    Is it a problem if I don't use the h tags on one of my sites? Is it bad for SEO?

    H tags are very helpful in SEO. Specially the H1 tag, which is most preferred by Google. So, it is good to use H1 tag for your website optimization.

    No it is not mandatory that you must use H tags. But if you are struggling for a competitive keyword then using H tags in a proper way can helps a lot in gaining organic ranking for Google.

    H tags are just like Subject line in an email. Now you can think of its importance.

    the H1 tag has the head of the main article on the page. of course it is very important. but notice that you should use only one H1 tag on the page

    Using H1 tag is good but if you don't want to use so no issue.

    hi friend,
    Using H tags are not compulsory but i think it should be used so that goggle knows exactly which are the important keywords.

    There is no harm in not using the h tags. If you are not using them, you are missing a way of targeting your keywords.
