Therefore, it&rsquo;s important to use keywords in headings too.<\/p><p class=\"no-margin\">There are six levels of headings: from Heading 1 (H1) to Heading 6 (H6), with H1 being considered the most essential. Here&rsquo;s how you can exploit the hierarchy of headings for SEO purposes:<\/p><ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"no-margin\">Use <b>H1<\/b> for titles that include your main keywords:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<p class=\"no-margin\">Make sure the H1 heading is located at the top of your page and before any other headings.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"no-margin\">Avoid using multiple H1 tags on the same page: this can confuse search engines and dilute the focus of your content.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"no-margin\">Use <b>H2<\/b> to break up your content into sections, using similar keywords to the H1 tag.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p class=\"no-margin\">Use <b>H3<\/b> to break up the content into smaller sections.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul><div class=\"intercom-container intercom-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/08\/4327d59f-c2c2-4f1b-88d7-3e6d9947fda9.jpg\" width=\"400\"><\/div><p class=\"no-margin\">If you set Heading 1 as a text element&rsquo;s style, the text will automatically have a &lt;h1&gt; tag in your website&rsquo;s code:<\/p><p>&nbsp;<\/p><div class=\"intercom-container intercom-align-center\"><code>&lt;img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.hostinger.io\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/08\/74c11aee-5c8c-4ec6-9577-18027fc5c1c7.jpg\" alt=\"In the website's source code, the tag is visible for the text written in Heading 1 style\"&gt;<\/code><\/div><p>&nbsp;<\/p><p class=\"no-margin\">Remember to use your best keywords there.
