Why Checking Heading Tags Matters for SEO

HTML heading tags play a vital role in structuring content and indicating hierarchy on a page. For SEO and accessibility:

  • They help search engines understand the main topics and subtopics of your content.
  • They provide structure for users, making content easier to scan and read.
  • An tag is typically used for the main title of the page and is a strong indicator of the page’s primary topic.
  • Using headings logically (`h1` followed by `h2`s, `h2`s followed by `h3`s, etc.) improves content organization.

This tool helps you quickly audit the heading structure of any page to ensure it’s logical and optimized.
