Readability content displayed in blue is a very good level, orange is okay, red is a requirement you need to improve.
Feature Snippets
The term Feature Snippets was born when SEO Top 0 appeared. Feature Snippets are pieces of content displayed in a large box, at the top when you are returned by the search engine. To get the Top 0, the content must be really short and contain accurate information.

Path (URL)
Links greatly affect On-Page SEO, this short, concise element will be great for ranking positions. URL needs to ensure: short, contain keywords, related to the article content.
Heading & Sub-headings (H1… H6)

Meta Description is the piece of content displayed next to the website link that the engine returns results when searching. The piece of content is an overview of the article content, acting as a short ad cluster. It determines whether the customer clicks to view details or not.
Therefore, the Meta Description needs to be as attractive as possible. This largely depends on the writer’s mindset. Write different Meta Descriptions for each content page to avoid duplication.
Internal Link và Outbound link
On-Page optimization definitely requires a perfect combination of Internal Link and Outbound Link.
Internal Link is to build internal links, which direct users to other content on the same website. From there, it’s easier to help Google collect data. And it helps the website have a uniform PR index, enhance Page Authority, speed up indexing time… The ultimate goal is to improve website rankings.
Building Internal Links does not just stop at directing users to other content, but continues to cleverly place Internal Links on pages with many quality Backlinks pointing to or Internal Links to the homepage, Category or to itself.
Meanwhile, Outbound links are links to external pages, helping the tool understand the topic of the website, increasing trust for customers to return in the future
But even with Internal Link and Outbound link, don’t cram too much into one page. Ideally, an article with about 2-6 links is appropriate, depending on the length of the article.
Friendly website
Friendly is when customers visit the page feel interested, easy to follow, not hindered by anything. To achieve a friendly website, you need to pay attention to the following issues:
The website interface is friendly for both mobile and desktop devices.

In addition, the form and means of presenting the content page… are also factors that determine the friendliness of the page…
Content
The recommended content length for On-Page optimization is about 1000 words. Article length is the fastest means for Google to assess the value of the article and the amount of information provided to the reader
Long articles have more advantages for SEO. Increase keyword density, set appropriate anchor text ratios for Google to accurately evaluate your SEO intentions. A 500 word article is not necessarily a rank less than 1000 words, but a long article has more advantages.

Use https
