Clarification Tag h1 / h2

  • Hello everyone I’m new in the forum (hope the section is right)

    I’ve recently started a blog (hosted on tiscali) with MH Themes

    I started to reading the “bible” of www.ads-software.com so i “find” in this article:

    https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Designing_Headings

    From what I understand to improve the SEO of a website it is appropriate to include tags H1 and H2 and so on in the site structure to facilitate the job of googlebot

    Taking a test on this website (https://seositecheckup.com/) my blog lack of these tags

    The problem is that I did not understand how to incorporate them … ??

    I have to change the css of my theme or what?

    Thanks for the help

  • Those tags are HTML elements.

    Some are added programatically. For instance, the main title of your post will be an h1 or an h2. When you edit the post and select heading levels in the editor WordPress will add the relevant HTML.

    You should view those headings as hierarchical. So h1 is the top level of a page or section. H2 would be subservient to that and an h3 would be subservient to the h2.

    Does that make sense?

    That’s a brief intro but note, especially in HTML 5, there is still some debate about whether you should only ever use one h1 element.

    Thank u for reply…i NOT wanna sound arrogant or similar…

    but i have not still understund how add this into css of my theme

    which section i have need to change???

    The tags themselves are not added in CSS. They are HTML and are added as WordPress builds the page from templates.

    Some parts of your page will use header tags so for instance a site title might be a h1 and the page title a h2. The way they are added is dependent on the theme.

    Having said that, when you add the content either in publishing a page or a post, you can add HTML elements too including the important header tags. There is a dropdown list in the editor that allows you to make some text as a header which will do so by adding the HTML h1 to h6 elements.

    My earlier point above was to say that these header tags should be used to structure your content.

    If you want to style those elements say, by changing the color or size or the font used, then you need to think about CSS.
