What is a HTML header tag to help with the SEO online rankings and are they simple to place into our websites?. HTML Headers and can have a dramatic effect on your SEO rankinks online if done poorly. When done correctly, header tags can improve your position in the google seo ranking factors overnight.

Off course, this is not a miracle fix. If you haven't got good quality content throughout your website, you won't rate!!


What Is A Header HTML?

A header html tag separates the content on a post or page. They can be placed as your headings and subheadings. For example, I always use an H1 heading at the beginning of a new post or page. The H1 heading must include your page title keyword and be placed at the start of your heading.

Say my page title on a new post was; Learning To Drive. WordPress by default adds the Title HTMLTag; Learning To Drive which you will see on publishing a new page. Just under the main title, click down 2 spaces and add the H1 header tag. Your header tag, like the WordPress Title Tag must contain the same information of what your page is about. For example; H1 Tag, Learning To Drive The Safe Way. As you can see, Iv'e kept the title keyword in the main body of the H1 Tag.

This practice is not well known, but can improve Search Engine Bots experience in determining what your page is all about.


Title Tags And H1 Header Tags

You can follow the same principle with the H2 and H3 tags. I normally add a image just under my H1 heading, and place my title keyword upon downloading. Under the image you can place your H2 Tag as follows: Learning To Drive Safetly For Less.

Under the H2 tag you can now add your brief description of what the page is about. This is done by using a H3 tag

Learning to drive the safe way can be accomplished by ect,ect. This page was set up to teach folks to ect, ect.

Only put these 3 header tags at the top of your web page. Once completed, you can use your H2 tag to start of your topics.


Best Methods to Learn How To Drive

Write as normally from here using plain text. But be aware, only use your TITLE KEYWORD no more than 5 times on a single page.

Hi - it looks as though you don't have a header, a title for your post. H1 refers to the size and is typically only used in the title of your post.

Did you write in Site Content? It usually makes it the correct size when you add your title to the post.

It seems you are missing a title for this page.

Hi - so, have you actually written a post called about my happy fur buddy?

yes I have... so I should not have that in the header? I think I might understand lol

Hi - in that post, have you added a title to it? That is what the error is suggesting, that you don't have a title for the post.

thank you so much, I would never have worked that out for myself!
