Optimizing Content with H1, H2, and H3 Tags
Using header tags such as H1, H2, and H3 can improve the SEO of articles. The H1 tag should identify the main topic, while H2 tags divide the content into main sections, and H3 tags delve deeper into those sections. Structuring content with these tags makes it more readable and helps search engines understand the content better. Creating straightforward titles is more effective, and content should be delivered accordingly.
