Basic SEO Configuration

1. Make sure you are allowing search engines access to your site. A lot of people make the basic mistake of disallowing search engine indexing which in turn means all other SEO efforts are in vein. To make sure you are allowing search engines to index your site/blog, go to the “Privacy” menu item under the “Settings” menu item in your WordPress administration and make sure that the following option is selected.
“I would like my blog to be visible to everyone, including search engines (like Google, Bing, Technorati) and archivers”

2. Install the WordPress All in One SEO Pack. This plugin as the name implies does a lot of SEO stuff for you. It allows you to set Meta tags for your home page, other pages as well as individual posts and many other things.

3. Use human readable Permalinks. Configure your WordPress post urls to contain keywords compiled from your post titles by setting the right options under Settings->Permalinks in WordPress administration. If your site is news oriented use a date / keyword combination but otherwise avoid the date subdirectories since they may reduce keyword relevance with some search engines.

4. Integrate Social Media buttons. You can help your visitors to spread the word about your site and individual posts by making it easier for them to do so via plugins like ***yBookmarks which integrate social media buttons into your site.

5. Use tags when posting. Tags give you internal backlinks since each tag gets its own page on your site. This helps with your deeplinking efforts.

6. Install the WordPress Xml Sitemap generator and submit your sitemap to Google webmaster tools. The plugin automatically updates your xml sitemap with new content as you post it. By submitting your xml sitemap to Google webmaster tools you help keep Google up to date with your content and speed up indexing.

7. Use images and header tags in your posts and pages. Images help your posts and pages appear in image search directories while nicely worded alt tags help with keyword weight. Correctly used header tags and html elements in general are important for SEO. For example, make sure your theme uses h1 for post titles, and h2 for subtitles.

8. Make sure your theme puts your content div ahead of the sidebars. Help make the content of your posts and pages more prominent by making sure the div that contains your content appears above your sidebars in the source of your pages and posts. Arrange the sidebars to their right positions appearance-wise via css.

9. Validate your XHtml output. Validate the XHtml code produced by your WordPress installation via a XHTML validator to make sure it provides valid code. The more error-free your code is, the better.

10. Make sure your theme’s single.php template links the post title to itself as this is appreciated by search engines.

11. Allow and encourage commenting. Comments are a source of fresh content for your site/blog and will encourage engine bots to keep coming back to your posts

Install Yoast SEO or All in one Seo but i recommend yoast seo. Then configure it as per recommendations by WPBEGINNER and do little bit of on-page optimization.
