Taxable account, look at SCHG and SCHD for long term holdings with very low management fees. Reinvest dividends (I prefer to accumulate and reinvest myself instead of using the DRIP, but either works). Note that often SCHG will dip when SCHD is doing well, and vice versa. Those are the buying opportunities for each.
Non-taxable account (IRA, 401(k), etc), look at JEPI and JEPQ. These are high dividend paying funds that also have some modest growth. Again reinvest the dividends.
Once you look at those four funds, you should find other similar funds and then choose which to invest in based on your preferences, risk tolerance, etc.
Lots of YT videos on these as well.
And I agree with others, max contributions to the company plan because the match is an instant return and the whole thing is tax deferred.
