Heading Hierarchy

In plain words

Heading hierarchy is the structured use of H1 through H6 tags to organize a page's content in a logical order, with one H1 as the main title and nested subheadings beneath it. A clean hierarchy helps visitors scan content, helps search engines understand topic structure, and helps AI systems extract answers to feed into generated responses.

Example

One H1 for the page topic, H2s for each section and H3s inside them. Never jumping from H1 straight to H4 to make text smaller.

Start with clean technical SEO — fast load times, proper heading structure, mobile responsiveness — then build content around what your actual customers are searching for. Most sites over-invest in keywords and under-invest in structure. Google needs to crawl and understand your site before content quality even matters. Fix the technical foundation first, then focus content on answering real customer questions clearly.
