1: Missing Heading Tags (H1, H2……)
You have to keep in mind that you have to use the headings on your website. There are some new bloggers who do not pay attention to this thing even though it is an important factor of On-Page SEO.
You have to use H1, H2, H3…….H6 tags on your website or content. This will benefit that the user will also enjoy reading your content and Google also follows the headings.

2: Title Tag & Description
Some new bloggers or SEO persons think that we have to write a title of 50-60 characters and a description of 150 characters. And they put their keywords in the title and description which leads to over-optimization.
But you don’t do this but your title and description should have keyword relevancy. And your title and description must match user intent.
For Example
If a user searches what is SEO? and I am showing them about the SEO course then that user will not click on my website. Because all they need to know about SEO only not your course, they are not interested in your SEO course.
So you have to take care of user intent while writing the title and description.
3: Focus on the On-Page SEO while Website Creation
You do not have to do that your website is ready and you are now starting its On-Page SEO. If possible, keep an SEO person with you while creating a website.
Because SEO person will guide you and it will make your work easier. If you start your On-Page SEO after creating a website, a lot of time will be wasted.
The SEO person will guide you according to which category your website and blog belong to.
4: Missing Or Broken Alt Tag
According to SEMRush, 45% have a missing alt tag. Google is unable to read your image, so we have to put an alt tag so that Google can easily understand your image.
Many times it happens that the image does not open due to which the error is visible or we do not use the alt tag.
You can see an example of a broken image below:
So you have to keep in mind that every image should be accompanied by an alt tag. This is one of the biggest On-Page SEO mistakes.
5: Missing External Link Placement
Some people make the mistake that they do not use the external links in their content. You can use Moz Link Explorer and Ahrefs for this.
If you are writing some content and giving a link to another website there, it means that you are giving a reference to that website. This shows that the link is pointing above a good or relevant website.
You should not avoid external links because this is also an important factor of On-Page SEO.
