Introduction — What Is On-Page SEO and Why Does It Matter?
If you want to rank on Google, your website content must be
optimized for search AND for users. That’s what
on-page SEO is all about.
It helps Google:
✅ Understand what your pages are about
✅ Identify who your business serves
✅ Trust your website enough to rank it above competitors
In this guide, Stevendev Marketing reveals
40 proven on-page SEO fixes that drive faster rankings, more website traffic, and more paying customers.
Let’s get right into it.

3️⃣ Use only lowercase letters in URLs
4️⃣ Use hyphens between words (no underscores)
5️⃣ Avoid duplicate URLs pointing to the same content

55 characters

140–160 characters
