    Here are some tips for on-page SEO:

    •Put one, no more than two, keywords in the title.
    •Keep your title tag to no more than 7 words.
    •Be sure to place your keyword(s) within the headlines of your website.
    •Place keywords or phrases NATURALLY within the copy of your website.
    •Do not KEYWORD stuff. Meaning, don’t just cram your keywords within the text and it not make sense. Make sure it has a natural flow.
    •Change your “Home” link to have your keyword in the anchor text, rather than “Home”. If you can’t within the main menu, include it within the left menu or footer.

    Hope this helps!

    Some On-Page Optimization Tips:

    To begin with, URL Naming gains the priority. You must integrate prime targeted keyword as your domain name due to which you are bound to easily advertise your business at the first instance.

    Next is Title Tag: You should try to create your title tag with your greatest preferable keywords of your business in a smart way to catch the attention of the users.

    Coming to Meta Descriptions, it is advisable to plan your proper business announcement with simple words so that the visitors can quickly understand your business. Through your keywords, they will know what kind of products or services your site will offer. Ideally, try to include the keyword into that description.

    Pay heed to tips based on Crawler Notification. You need to pass all the kinds of search engine crawler notifications that include SE robots instructions, website owner and publisher declaration, website language and copywriter name amongst others from the Meta portion of all the web page.

    Other factor is Image Optimization. As the crawlers cannot read images and the flash part of web page, try to design the site smartly. The images or flash can influence the visitors, hence you need to optimize these images with suitable contents with the help of ‘Alt tags’ that will mirror your proper business.

    Next in the row is Text Links. Try to make use of text links of all of the essential pages of the site. If possible, you should avoid flash links, Java script links, image links etc.

    Give importance to keyword density so it is essential to take full advantage of Keyword Density Checking. With this, you will get to inculcate the necessary keywords in the content and simultaneously maintain the density in an ethical mode.

    Avail of the Broken Link checking because such links are extremely harmful for the site. Without fail, you must check it first. In case, these links exist in the site, then instantly eliminate them from your site.

    Later in the list is Static URLs. It is wise to make use of the short and static URLs for all the important pages. The reason is that all the dynamic pages might follow those static pages. Whenever you find any unwanted lengthy URLs in the site, you should immediately replace them with the short ones.
    Lastly, Footer also plays important role. You should not ignore placing links of the important pages at the footer part of the index page. This will help you to direct the visitors to other vital pages by just a single click.

    What ever we do changes in our site's coding or design for SEO it's called on page optimization. It includes meta tags, title, meta description, url redirection, content (keyword oriented), use of proper robot.txt files.

    Its just a process of optimizing your HTML pages for the search engines. It is not a rocket science, and most of the place on the net if you search you will get info increase to better rankings.
    Let me explain it to you in simple terms as you are a newbie :)
    1. Server and File Settings
    A. Make sure that there is only one version of your site – 301 redirect all non www. URLs to the www. ones or vice versa.
    B. Serve up easy to read and understand canonical URLs.
    C. Name your files such that they are easy to read. “moonwalk-photo.jpg” as opposed to “moon734.jpg”.
    D. Make an XML sitemap and upload it to the search engines.
    E. Make effective use of robots.txt. Do not allow search result-like pages and a large number of auto-generated pages with the same or only slightly different content to be crawled.

    2. HTML Title and Head
    A. Use targeted keyword in the <title> but keep in mind what visitors would see. Your page title should be less than 68 characters long to be fully visible in the SERPs.
    B. Limit meta-description to 150 characters.
    C. Interior pages should have distinct meta data.

    3. Your Content
    A. Use only one <h1> tag per page.
    B. Use alt tags in images, links, etc. A picture is worth a thousand words, but search engines cannot understand pictures; so they will refer to alt tags to understand what you are trying to say.
    C. Use alt and longdesc in <img>.
    D. Make sure that your code is valid, in some instances bad code can lead to search engines not being able to properly read a page. Use the W3C validator to check your markup.
    E. Follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2 (WCAG 2.0) (Note: this is a very long read). Highlights can be read at a WCAG discussion at WebmasterWorld and a similar onpage seo checklist. Google has also published their SEO Starter Guide in pdf.
    F. Provide a useful 404 File Not Found page.

    4. Linking
    A. Implement “rel=nofollow” links to unimportant pages within your site. Focus your link juice on the most important pages, don’t splatter it all over your site.
    B. More importantly, use “rel=nofollow” links to bad links or bad neighborhoods. Otherwise, you may get penalized for linking to them.
    C. Make sure there are no orphaned pages. Everybody wants to be loved, including web pages.
    D. Use absolute URLs.
    E. Make good use of anchor text in linking to your pages. Avoid writing generic anchor text like “page”, “article”, or “click here”.
    F. Use breadcrumbs.
    G. Provide an HTML sitemap for the site.

    One of the major components of SEO is Onpage SEO, the first factor on Onpage SEO is the Page title, it is the most important, and you can see this at the top of your browser on whatever search engine you use. Also you need Meta Description and Meta Keywords. These 3 are the main factors that you need that you don’t see on your website. Remember to use only one or two keywords at start because you will never make it to the top. Focusing on too many keywords would certainly lead to a long time for optimization, because one keyword really takes time to make it to the top.

    On page SEO is the process of optimizing the content of your website. This includes the text, images and links on your website. Anything uploaded to your site's domain is considered on page.

    Both On Page and Off Page optimizations are essential for SEO. Without on page, we cannot achieve anything in off page optimization. Without off page, we cannot gain backlinks or Page rank. The search engines must be able to find and read the content on your website to understand that it is relevant to what the search engine user is searching for, therefore you need to 'optimise the website' or address the onsiteSEO issues to ensure that it is achieved. Put simply there are 2 main strands to onsite SEO: Content or Keywords, Technical Site Issues. The main factors include Alt text, Navigation, URL Structure etc
