What Is On-Page SEO?
On-page SEO refers to the organic SEO tactics and actions taken by marketers and webmasters to optimise individual web pages, including copy and HTML. By making adjustments to on-page elements, companies can increase their search engine ranking for keywords, generating more organic traffic and making their site more friendly to both users and search engine algorithms. Our on-page SEO service focuses on enhancing these elements to improve your site’s visibility on search engines like Google.
When someone enters a query into a search engine, the search engine “crawls” billions of websites to find the most relevant pages to display in each search engine results page (SERP). Unlike your human website visitors who see the copy, images and other elements on your webpage, search engine crawlers primarily see the code behind the scenes, including meta tags, header tags and internal links.
Proper SEO optimisation ensures that this code is structured in a way that search engines understand, improving your chances of appearing in top search results.
Search engine optimisation boosts the credibility of a business, as sites that rank highly on search engine results pages are often regarded as more trustworthy. By leveraging both on-page and off-page SEO strategies, businesses can establish themselves as authorities in their industries.
There are many factors that contribute to the visibility of a website. Here are some of the key elements that influence how a web page is ranked:
Keywords
Specific and relevant keywords, identified by term research, drive traffic to websites within a target market. Incorporating these keywords into your page content, meta tags and header tags is essential for effective search engine optimisation.
Meta tags
Meta tags do not display on the web page, but are succinct descriptions of the content housed on a page. They live in the source code and are crawled by search engines. Properly optimised meta tags can significantly impact your search engine ranking and the click-through rates from search results.
Backlinks
Backlinks are links in other pieces of content that point directly back to the target webpage. They originate from sources such as blog posts with a call to action (CTA) that links to the contact or the products page of a website. While backlinks are part of off-page SEO, they are crucial for building authority and trust thus improving results on search engines.
Content
Informative, highly readable content is key for building trust and engagement with a target audience. No amount of SEO optimisation will aid a business that provides subpar information or services. Quality content creation is at the heart of any successful on-page SEO strategy, as it caters to both user intent and search engine algorithms.
Common on-page elements to optimise include:
- Featured snippet optimisation.
- On-page copy, images and videos.
- Meta description and title tag.
- Image alt text.
- HTML headings (H1-H6 tags).
- URL strings.
- Internal linking structures and outbound links.
- Anchor text.
- Schema markup.
Why You Need On-Page SEO
On-page SEO aims to make that behind-the-scenes code as easy to parse for the crawlers as possible. This gives you the best chance to communicate to search engines that your webpage is worthy of being listed in the top results. By optimising elements like page content, meta tags and internal links, you improve your site’s visibility in search engine results.
As a result, a good SEO campaign improves your online presence, making it easier for your audience to find your content and for search engines to index your pages. Well-executed website SEO provides easy access to the answers your potential customers are looking for. Digital marketing is more effective when your target audience can easily navigate your website in order to find relevant information. By attaining a well-positioned search engine ranking, your business is viewed as an authority in your field.
Depending on your business model and its current marketing capabilities, search engine traffic may contribute 50-90% of all traffic to your site. In other words, on-page SEO helps get you in front of 50-90% of your prospects. Leveraging tools like Google Analytics and Google Search Console can help you monitor and improve your website’s performance in search results.
On-page SEO services can also be a key competitive differentiator in your industry. As traditional companies rely on legacy marketing tactics – business cards, handshake agreements, print advertising, etc. – you can use on-page SEO to reach a modern audience in an extremely efficient and cost-effective way. Integrating local SEO strategies, such as optimising for Google My Business, can also help you target customers in your specific geographic area.
Because SEO is an ongoing, long-term investment, making it a core function of your digital marketing strategy is best practice. Algorithms change and customer demands evolve. SEO allows you to quickly keep pace with these transformations so that your company achieves higher rankings, and is ever-present and ever-agile. Regular website audits and content optimisation ensure that your site remains relevant and competitive.
The Difference Between On-Page and Off-Page SEO
SEO is a broad category that comprises numerous sub-disciplines. On-page and off-page SEO are the two main branches of a successful SEO campaign. Off-page optimisation includes the external, off-domain, indirect actions like:
Link Building.
Influencer marketing.
Social media marketing on Twitter and other social media sites.
Guest blogging.
Brand monitoring.
Encouraging social bookmarking.
While off-page SEO focuses on building your site’s reputation and authority through external means, on-page SEO concentrates on optimising the elements within your own website. Both are essential for a comprehensive search engine optimisation strategy.

Don’t Go It Alone
Businesses attempting to tackle SEO on their own face some unique challenges. Not all companies have access to internal support staff equipped with the tools necessary to improve web visibility. Content creators, web developers and other in-house staff may be skilled in their respective fields, but that knowledge doesn’t translate to effective SEO strategy.
Workers tasked with performing SEO tasks may find their productivity is suffering as they spend time trying to convert content to a format that will effectively improve their ranking. Moreover, many businesses aren’t equipped with a workable budget, the right technology or tools or the resources needed to stay on top of ever-evolving SEO trends. Implementing SEO optimisation requires expertise in areas like meta tag creation and header tags structuring — all underpinned by a forward-thinking and strategic understanding of search intent.
