A blog can never become without proper implementation of on-page-optimization. All bloggers put their best efforts to make their blog very impressive so that they get a very good or at least a reasonable amount of traffic. Unfortunately, many of us fail in that direction and never get placed high in 'search engines'.
This is because we fail miserably in 'on-page seo techniques' and never think about it before writing a post. On-page seo technique refers to using and placement of a particular keyword or a set of keywords in each individual blog post including the heading and also writing quality content. It also includes using images, meta tags and so many things.
I was also very depressed when I found very little amount of traffic after putting so much effort to create more and more blog posts. I kept my search open on how to get a very good ranking in 'search engine'.
I discovered 10 best on-page optimization techniques that give very effective results towards this goal and I want all bloggers to follow these techniques.
#1) Title of Blog
The first thing viewers look at your posts is its 'Title' or 'Header'. The headlines or title plays a vital role in the success or failures of a blog. It's the most crucial factor in the way of creating an impressive post. Catchy headlines easily attract attention of the viewers. Try to keep your post title within 60 to 70 characters. Be careful not to use the targeted keyword of your post more than once. Mentioning targeted keyword more than once may make your post lose rank in the search engine.

Keyword density refers to the percentage of times a keyword or phrase is used in a blog post compared to the total number of all other words in the content. It is believed by many SEO experts that a keyword density of 1% to 3% is good for better SEO. Keyword density is used by the web crawler to determine whether a particular web page is relevant to a specified keyword or phrase.
Use targeted keyword not more than once in the 'header tag (H1). Again, targeted keyword should be used at least once in the first paragraph of the content and once again in the last. It may be used in the other paragraphs of the content as well but only where it makes sense. Jamming or stuffing the content with targeted keywords will not fetch better result in search engine. Contrary, the content may be marked as a spam by the Crawler and may be rejected in the search engine results and is liable to be penalized.
#3) URL/Permalink Structure
Display of properly structured url of each post is an important factor in 'on-page optimization'. Inclusion of targeted keyword in the structure of the url is indispensable.
Use of special character, commas, symbols in the url should be avoided. Instead, use dashes to differentiate between various words which is supported by all browsers.

#4) Header Tags
Heading tags should be used to highlight heading, sub-heading and minor heading in the each blog post. Try to use only one H1 or main header in each content and subsequently sub-heading or H2 or minor heading H3 may be used. Use of more than H1 tag will hamper page optimization.
#5) Meta Tag
Meta tag is an important technique of page optimization. Meta elements are tags used in HTML and XHTML documents to provide structured metadata about a web page. Meta tags provide a guide and helps the search engine bot to index all web pages in respect of a particular keyword and phrase.
Meta tags are a great way for Webmasters to provide search engines with information about their sites. The targeted keyword must be used in meta tag avoiding spam and stuffing as mentioned earlier.
Although, at present Google doesn't use the keywords meta tags in web ranking but still they are an important factor in Bing and other search engines.
#6) Image Optimization
Image optimization does a great job in web page ranking. Don't forget to use targeted keyword in the 'properties' & 'caption' of all the images used in all blog post. This will definitely lead to better page ranking. It must also be noted that using a lot of images will slow down loading of your site and will lead to loss of overall page rank. Using larger & complex images of large file size should be avoided as they may considerably increase the loading time of your web pages and cause higher bounce rate.
#7) Number of Words Per Post
The content of the post must clearly and explicitly describe its subject. It must not appear as less informative and must not fail in satisfying the queries of the readers. Many of the readers will come back to your blog if the content is able to create a positive impression in the minds of the readers.
It is generally believed that a post of less than 500 words is not fit for well informed readers and appears to be less informative.
Larger posts of 1500 - 2000 words tend to rank better in search engines and push more traffic to your blog. Read posts of other bloggers on your niche for the number of words they have used and plan your post accordingly.
#8) Link All Your Posts Together

Inter linking may be done by putting links to other relevant articles of your blog. This may be done by putting links either at the end of the post, between the paragraph or linking a specific keyword within the post
