Transpose H1 and H2 Headline
-
Hi SeoZ
Quick question, is it a problem if the H2 Element comes after the H1 Element? Also does Google recoginise it if i make the h2 font bigger than the h1?
For example:
HTML:
Awesome Headline bla bla bla
Keyword1 Keyword 2
Css:
h2 {font-size: 32px;}
h1 {font-size: 28px;}Thank you, Alex

Thank you algri.
I wouldn't do that.
I think I did something like that a long time ago, but "natural" is a much better thing to do now.
That is what google might call "doing something for the search engines,"
rather than "doing something for your readers."
If your page is really about that keyword, then I believe you would be better off getting that keyword into your page headline, which would be in the H1.
What you are doing is manipulating the power of the H1 to achieve your SEO goal, whereas you should be doing it for your reader, but structuring it so it works for the search engine as well.
I would change what you have.

No it's because of the Headline.
Headline that the Users read and like
My Keyword, which is not too interesting for the user...
Your understand?

Having H1 after H2 seems a little strange.
Are you doing that for programming purposes?
Is the H1 or the H2 the same as Title ?
It would seem more "natural" to have H1 first , followed by H2
-
I think it depends on the type of content. Natural order - that from books, newspapers etc.. is from main title to subtitle, and in my opinion it is a best solution and natural direction of crawling a site. Good example are product sheets e.g. Canon Germany site Canon Eos 1D X.
You can check it using seoMOZ On-Page Report Card, it gives you feedback about content arrangement and structure.
If you have specific content like adds you can use different structure on purpose.

Cool, thanks. What about the fact that the H2 Element comes after the H1 Element in the HTML-Code?

Hi,
In my opinion font size doesn's effect on SEO. So
is more important than
.
You can find topic in google forums - one of them: font size

H2 tags always recommended? Or ok without?
Is it ok to have no h2 tags? There are no "keywords" relevant to the product in these example h2 tags. Also, is it ok to not have a PRODUCT DESCRIPTION header, or is it better with that header? It's for a "product page". Examples: <h1>Used Bow Front Desk With Mahogany Laminate</h1> <h2 style="display:inline;">QTY:</h2> 3 - <h2 style="display:inline;">Manufacturer:</h2> Hon <h2>Product Description:</h2> <p>This bow front desk is in excellent condition. It has a beautiful mahogany laminate.</p> OR (no h2 tags or product description header at all) <h1>Used Bow Front Desk With Mahogany Laminate</h1> <p>QTY: 3 - Manufacturer: Hon</p> <p>This bow front desk is in excellent condition. It has a beautiful mahogany laminate.</p> I prefer the last one as it's much simpler, but I'm curious if search engines would prefer the existence of h2 tags in the first version. Thanks,

H1 Tags on Volusion Product Pages
So I'm working with a client who has no heading tags on his site and I'm wondering if there is an ideal method to implementing these on the product pages specifically, as the wording I ideally want to specify is is the product title, which i can't really code with an H1. Has anyone run into this issue? If so, what was your solution? Also, how vital are these heading tags on the product pages, anyways? If the Volusion SEO expert could chime in, that would be much appreciated. Thanks everyone!

Hey guys! I was looking at adding the H1 tag lower on the page than the H2 tag because I want the top bit to be a call to action. Is this proper practice?
