How many h1 in a page for SEO
Updated on: 8 April 2013
How many h1 in a page would be ideal?
H1 refer to “heading number 1” in website building which carry the most weight compare to h2, h3, h4, h5, h6. It is VERY IMPORTANT to have h1 in your website as it tells google spider what your page is about.
As per Matt Cutt video, many may abuse it by adding multiple h1 which is not recommended.
Our recommendation: Use only 1x h1 in a page and the h1 must be the keyword you are targeting. Should you have multiple sections in your page, you can also use h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 etc.
Take our website as an example:
https://www.impossible.sg/our-services/search-engine-optimization-seo
H1: Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
H2:
- What is Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
- Why is Search Engine Optimization (SEO) important
- How can Search Engine Optimization (SEO) help in my business
- What are the advantages of Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
- Points to take note on Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
Obviously, our targeted keyword is “Search Engine Optimization” and “SEO”.
