLs.
From a user perspective, users will also like short URLs, and especially they can look at URLs and understand the content of the site.
So bad links are links
Example: seodo.com/p=123 (Bad url)
Seodo.com/18/05-2018/category/16-yeu-to-toi-uu-chuan-seo (Url is too long)
So keep it short and simplify the URL. For example: Seodo.com/seo-onpage
If your website is made with WordPress, then you just need to go to Settings – Static Path and choose the appropriate path type.
Take a look at the 6 Internal Link strategies that SEODO has used very effectively for many projects
The title begins with the keyword
Title tags are the most important Onpage SEO element you need to optimize
In addition to helping Google understand what your website is about, shaping keywords for that url, it also helps users to access the website more.
The closer a title is to the first position, the easier it will be for Google to rank your site. Below is an example title of an article about seo tool on the Backlinko.com website.
For headline keywords is the leading solution to optimize title tags, but not necessarily put first. You can put keywords anywhere in the title, depending on the goal you aim for. You should not stereotype, as that will make your title less attractive to readers.
-> SEO is to sell more, see how SEODO uses Google Tag Manager to increase sales efficiency for your website.
Use an attractive title
Should use words that attract readers, which are the characters (@, -. |), Which are numbers (2018, 2019), which are rankings (TOP 5, TOP 50, …). Adding these words will make the title more interesting, leading to increased website traffic.
The example above is the title of this article itself, here I use many numbers, certainly this title is more attractive than the title “Methods to optimize onpage”.
Set title tags as H1 tags
The H1 tag is the tag that covers the content of the article, so Google considers it the most important tag, taking the H1 tag to read first.
Please view the source code to see the website code immediately to check if your title is H1. If not, contact the website designer to help them make this optimal step.
If your source code is WordPress, the default article title will be the H1 tag, so in many cases your website is Wp, you can rest assured with this factor.
Add multimedia to content
Content in words will help Google crawl your site better, but if a site has a high bounce rate, low page retention time, then gradually your site will also be underestimated. and dropped the rankings,
To fix this, you should add more multimedia to the article. Those are related, attractive images, which are videos, diagrams, etc. Adding more multimedia to the site helps users interact with the website better, increasing the perceived value of the users. Use on website.
In each of our projects too, images and videos are numerous, and effective for users and then keyword rankings are significantly improved.
Add extra keywords to H2
Before starting to write the content, everyone has prepared several keyword groups, in which each group will include many keywords that will be in the same content.
At that time, please bring the sub-focus keywords placed on the H2 tag, this step will help Google understand the small content of the article.
From a user perspective, splitting content and placing it on the H2 tag also makes it easier for them to access content, easily find what they need.

These are the first lines of content that Google will read when visiting your site, so add keywords to the first 100 words of your site.
This is a fairly simple step so you can insert keywords into the first 100 words to naturally bring without annoying users.
Mobile friendly
Google has said that websites that are not mobile friendly will not get very good results in search rankings. This has been in effect since 2015, but the end of 2018 and early 2019 is the real sweep.
Currently, the number of active users is even 4-5 times and far exceeds that of other media users like laptops. The future technology trend is mobile, so instead of focusing on the old laptop, you should optimize the website to fit mobile now.

Use outbound links
A mistake made by many SEOs is to restrict outbound links, but this is a very important website optimization method. Part of Google will evaluate the content of your site more easily through the content you link out. But when linking out, make sure of the following:
- Only link to quality websites with similar topics
- Set rel = nofollow
- Set opens a new tab
- Don't put anchor text as a keyword of your own URL.
The image above is an example of an outgoing url that I have focused on this article, which is the url to a Google url, rel = nofollow
Use internal links
Internal linking is the backbone of your website. The role of internal links is important:
- Navigate users, keep users in the website longer
- Move customers from leads to customers online
- Navigate the Google Bot, making it easier for bots to index more websites.
- Shape the keyword corresponding to the landing page through the keyword anchor text.
- Create a Page Rank run in the website, helping the website form a solid flow system

To find the synonyms is very simple, you just need to type the keyword into Google.com and scroll down the page to see the synonym keywords suggested by Google.
For example, if I type the keyword SEO service, the keyword synonyms as in the picture will appear.
Optimize images
There are a few things to keep in mind for optimizing your images:
- Rename images from your computer before uploading to the website
- Add captions and alt text for websites (for image seo websites)
- The text around an image talks about the content of the image
