    Today? They're both equally important. 1998 - onpage, 2010 - offpage

    You've got to be paying as much attention to what you're doing when you're building pages onsite as to where / how you're getting your links. (Enough you're?)

    Agree. But now I don't care much about my on page, but still focusing on off page factors ( since this will determine if my site will get penalized or not ).

    It also depend. If you don't rely only on SEO to drive traffic to your site then the on page is not necessarily important.

      On page with links on them pointing to you - on other people's site - and there because your own on page and content is decent.

    Both are important and incomparable. In typically manners, one is used for what and how you are presenting your contents (on-page) and the other for how you can let other know about your contents (off-page).

  • Both on page and off page seo are important. However, off page seo has more of an effect on a site's rankings. That is, if a site has enough high quality backlinks, it can rank for a keyword that isn't even located anywhere on page. Google the keyword: click here , to see what I mean.

    Both of them are important of course. Yes, On-Page SEO is a one-time process (most times!) while Off-Page SEO is on a daily basis!

    I think both on page and off page SEO are important for any website promotion. In on page optimization you have to make changes to your website's source page, While off page SEO techniques helps to get backlinks for your website. Check your on page factors properly, it will help you to increase quality of your website.

    Get your on-page ducks in order first. Then deal with off-page factors. They are bot moving targets, with off-page SEO being far more volatile than on-page SEO.

    Doing poorly on either of them will kill your rankings and send your site to oblivion, perhaps never to recover.

    Lastly, if you play with fire - as in black-hat on and off-page SEO tactics, be prepared to get burned. Just like you and me, Google doesn't like to get scammed!

    Good luck!

    Will make it as simple as possible, so you can decide

    1. I can rank a site with NO content and only backlinks for a competitive niche (Offpage)
    2. I can't rank a site with perfect onpage in a competitive niche and NO backlinks (Onpage)

    Not saying they shouldn't be combined, just saying what ranks a page (not a site, Google ranks pages.....)

    I would say both on-page and off-page is important. On-page never to over-optimize your keyword densities etc

    SEO is very broad, so it has to be divided in different types/division. So, imo, both are important (obviously) on their own special ways and both works effectively well together. In. other words, two legs are better than one hohoho! kidding!

    Well, I think almost everyone in this thread is talking about "which is more important onpage or offpage" but I think that OP has asked that what is more important on onpage and off page seo. Anyway onpage seo includes optimizining all the onpage factors like title,meta,alt tag..... almost each of them carries its own weight you can't leave one and go forward with the other factors. As far as off page is concerned there are somethings that needs most attention is the quality of content and the backlinks. You need to understand that relevancy of backlinks is must. You need to be very alert with the content it should be more rich and at the same time it will not be copied from any source.

    Both are incomplete without each others.
    The first step is on-page seo used to increase site quality & make it search engine friendly.
    Second step is off-page seo used to create link juice, traffic, content marketing, social sharing and popularity.

    We cannot survive without water and air. On page and Off page SEO works just the same way for a website. Without backlinks you cannot rank your site and without adding different posts on a daily basis you cannot update your site.

    That is the tactical-SEO question, i think. And now SEO is a totally strategic marketing. You need to have a goal to increase ROI, for example, then you won't have such a question.

    Both are important . Both plays a vital role to drive the traffic. But only difference is this that Onpage is done only onetime. But Offpage is need in a regular basis to get more traffic on your website.

      It always depends on your competition. If you are trying to rank for a competitive term you wont be able to do it without some good backlinks, no matter how good is your onpage.

      Instead, if you try to rank for a non competitive keyword you will be okey just with a good onpage.

    I would say they are both an absolutely equally important factor. One doesn't go without the other.

    Both on-page and off-page SEO are very important factors when attempting to better optimize your website. Truthfully, no one really knows what exactly Search Engines look for when ranking your website but we can narrow it down to specific factors that do impact your website's online presence. These factors fall under both categories on-page and off-page.

    On page is more important in SEO because if on page seo completed then we start off page seo.
