    If you put your keywords in H1 and H2 tags that will give you boost in the ranking. But you have to be careful to not overuse this because it may get you penalty.

    I would highly suggest you familiarize yourself with HTML a lot more before you begin utilizing tags.

    H1 to H6 are types of tags used to re size the words in our site. Its better to use one H1 tag in a site.

    These H1 and H2 tags are the simplest part of HTML language. But in SEO, it has it's place. These are mainly used as heading tags. H1 is the highest heading and H2 is the second highest. Using keywords in H1 and H2 tags is an important part of SEO.

    However you do not need to use all six elements to structure your pages.

    For example:

    <H1>Website Design Basics
    <p>Here is some text</p> <H2>HTML</H2> <p>Here is some text</p> <H2>CSS</H2> <p>Here is some text</p>

    Use Only One H1 Element on any page

    H1 and H2 tags are as soo Simple . Just Imagine the Morning Newspaper ,what we will generally see the First page News will be in Big & Bold and then the down line of little bit small but Big also. soo these is the example of H1 and H2. In Html(css)we can find H1 to H6 tags also.

    Most important....

    h1 tag must be used only once on the page.

    While h2 tags can be used multiple times.

    h1 tag must be used for put most important keyword on the page.

    How to use h1 tags h2 h3...is very important to the layout and content appropriate division. John will guide you how to use the Heading tag in your website.


    Use your keyword phrase in headlines


    Headline tags (h1, h2, h3, etc.) Are a great place to use your keyword phrase and secondary keywords. Search engines find out headings are more Important than the surrounding text, and so assign greater value to keywords found there.


    HIGH PRIORITY


    There are six types of heading tag H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H6. The lower number then font is bigger. This means that H1 is the biggest and H6 is the smallest.


    Imagine a book, H1 like book titles, the remaining H will be the title, chapter, major headings, subtopics. The Search engine when looking at your site content as well as if you were sitting in front of a computer looking at. Will understand the title, what is the big what is small items.


    How to use the Heading tags:


    <H1>: Main content you want to mention, from your securities SEO (use only one H1 tag in one webpage).


    <h2>: Describe briefly the main content, keywords you SEO (Not to exceed 5 times).


    <H3>: Brief description of relevant content (not more than 7 times)


    <h4>: Not more than 10 times


    <H5>: Should not exceed 15 times


    <H6>: Should not be more than 20 times.


    Example with webmaster sun forum :
    webmaster forum and internet marketing forum keyword is important so they putted them in H1 in forum header. You can check on top forum to have a look.


    From H3 tag keyword you should not install it. Google will think: your content bot to read, not only for the reader.

    H tags are size specifiers for fonts. h1 is the largest and it goes to H6 which is the smallest. The idea is that h1 is seen as heading type stuff and there may be a boost if your keywords are in h1.

    All things being equal h1 tags are generally too large for conventional web development. They can be controlled via CSS. For instance you can specify that anything in an h1 tag show as smaller font.

    >>I know this is webmaster 101 stuff
    It took me forever to remember which was the big one and which was the small one ;)

    Although using these are best way to showcase your key phrases and important words for your website but it is required to consider that this must go in coordination with the content...AVOID SPAMMING..
