H1 questions

Discussion in 'Search Engine Optimization' started by Smizzl, Jul 12, 2008.

    How many times should you use the H1 tag? Once for the whole site (only homepage) or once for every page? Anyone used the H1 tag multiple times? Will the use of the H1 tag more than once over the whole site hurt your SERP? Anyone has experimented with this or has some experience with this?

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    the H1 tag should be at the top of every page as the biggest font,

    then follow down the page with the other heading tags. 2-6.

    I put the H1 tag as the biggest font size, then H2, the rest I generally leave as the same size as the text on the page,

    I was using one H1 and one H2 tag per page. But several months ago I changed to H2/H3 tags, and didn't noticed any difference.

    Use H1 tag to every page. H1 should be used one time in every page.

    I think each page's h1 tag should be unique.

    As per my point of view, we can use H1 tag max 3 times in a particular one web page. And, make sure that those keywords should be matched with your website's theme. :D

    i suggest once for every page.
    H1 tag is used for emphasizing on the heading of your page content.

    I'm too,

    I think should use h1 tag with every page, every artilce post, and also you try apply keyword in the topic, in the first paragraph (better in 25 characters of first sentence), will make increase traffic from search engines.
