What are Headings?

Headings are essential tools for structuring your content. By establishing a visual hierarchy, you can emphasize key points and improve readability. A well-structured hierarchy helps you achieve your website's goals: raising awareness, educating your audience, or driving conversions.

The site's content is built on the principle of a hierarchy of elements - from largest to smallest. It consists of:

  1. Header 1: The largest and most prominent heading for main titles and important announcements.
  2. Header 2: A significant heading used to introduce major sections or topics.
  3. Header 3: A sub-heading used to further organize major sections into more specific topics.
  4. Header 4: A standard heading used to divide content into smaller sections.
  5. Header 5: A smaller heading used to introduce subsections or subtopics.
  6. Header 6: The smallest heading used to label specific points or lists.

Please refer to the Improving SEO in Site Editor article to learn about the best practices on how to use Headings for SEO & Accessibility.
