RE: On page vs Off page vs Technical SEO: Priority, easy to handle, easy to measure.posted in Algorithm Updates
on-page,
technical,
off-page
On-page is basics and should be done first. You can see its effect just in a few months or weeks sometimes. When it is done properly, websites start ranking (of course with low competition keywords, but still it is the you're doing it right).
What is great here is that you can improve on-page SEO occasionally and detect what brings the best ranking results.
Technical issues are important too as indexing, mobile friendliness affect SERP in a positive way and actually they are important ranking factors.
Off page SEO is being discussed much though backlinks still work. There are good services for backlinks purchase just choose the best one matching your needs.
Hope that helped a bit. Good luck!
