In the beginning many new blogger just focus on getting their website approved by Google AdSense and they don't do proper SEO. In the results, if the site is approved but they can't generate a single amount of money from their website. Now I will guide you how you can perform On-Page SEO for your website.

1. Content & Keywords

The most important part is to find a low competition niche. If you choose a niche which have so many website already built, and each website have good backlinks. Your chances to rank in google is difficult. Find Low Keyword Difficulty (KD), keywords which can easily rank in the Google with a good content. Follow these steps to write a SEO optimize content.

1. Don't use too much your main keywords and avoid keyword stuffing.
2. Write related to your title content.
3. Include your main keyword in Introduction.
4. Use similar keywords to rank on different queries.

In the beginning the free tool to generate keyword is Semrush, and also you can use Ahrefs Keyword generator.

2. Title Tags and Meta Descriptions

Blog title is so important and it give you more clicks if it is optimized. For this make sure to use only one time your main keyword, on which you want to rank. Make your keyword short and simple. Don't include too much keywords in it.

Meta description is also important, because users read it in the first in search results. Place your main focus keyword in meta description also. And write it with a short simple intro about your title what you going to discussed in this blog and what you mentioned for the users.

3. Include Headings

Headings matters a lot and if you just write content in paragraph, you are not harming the user experience but also Google experience. Make sure to include headings in the content. You can start with this Good structure:

• Heading (H1) Intro
• H2 Heading related to your focus keyword
• H3, H4, and H5 your main body paragraphs
• H6 Conclusion

This is a better structure for using heading in your content. But avoid keyword stuffing, don't add your main keyword in all headings. 

4. Optimize URLs

I've seen so many website who mentioned dates in the URL, and this is not a good practice. Your URL is simple and only include your main focus keyword on which you need to rank in the Google. For this use this simple structure, for example if your blog post is related to "Best Gaming Laptop in 2025.". In this case your URL will be:

{ www.domain.com/best-gaming-laptop }

This is a good structure in which you only add your main keyword after your domain name. This is so simple, and also readable by users.

5. Add Images

Images will generate a good traffic from Google Images section if you add them perfectly. Mostly websites get traffic from images section. For this you need to perfect image with a good ALT Text. You need to add main keyword in the file name of the image which you going to add in the blog website.

Along with this if you are using WordPress, it allow you to add ALT text which help your images to seen in the search results. But for this make sure to index images in the Google also.

6. Internal Linking

Internal Linking means to link one page to another page of your own website. This will give you some benefits like if a user click on one link and redirect to another link. You get more traffic from it. Also it help in the indexing for your pages. If google crawlers come to your page and index it. If they find another link in the same pages, the crawler also crawl the second page.

By this your other pages will be also indexed. So, including internal linking within your website improve your website SEO and visibility.

Tips for Website Growth:

• Keep indexing your new pages and posts.
• Target Low KD keywords to get fast rankings.
• Create Backlinks for your website.
• Update content after one month.
• Do not share your links to people who don't like your niche.

Conclusion:

You also need to do some more settings like improving the speed of your website to load it faster on mobile devices. This can be happen with image optimization, caching, and efficient code. Focus on the user experience, add a clear navigation which keep users engaged with your website. 

Perform all these practices every time you will publish new content. Also check your website after few time to check if there is any errors or broken links. Technical problems can also affect the user experience, so check it all time.
