Descriptive and keyword-focused page titles improve and diversify organic rankings.<\/p>\n<p>The title tag appears in the browser tab and is not necessarily visible on the page.<\/p>\n<h3>Meta tags<\/h3>\n<p>Two types of meta tags are key for search engine optimization:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A meta <em>description<\/em> does not directly impact rankings, but it may appear in search snippets and thus affect click-throughs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>A robots meta tag is on-page HTML instructing search engine bots how to crawl and index the page. The tag can prevent search bots from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicalecommerce.com\/seo-manage-crawling-indexing-with-robots-exclusion-protocol\">indexing the page or following its links<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>HTML headings<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicalecommerce.com\/how-html-headings-help-seo\">HTML headings<\/a> such as H1, H2, and H3 organize on-page content. This article includes HTML headings: &#8220;Title of page,&#8221; &#8220;Meta tags,&#8221; &#8220;HTML headings,&#8221; et cetera. The headings, while optional, help readers digest the content and assist crawlers in identifying relevant info for searchers&#8217; queries. Using keywords in HTML headings serves both purposes.<\/p>\n<h3>Links, internal and external<\/h3>\n<p>Internal links signal to search engines the importance of a page: the more internal links pointing to a page, the higher its significance.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicalecommerce.com\/ai-powered-internal-linking-tools\">Internal links<\/a> also help search engines understand the linked page. The link&#8217;s anchor text is the strongest signal, although its surrounding words also send relevancy signals, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=aEE8wfC-7gA&amp;t=995s\">per Google<\/a>. Improving internal linking structure is often a quick way to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicalecommerce.com\/ai-crawler-optimization-tips\">streamline crawlability<\/a> and increase organic search visibility.<\/p>\n<p>External links to authoritative sites add credibility to the page, especially in &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicalecommerce.com\/your-money-or-your-life-defined-by-google\">Your Money Your Life<\/a>&#8221; niches.<\/p>\n<h3>Images<\/h3>\n<p>Images enhance visitor engagement, a Google ranking factor, and improve visibility <a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicalecommerce.com\/how-images-help-overall-seo\">in image search<\/a>\u00a0results.<\/p>\n<p>Image alt tags are essential for both visually-impaired visitors and search engines. Compressing images enhances <a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicalecommerce.com\/beware-of-instant-site-speed-fixes\">page speed<\/a> and thus <a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicalecommerce.com\/seo-common-fixes-to-core-web-vitals\">Core Web Vitals<\/a>, another ranking factor.<\/p>\n<h3>Structured data<\/h3>\n<p>Structured data helps search engines and AI platforms understand a site, its pages, and the owner. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicalecommerce.com\/3-tools-to-build-validate-schema-markup\">Schema.org&#8217;s &#8220;vocabulary&#8221;<\/a> of structured data is the most popular. <a href=\"https:\/\/developers.google.com\/search\/docs\/appearance\/structured-data\/intro-structured-data\">Google<\/a> and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bing.com\/webmasters\/help\/marking-up-your-site-with-structured-data-3a93e731\">Bing<\/a>\u00a0recognize it as well as other methods.<\/p>\n<h3>Browser Extensions<\/h3>\n<p>You can quickly see all of these elements using one or more of the following browser extensions:<\/p>\n\n<table id=\"tablepress-158\" class=\"tablepress tablepress-id-158\">\n<thead>\n<tr class=\"row-1\">\n\t<th class=\"column-1\">Feature<\/th><th class=\"column-2\">Devaka Tools<\/th><th class=\"column-3\">Site Inspector<\/th><th class=\"column-4\">SEO Meta<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody class=\"row-striping row-hover\">\n<tr class=\"row-2\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Browser<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Many<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Chrome<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">Chrome<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-3\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Title of page<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Yes<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Yes<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">Yes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-4\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Meta tags<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Yes<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Yes<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">Yes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-5\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">HTML headings<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Yes<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Yes<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">Yes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-6\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Links: internal, external<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Yes<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Yes<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">Yes (plus highlighting nofollow links)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-7\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Images<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Yes<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Yes<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">Yes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-8\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Structured data<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Yes<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Yes<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">Yes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-9\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Excel export<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Yes<\/td><td class=\"column-3\">Yes<\/td><td class=\"column-4\">Yes<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"row-10\">\n\t<td class=\"column-1\">Notes<\/td><td class=\"column-2\">Can highlight keywords, show image alt text, reveal hidden text.
