Need the right header for a static wordpress site. I can't find where to get seo-optimized header.php? Perhaps someone has a good example of header.php lying around, taking into account all the nuances for seo, which I could optimize for my solution

If by header you mean tag <head>, then you can only add this

<!doctype html>
<html <?php language_attributes(); ?>>
<head>
  <meta charset="<?php bloginfo( 'charset' ); ?>" />
  <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />
  <?php wp_head(); ?>
</head>

The output of all other information is correctly connected and disconnected on the hook wp_head, the connection of scripts and styles is done on the hook wp_enqueue_scripts
. SEO markup of titles, descriptions and meta tags should be done using plugins, choose Yoast or Rank Math, you can't go wrong. In addition, you will need hooks wp_robotsand robots_txt, the first one prints tags in <head>, the second one creates a txt file. The sitemap works out of the box and is located at /wp-sitemap.xml

Yoast Seo or Rank Math plugins won't work?

What's the problem? If you are good at SEO or have someone who is, you can create a plugin yourself - unique. And use only what you need. In this case, you will have exactly what you need, while you will know how it works.
