How do I fix the h1 tag?

No More Than One H1 Tag
Easy fix
<dl>
<dt>Number of H1s</dt>
<dd>2</dd>
<dt>Explanation</dt>
<dd>Best practices for both SEO and accessibility require only a single H1 tag. The H1 is meant to be the page's headline, and thus, multiple H1s are confusing. Consider employing H2, H3 or CSS styles to achieve the same results with text visualization.</dd>
<dt>Recommendation</dt>
<dd>Remove multiple instances of the H1 tag, so that only one exists on the page.</dd>
<dd>I get this error yet it does not tell me how to fix it. I'm not even sure what the H1 tag is?
</dd></dl>

What is H1?
Go to the page, right click between the page and click ‘view page source’ on other window will open the code page… on the code page press ‘ctrl+F’ and search ‘
’… text between
and
is considered to be the tag H1.
How to fix two H1s?
I suppose you are using the common HTML… so download the page, open it in the Macromedia Dreamweaver or notepad. And remove the H1 which you think its less important…save and upload the files again.
Most of the times this hurts the CSS so I would recommend you to consult your designer or developer to do this job for you.

I would not worry about multiple H1 as a major issue .( as long you are not over doing it )

Meta Title Tags - Quick question!
Hi all, Our category Meta Title Tags are a little woeful and so I'm in the process of rewriting them. Let's say you have a product for sale.... some inkjet cartridges for a Canon BJ10V printer for example. In an effort to keep things concise I was thinking that for this category I should have the meta title set simply as: 'Canon BJ10V Inkjet Cartridges' and perhaps our company name after this text (and a pipe delimiter) This takes us just under 50 characters which is ideal but doesn't include any real keyword variation and will result in the company name being duplicated at the tail of the title tag on 6,000 odd pages. A large number of my competitors have title tags along the lines of: 'Canon BJ10V Cheap Inkjet Cartridges for Canon BJ-10V Ink Printers' I understand the reasoning behind this but does the variation of keywords compensate for the fact that the title looks spammy (to both humans and Search Engines). What would you do? Keep it clean and concise or stuff the title full of keywords. In the event of the former would you include the company name in each title in the knowledge they would be well under 50 characters without? Thanks for your help.

How to fix it?
I have a website on Wix with the domain spinteedubai.com. But I want to transfer the same website into the wordpress. In order for me to transfer the current domain www.spinteedubai.com from Wix to Hostgator, there is a 60 day waiting period. Which means, i will not be able to transfer until April 1, 2014. So, in terms of next steps and impact on SEO , what do you suggest we do ? 1. Wait till April and transfer the current domain name ?

2. Register another domain and put the site up immediately while keeping the wix site (so we would have for example: www.spintee.ae &www.spinteedubai.com. But my understanding is that google does not like to see 2 site exactly the same.0 -

Duplicate title tags and meta description tags
According to GWT, it seems that some of the pages on my website have duplicate title and meta tags. The pages identified by Google are nothing but dynamic pages: http://www.mywebsite.com/page.php

http://www.mywebsite.com/page.php?param=2 The thing is that I do use the canonical link tag on all pages. Should I also use the "robots noindex" tag when the page is invoked using a GET parameter? Again sorry for my english. Thank you, Stephane1 -
