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:
- Banner Text: The largest and most prominent heading for main titles and important announcements.
- Main Heading: A significant heading used to introduce major sections or topics.
- Heading: A standard heading used to divide content into smaller sections.
- Small Heading: A smaller heading used to introduce subsections or subtopics.
- Subheading: The smallest heading used to label specific points or lists.
