1.) On page SEO

This refers to all the valuable posts and pages on your web/blog which can be displayed as a search result or answer to a question on Google. For your blog post to be shown on Google search results, you have to work on the most important factor of SEO which is content(content is the key for SEO), with good and valuable content, your site will have a higher opportunity to be displayed on Google search results.

For your blog post to rank on Google search results, you have to write a well optimized blog post using a user friendly Language. Your blog post should contain your main keyword almost in Every paragraph of the post but not as much because Google will consider it as a spammy post and this will affect your site ranking opportunity.

Make use of headings, subheadings and minor headings in your blog post and your points should be categories and separated with paragraphs, this will make Google bots to understand what you are actually writing about.
