H1 tag or H2 tag?. - Site Owners Forums

rajnisht · 11-04-2015, 10:29 PM

For on-page SEO many seo experts say that article title should be in H1 tag because search engines gives priority to H1 tags.My question is if i use H2 tag and my content is unique do google give me same priority or not?. Thanks and pardon my English.

Its use should be based around hierarchy, H1 is generally used for the main header title for a section of a page whereas H2 would be the title for a subsection of this. Think of them like chapter and section headings in a book where the first chapter (<h2>) starts right after the title of the book (<h1>). The h2 tag should generally be a description of the h1 tag.

How Google treats the tags are down to structure, don't think of them as whether or not they're unique, but rather whether they're relevant to what you're trying to deliver on the page.

you don't get same priority on H2 tags, because H1 tag is first priority.

aditiintraday · 11-05-2015, 12:21 AM

H1 = Main Keyword

H2 = Secondary keywords you're trying to rank for also h2 tags are sometimes the same as your anchor texts while link-building.

Hope this is very helpful, if you have any more questions about this topic or S.E.O in general,

just ask.

H1 is used for main header title and H2 is used for secondary keywords.

jootavoota · 11-05-2015, 02:14 AM

h1 and h2 both are need to use in website to proper ranking in search engine.

jaysh4922 · 11-05-2015, 10:49 PM

H1 tag is important thing in On-Page Optimization. As we know, We should put only one H1 Tag in single Web page. We can't add more if you want to make your website SEO Friendly. We can put more than one H2, H3 tags in a single page.

trendingtechs · 11-05-2015, 10:58 PM

You need to use both H1 and H2 tag. Because both tags are important to rank better in Google ranking. Either your content would be fresh or not fresh, you must include both tags in your post.

Sameer02 · 11-06-2015, 12:05 AM

For Google h1 is more important than h2 because in h1 we put our main keywords, which we are targeting for the particular page and also define the value of the content present on the page. In h2 we put our secondary keywords as it is also important as per seo point of view.

The header tag, or the <h1> tag in HTML, will usually be the title of a post, or other emphasized text on the page. It will usually be the largest text that stands out. There are other header tags in HTML too, like an h2, h3, h4, etc

adityapradhan · 11-07-2015, 04:10 AM

Header tags are an important on page seo factor. Because they are used to communicate to search engine what your webpage is about. H1 is more important; this starts with h1 and works its way down in importance to the H2, H3.

Adib Site · 11-07-2015, 11:37 AM

Both of them important. H1 the most important > H2 > H3 >H4......

exciteseo · 11-09-2015, 05:10 AM

H1 for article title is a rule, considered worldwide. So, you don't need to invent anything another for article titles for now
