Most of us heard may have heard the use of heading tags in a website, but do not why or what advantage it has? Well use of heading tags increases the ranking of site in search engine or helping the SEO. The Heading tags have 6 levels that start from H1 to H6, importance starting from H1 to H6.
Among those 6 tags, the H1 Tag is considered very important as per SEO Strategy. The Search Engine robots look for these tags & heading & content present in them. That is why the H1 tag includes the title so that it can notice by the search engines. Take care to insert rich content in the section of H1 tag so that the visitors can show interest in reading it, leading them to browse further pages of the site. One includes the title of the page between these tags. Next tag is the H2 Tag, which can be used for sub heading. The H3 tag can be used for the titles of various sections present in the content & in between tags of H4, H5, H6 the sub headings can be used.
The Use of keywords in all the levels of H tags add a great value because the crawlers or the search engine robots come across website or a specific page by a common or popular keyword set related to that content or subject of the website. The better the keywords present the tags, the higher will be the ranking of the site. Let me also mention that the interpretation of Header tags depends also on the type of browser used. That means the ranking of received in a Internet explorer will not be the same as found in the Firebox browser. Proper knowledge & use of header tags helps in better SEO leading to higher ranking of the website.
Remember the opening & closing of the tags is important, if one has opened a H1 tag like <H1> then the closing of the tag has to be done like this </H1>.Forgetting to close the heading tag may lead to confusion & the search engine robots may not come across your keywords.
It can be mentioned that these Header tags are very important in the optimization of the Site as per suggested by SEO Experts also. They draw the visitor’s attention to the content associated with the title or sub titles present in each type of header tags. Also avoid or control the use of too many header tags in one site.
