    Not being an SEO guru, can someone give me a layman's explanation of h1 and h2 and how they both fix into the overall SEO of a site. Thanks

    Also note that h1 is often given the same amount of importance as the title of the website. And from what I've read, there should be only one on your page, while h2s may be multiple. h2 still plays a part in SEO, but it's the h1 that should contain your targeted keywords.
