On-page Optimization
On-page optimization comprises of various alterations and change in many components on a webpage. Few of them are inclusion of the keywords in the page title, meta description/keywords, header and anchor tags, body text etc. The keywords should be included in all the in-bound and out-bound links. The key words must also be included in the “Alt tag of the images”. The search engine doesn’t search a webpage like humans do. It analyses the HTML code and searches for the keywords there.
