<h1> Header (vs h2, h3, etc)
User1994136’s Question:
I have 3 header tags.
My setup:
h1
h2
h3
QUESTION: My h3 tag is the most important (for SEO). All 3 have the same indent so I don’t want those changed in any way. If you can help me, what I need to know is:
Since h1 is seen by SEs as most important, am I allowed to rename my current h3 into h1 and vice versa, so that they are in this
order? …
h3
h2
h1
…OR does h1 always have to be “first” in the crawl? Basically I want to tell Google etc that my current h3 is far more important than my current h1 & h2.
Thanks for your help, and also for your valuable time.
NO
You cannot tell google to do invalid scrape.
Heading tags represent a block of content. As contents end up having more and more levels, we divide the content using sub headings like <h2> and <h3> and so on.
Another similar example is in word processing applications like
Microsoft Word, Heading 1 repesents the most important block where are
other headings represent a sub portion of the main block.
Based on your details Your problem seems to be styling not the heading tags, you can control the display of whatever elements using CSS.
