H1 ><span> Tag for SEO

    <h1><span>Idea</span> Comment</h1>


    I am using span to allow me to color some of the words in my h1. My question is will the bots still see the h1 as "Idea Comment" The reason I ask is we do not want to use it if the bots are going to skip whats in the span tags. I still want our H1's to be completely spiderable.

    Thanks,


    This is my first post so bear with me.


    :)

    There's no reason why this wouldn't be fully spiderable

    Will the spiders still consider everything in that tag as the H1 ?

    Yeah, spans are designed to do exactly what you're doing with them, to change the appearance of text. It will see "Idea Comment" inside an h1 in the example you used.

    In that case, yes. Unless the tag wasn't closed properly.

    that tag is fully spiderable, it is advisable for u to use <h1>...........</h1> tag for that i will help more in ranking.

    From the HTML codes, the spiders will know that the page has a focus on Idea Comment, which is the H1. It will be indexed without a problem :)
