Heading Tags (H1–H6)

Heading tags are HTML elements, from H1 through H6, that identify headings and their relative levels within a page.

Heading tags are HTML elements, from H1 through H6, that identify headings and their relative levels within a page. A service page might use an H1 for its main subject, H2 headings for service details, and H3 headings for specific tasks. Clear heading structure helps visitors skim longer pages and can make navigation easier for people using assistive technology. Headings describe content organization, not just text that happens to look large or bold. Unlike the title tag, which describes a page in browser and search contexts, headings are part of the document itself. Use levels logically rather than choosing them only to get a preferred font size.
