The foundations come first because nothing else works if Google can&#8217;t find or crawl your site. Don&#8217;t skip ahead to link building while your pages aren&#8217;t even indexed. If a step doesn&#8217;t apply to you yet, tick it and move on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Foundations (do these first)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Set up Google Search Console<\/strong> and verify your site. This is your #1 free SEO tool.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Set up Google Analytics 4<\/strong> with at least one key event (your main conversion).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Submit your sitemap<\/strong> in Search Console (<code>yoursite.com\/sitemap_index.xml<\/code>).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Confirm your pages are indexed<\/strong> \u2014 check the Pages (Indexing) report. An unindexed page can&#8217;t rank.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Make sure your site uses HTTPS<\/strong> (the padlock). It&#8217;s a basic trust and ranking signal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Keyword &amp; content basics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Pick one primary keyword per page.<\/strong> Don&#8217;t make one page chase five different topics.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Choose realistic keywords.<\/strong> As a new site, target lower-competition, longer phrases (&#8220;seo checklist for beginners&#8221;) over giant head terms (&#8220;seo&#8221;).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Match search intent.<\/strong> Decide the one job each page must do for the reader, and do it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Write genuinely helpful content<\/strong> with your own experience, examples, or numbers \u2014 the thing AI-generated pages can&#8217;t fake.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. On-page SEO checklist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Title tag:<\/strong> under 60 characters, primary keyword near the front, brand at the end.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Meta description:<\/strong> 155\u2013160 characters, natural keyword, ends with a reason to click.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>One H1 per page<\/strong> that includes your keyword.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Logical headings (H2\/H3)<\/strong> that break the content into scannable sections.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Readable URL slug<\/strong> \u2014 short, descriptive, keyword-based (<code>\/seo-checklist\/<\/code>, not <code>\/page?id=42<\/code>).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Descriptive image alt text and file names.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Internal links<\/strong> to and from related pages, with descriptive anchor text.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>A clear answer near the top<\/strong> so both readers and AI results can use your page.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">(Want the deeper version of this section?

Technical SEO checklist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Mobile-friendly.<\/strong> Most searches are on phones \u2014 check it looks and works right on mobile.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Core Web Vitals<\/strong> in reasonable shape \u2014 LCP (loading), CLS (layout stability), INP (responsiveness).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Fast-loading pages<\/strong> \u2014 compress images, remove unused code and plugins.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>No broken links<\/strong> (internal or external).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Crawlable<\/strong> \u2014 check your robots.txt isn&#8217;t accidentally blocking important pages.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Basic schema markup<\/strong> where relevant (FAQ, Article, Product) to help search engines understand your pages.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not sure how your site scores on these? <a href=\"\/free-seo-test\/\">Run a free audit<\/a> \u2014 it checks the technical basics and lists what to fix, in priority order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Off-page basics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Earn a few quality backlinks<\/strong> from relevant, trustworthy sites (guest posts, genuine mentions, resource pages).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Keep your name, address, phone consistent<\/strong> across any directories (important for local businesses).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u2610 <strong>Build brand presence<\/strong> where your audience already is \u2014 helpful answers, not spam.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6.
