Sort H tags within a page

I wonder if there are problems in informing more than one H1 tag within a page, more in relation to SEO, if Google condemns this type of action.

And also, if there’s a problem with me reporting first an H2 tag and then an H1, in that order.

Does anyone know?

Yes, it is important to use only one tag <h1>, because this tag indicates the main subject addressed on your page, the main focus of the page in question.

The other Heading tags as <h2><h3><h4><h5> are like sub-titles on your page, and speaking of SEO, it would be like complementary keywords.

Examples of Heading Tags:

<h1>Buffet Infantil da Carochinha</h1>
<h2>Festas temáticas</h2>
<h3>Festas do Barney</h3>
<h3>Festas dos Angry Birds</h3>
<h3>Festa da galinha pintadinha</h3>
<h2>Venha visitar a casa na Vila Olímpia - São Paulo</h2>
<h3>Ponto de referência</h3>
<h3>Estacionamento</h3>

Note that the content of Heading tags starts from the most relevant <h1> for the least relevant <h3>, where <h1> is the main subject of the site, and the other, subjects related to the main content of <h1> in question, which yes, can be repeated, because the main focus is maintained, clarifying to the user, what the page presents mainly, and this topic, yes, with subtitles related to the title, which may be yes, more than one.

Question of hierarchy to tag h1 has visible power [1] bigger than the tag h2 and so on. Correct use is: h1 for title and others to indicate subtitle.

The only problem of using them out of order is that for the SEO the information contained may no longer be relevant.

No, it’s okay to use more than one tag H1. Don’t overdo it, of course, but if you need to use one or two more tag’s H1 no problem, said by an Eng. of Google:

Video link

  • This goes against much that I’ve read around. Is this still valid? taking into account that the video is from 2009.

  • http://static.googleusercontent.com/media/www.google.com/pt-BR//webmasters/Docs/search-engine-Optimization-Starter-guide.pdf Base document for google SEO, it doesn’t say "Don’t use", but it clearly talks about "use correctly and avoid repetition". Not least because <h1> is the main focus of the page, so there’s no reason to split the main focus into 2, it makes more sense to have a single <h1> and maybe 2 <h2> with main subtitles.

    That’s exactly what I said, there’s no problem using more than one but it’s best to avoid.

Try using a H1 for each page. Use the tag for the main title of the page, not for various items. For this, use OL

  • Instead of OL, the ideal would not be to use ul and li?

    They do almost the same thing, only ol creates orderly lists and ul disorderly.
