    Hello,

    SEO basic begins with on-page optimization and continues to link building and updating the site.

    You can get some good traffic by link building

    Getting and using the correct keywords is the start (as well as full onpage optimisation) followed by link building :)

    Insert keywords within the title tag so that search engine robots will know what your page is about. The title tag is located right at the top of your document within the head tags. Inserting a keyword or key phrase will greatly improve your chances of bringing targeted traffic to your site.

    Submit your site to major search engine and submit it to web directory.

    you must first analyze your site and find the right keywords to be used.. make sure that the description of your site includes the keywords you chose.. this is all about on page factors and on off page factors it's about link building like exchanging links, one way links post your site to the directories, and post some articles or blogs.

    First of all, inside <title> tag, then, inside <h1>, <h2>, etc tags. In meta description. And of course, within page content.

    I'm not sure what you mean by off-page optimization, so I suggest that you should first of all implement on-page optimization.

    Ah, got it. Anyway, on-page optimization is what you can apply immediately since you don't depend on anybody (link partners, etc).

    Hey i think SEO based content will also help to improve the site. When the keyword is analyzed, then a good content should be developed with the keywords! :)
