On-Page Search Engine Optimization Tips and Checklist
1. Create an optimized page for every service you offer, and use your keyword phrases targeted for that specific service.
2. Follow this simple checklist when creating posts and pages on your site: Create a tightly focused title using your keyword phrase for that post/page. Use one or two categories for each post. Use up to 7 keyword phrase tags for every post. Make your first paragraph count by using your primary keyword phrase within it. Utilize lists, bolding, and section headers in your content. Ideally using keyword phrases into the
section headers. Sprinkle one or two of your keyword phrases throughout. Use your primary keyword phrase in the last paragraph. Include one or more optimized images in your content.
