    Given that Search Engines give prominence to <H1> tags there is often a trade-off between showing multiple <h1> headings for aesthetics. I'm wondering if you could actually include more <h1> headings and use a CSS to reduce the size so they don't look out of place.

    Thoughts?

    Thanks.

    No buddy. You should not do this. There must be only one H1 tag in a page. You may include it and let the font be a little bigger.

    While I agree that you should only have one h1 tag, you can style it however you wish.

    I had one site in which the h1 was the opening few words of the first paragraph. Looked like:

    Worked quite well.
