H tags
-
I am hearing all about the benefits of H tags and I tried to use them in my wordpress blog. The way I did, I used the paragraph drop down and made the selected text h1 or h2 , but size of these tags are huge . Can you help me what is the trick?
Also, Can I have more than one H2 tag. For example my article title seems to be H1 by default(by the wordpress) then can I make just my subtitles in the body of the article H2. Then I will have for example 5 H2 sentences spreaded all over the body.
Thanks

Hi Claudia,
The first H1 one is for the blog and the second one is for the article. It seems to be right because if you go to the blog main page there are many H1. One for the blog page and then one for each article. Please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks

Hi Calaudio,
I am looking for a way to eliminate the extra H1. But about the photo, I enter all the information including the title but I do not know why it does not appear. Please have a look at the attached photo.
Thanks,
Armin

Dear Armin,
I see your page, which has an error you has two H1 tags, the first is:
class="blog-title">Blog
(it should be an error of the plug-in and the second is fine:
class="entry-title">How Persian Girls Can Attract Men They Like
, the image Persian-girls-12-300x200.jpg (your image post, includes the ALT value correct, I suggest to include the TITLE tag with the same value of the ALT tag (the ALT tag is for search engines and the TITLE is for visitors) and both should see the same.
Please make the changes and let me know
Claudio

BTW, Focus keyword is "Persian girls"

The first H1 is fine, (only one H1 on the body is allowed), when I refer to the title I was talking about the <title>tag, make sure your <title> tag on the <header> of the page is identical to your H1.</p> <p>Also I recommend to add as H2 subtitles with variants of the H1.</p> <p>When you finish, you can show me one page to let me test it.</p> <p>Hope it help</p> <p>Claudio</p></title>

Thanks a lot for your help. I set and it is great. I have another question I hope you do not mind.
As you know there is a title field when you make a new article. Do I need to treat it as the H1 tag. And then in the body of my article add h2,3,4,5,. Or I should enter H1 in the body of my article as well. To test I entered a H1 tag in the body of my article and went to the page source this is what I got:
Word press title is shown as :
How to Be the Man Girls Die for
The H1 tag in the body which I added:
Being wanted
Can you tell me if I need to add H1 in the body again or the one produced by wordpress is enough and I should start with H2,3,4,..
Thank you so very much.

Sure this should be really easy to get going, you can start with this:

Hi Vadim,
Thanks for your response. Do you know any plugins that can do that for me. I have very minimum knowledge of wordpress and I had quick look at plugins. But there are tons of them with so many technicality.
Thanks

Hello Armin,
You should use only one H1 tag on your page, the recommendation is include on it the page title (title tag).
Also you can use other H2 and H3 etc, no limitations but you should care about keyword dilusion and care about not sound as keyword spammer.
Actually I'm using one H1 identical to my title tag, and two or three H2's
Hope it help

H tags can have different fonts and sizes and this is usually controlled with the CSS on your Wordpress site. If you are not familiar with CSS, you might have two options. Higher end Wordpress themes, give you the ability to easily customize your font sizes in headings, body text, menus etc. If this is not available, being Wordpress is known to have a plugin for pretty much everything, you can try out the many font customization plugins to see which gives you the option to change heading sizes.
-
Generally have only one H1 heading, as a page title, and then you can have multiple H2-5 tags
Hope this helps!

Links from Directory Websites with NoFollow Tag
In reviewing our root domain links, I noticed that many of the directories (like Yellow Pages, Insider Pages, Merchant Circle, etc) that there are no follow codes included in the link to our website. Is this a common practice for these directories? Also, I wanted to confirm that this would not help in our link building strategies with any relevant "link juice." Below is a copy and pasted (with some extra characters that shouldn't have copy and pasted), but the key note here is the no follow tag that was included in this link to our site. Visit Website Thanks as always MOZ Community - cheers!

Title Tag Length
Here is my question, I know that after 70 characters or a certain pixel width. Google cuts off your title tag in the SERPS. I also know it will still index title tags up to 255 characters I think it is,. My question is if I have words or characters after the 70 characters limit. will this show up in the search? Or will Google only look at the first 70 characters in terms of relevance? I hope that makes sense thanks. Peter

Title Tag Targeting 3 or 4 keywords: Downsides to link building?
Hello, I've got a client who's title tags for an internal page are like (just for example) Running Shoes | Runner's Shoe | Performance Shoe | Cross-trainer That are doing fabulous in the search engines, dominating for most of the terms and dominating for word combinations off of these 4 terms. Sometimes there's no other category to split these up into two keywords a piece, to optimize for less would reduce traffic and conversions. My question is, is this going to look bad when we go to do outreach and guest posting? What are the downsides of leaving a few of the pages like this in the link building arena?

Same Page, Multiple URLS- Canonical tag? Redirect?
I just read this article about how google views multiple versions of the same page as different pages of duplicate content. My website, www.telikin.com currently has many versions of the home page. There is: www.telikin.com
Link Building | | Telikin
www.telikin.com/index
www.telikin.com/index.php
www.telikin.com/index.php/ All of these seem to be their own URLS, If i use the open site explorer tool to search for links pointing to these URLS, the www.telikin.com domain shows about 700 links, and the www.telikin.com/index.php shows about 63 links. My questions: Is my SEO suffering as a result of having these different pages? Does google realize that links pointing to www.telikin.com/index.php should count towards the seo of the www.telikin.com page? If this is hurting my company's website, how do I solve this problem? I am not versed as a webmaster, so I don't understand what the best course of action would be. Should I request that our webmaster somehow redirects all traffic from the other URLS to the main www.telikin.com URL? Should I be using canonical tags on all important pages? If i do, for example, use a canonical tag on the www.telikin.com page, will Google then know to send all link juice from the www.telikin.com/index.php page to the www.telikin.com page? We also have a Joomla blog that seems to duplicate pages many times over, but that is a problem that I will have to address another time. Any comments/suggestions are more than welcome. Thanks, Dave0 -
Is bold text anchor link worth the higher price tag in directory listing?
Does it make a difference with Google if anchor link text is bold? The niche directory is offering regular lifetime listing for $199 (actual page pr 6) or bold for $349 (same page, same position). Also bold link has option of including email address. Does email address have any effect on SEO? Seems like a bad deal for bold, isn't it?

Is there any reason why a link within an <area> tag would not be counted as correct backlink?
Is there any reason why a link within an <area> tag would not be counted as correct backlink? In this example there is no <a> tag, so will this still be considered a link?</a>

No-Follow Tag and Advertising
Hiya! I've got a relatively new domain, and one of my goals is to be 100% white hat, squeaky clean as I really would love to see my site succeed in the long term. So far my linkbuilding efforts are going pretty well. I'm beginning to buy some ads, and some of the bloggers I'm buying ads from don't use advertising networks, they just host your jpeg from their own blog... For the little picture that will show up in the side column of their blog should this be no-followed? And if it's not do we know if google assigns a penalty? I'm ok with asking the blogger to do that, but I notice my competition is not (and I know they know better) so I feel like it puts me at a bit of a disadvantage. Secondly - I'm 100% avoiding sites that sell text links (even ones with high pagerank, like pagerank 6), is this the right path to go? I read this article from Matt Cutts and was wondering if this is still true, reputable sites that sell links maintain their pagerank but aren't able to pass pagerank? http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/text-links-and-pagerank/ "Reputable sites that sell links won’t have their search engine rankings or PageRank penalized–a search for [daily cal] would still return dailycal.org. However, link-selling sites can lose their ability to give reputation (e.g. PageRank and anchortext)."
