Would you mind elaborating a little on where you draw the line? In my mind "SEO" means adding the correct meta tags to the html, but I suspect that's because I have approximately zero wisdom on the subject.

SEO and SEM (Search Engine Marketing) get mixed up a lot. SEO vs SEM is like aesthetics (color theory, composition, etc) vs a billboard ad. The latter cares about the former, but the former is innocent.

Some things that qualify for essential SEO in my book:

- (Basic) meta tags

- Alt attributes

- Mobile friendly content (always required for a blog)

- Loading speed, optimised images etc.

- No JS rendered content
