On Page SEO for Elementor

If you’re looking to optimize your Elementor site, on-page SEO is the key. On-page SEO, which I like to call the meat & potatoes of SEO, ensures each page is primed for search engines. It’s a great place to start because you are completely in control, it requires no technical knowledge and it’s fast and cheap (practically free).

What is on page SEO

On Page SEO is exactly what it sounds like - implementing search engine optimisation techniques on your web pages. It's all about optimizing individual pages to rank higher in search engines. It's crucial for SEO because it tells search engines what your page is all about. To optimize your page, you need to focus on elements like content, HTML tags, and internal links. Effective on-page SEO involves using strategic keywords throughout your content and ensuring your page loads quickly.

What are some of the on-page elements you can optimise? (Don’t let this list overwhelm you, POP makes this easy, even for a beginner)

• Meta Title 
• Meta Description
• Headings and subheadings H1-H6
• URL slug
• Image optimization
• Keywords
• Content aligned with Search Intent 
• Internal Links
• UX and UI 
• Website speed 
• Mobile friendliness and mobile-first approach
• Accessibility 
• Canonical tags 
• Schema implementation
  ‍

What on page SEO is not?

Everything that you do off your pages - duh. That includes link building, PR, social media, citations, reputation management, and more. 

On page SEO isn’t solely about technical SEO, which focuses more on the backend, like server optimization. IOn page SEO also isn’t just about meta snippet optimization or purely keyword stuffing. You can’t ignore the technical, but remember it’s not everything. It’s not about just technical improvements, which technical SEO and optimization handle. So, keep these points in mind while navigating what on page SEO involves and what it doesn't.

That doesn’t mean you should only do On Page, and forget about link building. On page is a great foundation, mainly because it’s totally within your control. 

What you’ll need to SEO your Elementor website?

To SEO your Elementor website effectively, you’ll need a few essential tools and some strategic know-how:

• A website built on Elementor (If you don’t have this, click here to browse their products)
• An idea of which page you first want to SEO on your website (if you dont know, choose the home page or a product / service page)
• An idea of the perfect ‘keyword’ or phrase for this page (for what Google search do you want this page to appear?)

Elementor & POP

SEO your Elementor website in no time with Elementor and POP! We know you wanna rank high on search engines, and Elementor combined with POP makes it super simple.

In this tutorial, you will be using a combination of both Elementor and POP to do your SEO.

What is POP?

POP, or PageOptimizer Pro, is a top-notch SEO tool that's a game-changer for anyone looking to optimize their Elementor website in no time. With POP, you can build and optimize your site using powerful SEO tools designed to boost your traffic. It'sperfect for beginners and it works perfectly with Elementor. POP takes the guesswork out of creating web pages for search engines such as Google. 

Just input the ‘keyword’ or phrase you want to rank and let POP create an easy to follow SEO plan for your Elementor website, but I’ll be showing you the step-by-step.
‍

Why use POP?

⚠️You do not HAVE to use POP for your Elementor on page SEO. But in my opinion, you should.

Why? POP uses an advanced algorithm to calculate precisely what the winning competitor pages in Google are doing to win their on page SEO and get top Google rankings.

POP will score your page out of 100, against your top Google competitors and then create a perfect content ‘recipe’ for your page.

It will then help you create or update the page content in a best-practice, SEO manner.

If you use POP and follow the instructions it is almost guaranteed you will start to see an increase in impressions, ranking keywords and traffic to the page within a few weeks.

‍

‍

If you do not want to use POP, I would advise you to place your ‘keyword’ or phrase into the H1 and the Title of the page and preferably in the URL too. I call this the ‘quick & dirty SEO method’. However, this is a bare minimum approach, it’s not scientific and I can not guarantee it will help your traffic.

2. Step-by-step video tutorial on Elementor SEO with POP

In this step-by-step video tutorial, you'll learn how to optimize your Elementor website's SEO using POP AI Writer.

‍

• Open the POP report you created in the previous tutorial. 
• Click over AI Writer and click “Start”.

• You have 3 options to choose from when it comes to content generation - POP AI Writer can optimize and rewrite the currently written word count (page length), it can create new, optimized content for the target word count (recommended), or you can select a custom word count.

• There are 6 steps you need to complete to get to the AI Writer finish line. 

• Select the target word count and then click “Next”. 
• Now you’ll be in “Rich content” section where you can add suggestions for bold terms, italic terms, images, lists, forms, frequently asked questions, and table of contents. Add the quantity of the chosen components and click “Next”.
• Now you can choose your competitors that AI will use as inspiration for writing your optimized content.

Additionally, below the competitors, you can write the tone of your content, the author, and put your brand name in. Click “Next”.
‍

• In the Page title area you can choose if AI should rewrite your titles or not. 
• In our case, our “Orange Chicken Recipe” did not have a Page Title so we can’t use the first option ‘Use my title for AI inspiration’. We will choose competitors’ titles for AI inspiration. Click “Generate”.

• Generate sub-headings (H2s and H3s) in the Sub-headings section. You can choose to keep them as is when working on a page that already has them. 
• We encourage you to adjust your H2 and H3 subheadings here until you are happy with them. These will form the outline for your page content.
• In the Main content area you can choose AI to rewrite the existing text on your page or to let AI generate new original text. You can also supply POP AI with examples of the text you would like to see on your own page. You can for instance copy paragraphs from your own or a competitors site. POP AI will re-write them to make them original, and optimize the SEO at the same time.

• Click “Generate Main Content”. This step takes less than 5 minutes.
• Now you can ‘Check the Optimization Score’. You should see the score improve to close to 100. This means your page is now SEO optimized.
• Download your optimized content piece. You have 4 options: Plain text, html.txt, .html, and docx.

You can also see an in-depth step-by-step tutorial on using the POP AI writer here in our help center.

3. Add your POP optimized content from POP into your Elementor page

There are multiple ways to transfer your content from POP AI to your Elementor page. The first way is to open the AI Writer, download the article and transfer it to your site - just follow the previous step above. 

The second way is to download your content as plain .txt or html.txt. Here’s how to do it:
‍

‍

• Download .html from POP AI Writer to cover all the bases since you can open these documents as a local host in your Chrome browser.

• Once downloaded, this is how it would look like opened in local host. Here you can check how your paragraphs, strong tags, headings and other types of rich content will appear. 

• If Elementor allows access to the html backend, you can copy-paste the html directly.

‍

• The easier way for most people is to just copy and paste the text directly from the browser into your editor in Elementor. 
  ‍

4. Check the content using the POP Chrome Extension

Alright, folks, to ensure that the amazing SEO you did inside the POP AI is reflecting on your actual web page, it's time to check your content using the POP Chrome Extension. Simply install this SEO plugin on your Chrome browser and start optimizing.

• Select the page run from the Page runs list that matches your editor.

• Choose where you’re editing - the website editor for the page or Google docs.
