      Hi,

      If a page in the source code has boht following elements:

      class="blogg_rubrik">TITLE OF THE PAGE

      • Is that bad for SEO, since the first H1 is empty?

      • Shouldn't a page use only one H1?

        Definitely bad practice. You can have a class in the first h1 but there should be only one h1 to be semantically correct.

        The exception is HTML5 where you can have multiple h1s per block but the above is not HTML5 by the looks.

          You should not use more than one H1

          http://perthseocompany.com.au/seo/reports/violation/the-page-contains-multiple-h1-tags

          Having said that, with HTML5 and the use of the

          tag, It has been suggested you can use more then one if they are in different articles, but Bing or Google have not stated an opinion on this yet

            You can use 2 h1 tags but if the first one is empty than you surely don't need that

              Customer Reviews on Product Page / Pagination / Crawl 3 review pages only

              reviews pagination crawler disallow

              Hi experts, I present customer feedback, reviews basically, on my website for the products that are sold. And with this comes the ability to read reviews and obviously with pagination to display the available reviews. Now I want users to be able to flick through and read the reviews to help them satisfy whatever curiosity they have. My only thinking is that the page that contains the reviews, with each click of the pagination will present roughly the same content. The only thing that changes is the title tags which will contain the number in the H1 to display the page number. I'm thinking this could be duplication but i have yet to be notified by Google in my Search console... Should i block crawlers from crawling beyond page 3 of reviews? Thanks

              Should search pages be indexed?

              Hey guys, I've always believed that search pages should be no-indexed but now I'm wondering if there is an argument to index them? Appreciate any thoughts!

              Removed Product page on our website, what to do

              We just removed an entire product category on our website, (product pages still exist, but will be removed soon as well) Should we be setting up re-directs, or can we simply delete this category and product 
              pages and do nothing? We just received this in Google Webmasters tools: Google detected a significant increase in the number of URLs that return a 404 (Page Not Found) error. We have not updated the sitemap yet...Would this be enough to do or should we do more? You can view our website here: http://tinyurl.com/6la8 We removed the entire "Spring Planted Category"

              SEO value of InDesign pages?

              Hi there, my company is exploring creating an online magazine built with Adobe's InDesign toolset. If we proceeded with this, could we make these pages "as spiderable" as normal html/css webpages? Or are we limited to them being less spiderable, or not at all spiderable?

              How to determine which pages are not indexed

              Is there a way to determine which pages of a website are not being indexed by the search engines? I know Google Webmasters has a sitemap area where it tells you how many urls have been submitted and how many are indexed out of those submitted. However, it doesn't necessarily show which urls aren't being indexed.

              Hreflang on non-canonical pages

              Hi! I've been trying to figure out what is the best way to solve this dilemma with duplicate content and multiple languages across domains. 1 product info page 2 same product but GREEN
              3 same product but RED
              4 same product but YELLOW **Question: ** Since pages 2,3,4 just varies slightly I use the canonical tag to indicate they are duplicates of page 1. Now I also want to indicate there are other language versions with the_ rel="alternate" hreflang="x" _element. Should I place the _rel="alternate" hreflang="x" _on the canonical page only pointing to the canonical page with "x" language. Should I place the _rel="alternate" hreflang="x" _on all pages pointing to the canonical page with the "x" language? Should I place the _rel="alternate" hreflang="x"  _on all pages and then point it to the translated page (even if it is not a canonical page) ? /Lars
