On-page SEO is the practice of optimizing elements on individual pages, such as content, title tags, headings and internal links, to rank for target queries. It also includes meta descriptions, image alt text, URL structure and structured data. Effective on-page work aligns each page with search intent so it clearly answers what searchers want.
