On-page SEO involves elements you control on your site: keyword research, content optimization, title tags, meta descriptions, URL structures, images, and internal linking. It makes your site relevant and easy to understand for both users and search engines.
Off-page SEO refers to external signals: backlinks, social media presence, brand mentions, and digital PR. It builds trust and authority.
Both are essential: on-page gets you indexed and ranking, off-page boosts you above competitors.
