In fact, there are about 455 million websites on the platform as of 2022.<\/p>\n<p>But this amount only makes up approximately 30% of all the websites that exist on the web. This means you are competing with billions of sites to rank better, and the basic optimization approaches aren\u2019t enough for your WordPress website. Instead, you need to follow a specific <strong>WordPress SEO checklist<\/strong> if you want to gain something from your site.<\/p>\n<h2>What is WordPress SEO?<\/h2>\n<p>Almost everyone is familiar with the fundamental techniques of <a title=\"Search Engine Optimization\" href=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/what-is-seo-beginners-guide-to-seo\/\">search engine optimization<\/a>. However, many people do not know that these approaches change with the type of content one is dealing with.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"WordPress SEO Optimization\" href=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/wordpress-seo-services.php\">WordPress SEO optimization<\/a> is one such approach that consists of all the tactics you would require to improve your WordPress site&#8217;s performance. Though the solutions included in this strategy are precisely for this CMS, there are many that you can use for other platforms.<\/p>\n<h2>WordPress SEO Checklist<\/h2>\n<p>The following are 20 such tactics that you can use to ensure your site performs well in its targeted SERP results.<\/p>\n<h3>1. Carefully Choosing Hosting Provider<\/h3>\n<p>Your choice of hosting decides your site\u2019s speed, security level, and uptime. Though not directly related, all of these can significantly affect the ranking and credibility of your site. The best part is you do not even have to waste much time searching as WordPress itself recommends three platforms to choose from.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1826 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/web-hosting-data.png\" alt=\"Carefully Choosing Hosting Provider\" width=\"800\" height=\"703\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/web-hosting-data.png 800w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/web-hosting-data-300x264.png 300w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/web-hosting-data-768x675.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>2. Secure Your Site With HTTPS<\/h3>\n<p>A significant part of <strong>WordPress site optimization<\/strong> is ensuring your and your visitor&#8217;s security. However, before buying the SSL certificate, ensure that your hosting platform supports it.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1792 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/secure-https-versus-non-secure-http.png\" alt=\"Secure Your Site With HTTPS\" width=\"600\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/secure-https-versus-non-secure-http.png 600w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/secure-https-versus-non-secure-http-300x167.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>3. SEO-friendly WordPress Theme<\/h3>\n<p>There are numerous themes available for WordPress in the market, but only some of them comply with the latest requirements of SEO. So, you need to choose a theme that is not only visually appealing but is SEO-friendly as well.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1827 size-full aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/seo-friendly-wordPress-theme-1.png\" alt=\"SEO-friendly WordPress Theme\" width=\"800\" height=\"381\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/seo-friendly-wordPress-theme-1.png 800w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/seo-friendly-wordPress-theme-1-300x143.png 300w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/seo-friendly-wordPress-theme-1-768x366.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>4. Responsive and Mobile-friendly Theme<\/h3>\n<p>A big part of <strong>WordPress search engine optimization <\/strong>is ensuring you have a great foundation to build your website. In the present day and age, a big part of online traffic is actually browsing through their phones.<\/p>\n<p>So, you must select a theme that not only appears excellent on desktops but appears great on mobile phones as well.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1828 size-full aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/mobile-friendly-wordpress-theme-1.png\" alt=\"Responsive and Mobile-friendly Theme\" width=\"600\" height=\"515\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>5. Inspecting Search Engine Visibility Settings<\/h3>\n<p>The CMS comes with a built-in setting called &#8220;<strong>search engine visibility<\/strong>&#8220;, and you can use that to instruct search engines to refrain from indexing your site. Even though it sounds straightforward, inspecting it and deciding whether to use it or not can significantly affect your site&#8217;s performance.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1796 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Wordpress-search-engine-setting.png\" alt=\"Inspecting Search Engine Visibility Settings\" width=\"800\" height=\"482\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Wordpress-search-engine-setting.png 800w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Wordpress-search-engine-setting-300x181.png 300w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Wordpress-search-engine-setting-768x463.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Thus, it is suggested that you take assistance from a <a title=\"WordPress SEO Agency\" href=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/wordpress-seo-services.php\">WordPress SEO agency<\/a> that knows what is best for your website.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Optimizing for Core Web Vitals<\/h3>\n<p><a title=\"Core Web Vitals\" href=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/comprehensive-guide-to-core-web-vitals-and-page-experience\/\">Core Web Vitals<\/a> are relatively a newer concept that evaluates the user experience of your website. In the end, whatever you do to your site is for the visitors and not crawl bots.<\/p>\n<p>So, when going through all the necessary metrics of SEO, do not skip on it; rather, optimize the site for it. Thus, it is a pointer on this WordPress SEO checklist that you cannot ignore at any cost.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1801 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/optimize-core-web-vitals.png\" alt=\"Optimizing for Core Web Vitals\" width=\"800\" height=\"292\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/optimize-core-web-vitals.png 800w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/optimize-core-web-vitals-300x110.png 300w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/optimize-core-web-vitals-768x280.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>7. Enable SEO-friendly Permalinks<\/h3>\n<p>It is nothing but the URL format of your pages and posts, and it helps visitors immediately understand what a particular page is about. It also keeps the URLs short and prevents them from truncating in the SERPs.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1802 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/wordpress-seo-friendly-permalinks.png\" alt=\"Enable SEO-friendly Permalinks\" width=\"800\" height=\"411\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/wordpress-seo-friendly-permalinks.png 800w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/wordpress-seo-friendly-permalinks-300x154.png 300w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/wordpress-seo-friendly-permalinks-768x395.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Note that you can use it to create new pages, but changing the structure of old ones would only lead to broken pages.<\/p>\n<h3>8. Dedicated SEO Plugins<\/h3>\n<p>Hardly any other CMS has as many <a title=\"WordPress Plugins\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">plugins as WordPress<\/a> in the market. There is one for every type of need, and you have to find out the ones that work best for your business model.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1803 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/wordpress-seo-plugins.png\" alt=\"WordPress SEO Plugins\" width=\"760\" height=\"449\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/wordpress-seo-plugins.png 760w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/wordpress-seo-plugins-300x177.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you doubt your selection skills, it is better that you hire a <a title=\"WordPress SEO Specialist\" href=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/wordpress-seo-services.php\">WordPress SEO specialist <\/a>to select the effective ones on your behalf.<\/p>\n<h3>9. Setting up Preferred Domain<\/h3>\n<p>The most used search engine, Google, treats &#8220;<strong>domain.com<\/strong>&#8221; and &#8220;<strong>www.domain.com<\/strong>&#8221; in different manners. Therefore, when going through the multiple aspects of your WordPress site, go to its General Setting and choose a preferred domain version for your site.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1804 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/wordpress-preferred-domain-setting.png\" alt=\"Setting up Preferred Domain\" width=\"800\" height=\"460\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/wordpress-preferred-domain-setting.png 800w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/wordpress-preferred-domain-setting-300x173.png 300w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/wordpress-preferred-domain-setting-768x442.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>10. Generating XML Sitemap<\/h3>\n<p>Every website needs to submit its XML sitemap, and you can do that by going to the &#8220;Sitemap&#8221; tab under Index. In addition, a WordPress plugin called <a title=\"Yoast SEO\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/wordpress-seo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Yoast SEO<\/a> generates an XML sitemap for websites by default, but in either case, you would have to verify your site.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1805 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/yoast-seo-xml-sitemap.png\" alt=\"Generating XML Sitemap\" width=\"550\" height=\"409\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/yoast-seo-xml-sitemap.png 550w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/yoast-seo-xml-sitemap-300x223.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>11. Google Search Console Set Up<\/h3>\n<p>If you are optimizing your site by yourself, instead of hiring a <a title=\"WordPress SEO Expert\" href=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/wordpress-seo-services.php\">WordPress SEO expert<\/a>, there is a big chance that you haven&#8217;t verified it with <a title=\"Google Search Console\" href=\"https:\/\/search.google.com\/search-console\/about\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Google Search Console<\/a>. It is one of the fundamentals, and you cannot even generate a sitemap without this verification.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1806 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/google-search-console-verification.png\" alt=\"Google Search Console Set Up\" width=\"597\" height=\"407\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/google-search-console-verification.png 597w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/google-search-console-verification-300x205.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 597px) 100vw, 597px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>12. Use Optimized Page Headings<\/h3>\n<p>Your page\u2019s title defines its <strong>H1 heading<\/strong> and default URL. Thus, one of the most important parts of this WordPress SEO checklist is to come up with headings that give context on a particular page to the readers and crawl bots.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1807 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/optimized-page-headings.png\" alt=\"Use Optimized Page Headings\" width=\"800\" height=\"444\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/optimized-page-headings.png 800w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/optimized-page-headings-300x167.png 300w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/optimized-page-headings-768x426.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>13. Writing Long-Form Content<\/h3>\n<p>Statistics show that using the long form in digital marketing brings a better and higher number of backlinks compared to its shorter counterparts. So, make it a point to upload such content regularly to ensure a smooth influx of links.<\/p>\n<h3><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1833 size-full aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/long-form-content-ave-length-serps-1.png\" alt=\"Writing Long-Form Content\" width=\"800\" height=\"486\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/long-form-content-ave-length-serps-1.png 800w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/long-form-content-ave-length-serps-1-300x182.png 300w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/long-form-content-ave-length-serps-1-768x467.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3>14. Proper Internal Linking<\/h3>\n<p>Internal linking will help you build topical relevance between different pages on your website. It makes your website more navigable and ensures that almost every page on your site receives some amount of traffic directly or indirectly.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1810 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/content-interlinking.png\" alt=\"Proper Internal Linking\" width=\"800\" height=\"324\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/content-interlinking.png 800w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/content-interlinking-300x122.png 300w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/content-interlinking-768x311.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>15. Optimize Title Tags &amp; Meta Descriptions<\/h3>\n<p>Your SEO optimization for WordPress should also include approaches to optimize your site&#8217;s <a title=\"Title Tags and Meta Descriptions optimization\" href=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/seo-title-tag-optimization-a-complete-how-to-guide\/\">title tags and meta descriptions<\/a>. These help crawl bots better understand pages on a website, improving its <strong>SEO ranking<\/strong> in the process.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1811 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/title-description-meta-tags-optimization.png\" alt=\"Optimize Title Tags &amp; Meta Descriptions\" width=\"800\" height=\"428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/title-description-meta-tags-optimization.png 800w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/title-description-meta-tags-optimization-300x161.png 300w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/title-description-meta-tags-optimization-768x411.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>16. Adding ALT Tags<\/h3>\n<p>Just like written content, you must optimize the images on your web pages as well. To do so, you can either add relevant alt tags to all the images or hire a WordPress SEO consultant to do the same.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-1812 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/alt-tag-wordpress-optimization.png\" alt=\"Adding ALT Tags\" width=\"800\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/alt-tag-wordpress-optimization.png 800w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/alt-tag-wordpress-optimization-300x144.png 300w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/alt-tag-wordpress-optimization-768x370.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>17. Manual Approval for Blog Comments<\/h3>\n<p>Although Google does not follow spammy comments, they can still negatively affect the performance of your website. So, instead of taking any chances, keep the default setting for comments as \u201ccomments must be manually approved.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1814 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/wordpress-comments-approval.png\" alt=\"Manual Approval for Blog Comments\" width=\"607\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/wordpress-comments-approval.png 550w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/wordpress-comments-approval-300x158.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 607px) 100vw, 607px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>18. Having Nest Pages in Subfolders<\/h3>\n<p>Another important thing that you cannot remove from your WordPress SEO checklist is creating nest pages in subfolders. This way, you can categorize web pages, making it easier to understand what belongs where.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1830 size-full aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/nest-pages-subfolders-1.png\" alt=\"Having Nest Pages in Subfolders\" width=\"800\" height=\"379\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/nest-pages-subfolders-1.png 800w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/nest-pages-subfolders-1-300x142.png 300w, https:\/\/www.esignwebservices.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/nest-pages-subfolders-1-768x364.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>19.
