What are the types of SEO?

Last Updated: Sep 7, 20261 min read

There are five main types of SEO, and each one fixes a different reason a page might fail to rank: on-page, technical, off-page, local, and e-commerce SEO.

Most sites need a mix, not just one. A restaurant chain leans hard on local SEO because “restaurant near me” searches matter more than national keyword rankings. An online store leans on e-commerce SEO because category and product pages have their own rules around duplicate content and schema. Skipping technical SEO is the most common mistake we see: a business pours budget into content while the site itself takes six seconds to load on mobile, and no amount of good writing fixes that.

Here’s what each type actually covers:

  • On-page SEO: content, title tags, headings, internal links, and keyword targeting on the page itself
  • Technical SEO: page speed, mobile rendering, crawlability, indexing, and Core Web Vitals
  • Off-page SEO: backlinks, brand mentions, and digital PR that build authority away from your own site
  • Local SEO: Google Business Profile optimization, local citations, and location-specific pages for “near me” searches
  • E-commerce SEO: product and category page structure, schema markup, and filtered navigation that doesn’t create duplicate content

Pro Tip

On-page, technical, off-page, local, and e-commerce SEO each solve a different problem, and most sites need more than one working at the same time. Awrange runs full-stack SEO programs that combine whichever types your business actually needs, rather than selling one service and hoping it’s enough. Get in touch and we’ll tell you which types matter most for your site.
