How to manage your headings (Hn)?

Headings refer to a hierarchic level:

headings

Your website structure is essential to rank high on search engines. Your pages should be structured in some ways, and start with a Heading 1 (H1).

Then each title should be followed by a paragraph with normal text. If you respect this rule, your text will be easier to read for your visitors and search engines will appreciate it.

💡 Don’t hesitate to add your keywords to your titles naturally, and remember that your titles should describe your content.
