Optimizations<br />

One of <strong>the</strong> most common misconceptions about <strong>SEO</strong> is that Google<br />

ranks web pages, not websites.<br />

So, simply having a badass home page won’t be enough <strong>to</strong> rank on <strong>the</strong><br />

first page of Google for every service you offer—not <strong>to</strong> mention <strong>the</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

cities you service outside of where your company is physically located.<br />

Ensuring each web page on your site is optimized for search can be<br />

difficult.<br />

Lucky for you, we broke down on-page optimization in<strong>to</strong> eight easy-<strong>to</strong>follow<br />

steps <strong>to</strong> help your company improve its online visibility and<br />

ultimately, generate more leads from your web pages.<br />

STEP 1: USE HEADING TAGS<br />

Header tags break down as follows:<br />

H1 tag – <br />

H2 tag – <br />

H3 tag – <br />

H4 tag – <br />

H5 tag – <br />

H6 tag – <br />

Think of H1’s as <strong>the</strong> title of a book, or in this case, <strong>the</strong> title of your web<br />

page. It’s displayed prominently <strong>to</strong> users and helps identify <strong>to</strong> search<br />

engines what exactly your page is about.<br />

Heading tags should always be keyword-rich and specific <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> page<br />

you’re writing.
