Headings
Built into HTML is the ability to describe the content that you are creating by the tags you use for each element or information. The tag used to describe the headings on the page is the heading tag also known as h1, h2, h3, h4, h5 and h6.
The Headings on all of your pages should be placed on the page in order of importance. These tags (h1...h6) describe the importance of each heading h1 being the most important and h6 being the least important. So the most important heading on the page which should be the title/main heading of the page should use the Tag h1. On each page you should only have one main heading thus the h1 tag should only be used once on the page. and the information after that should use h2-h6. These Heading should always be used a in the order that they were intended so the h4 should be a sub-heading of h3 and the h3 should be the sub heading of a h2.
