How should I handle headings (H1/H2) for SEO?
Simple heading rules that keep pages clear for users and search engines.
Headings are structure. They should help customers scan and help search engines understand page topic.
Safe rules
- Use one primary page heading that describes the page.
- Use H2 for major sections (details, shipping, FAQ).
- Use H3 for subsections under an H2.
Common mistakes
- Using headings purely for styling (use theme typography controls instead).
- Repeating the same heading text across many pages.
- Making the logo or navigation the "main heading".
Practical guidance by page type
- Product pages: product title is typically the main heading.
- Collection pages: collection title is typically the main heading.
- Custom pages: choose a clear "topic" heading that matches the intent.
