Default Re: Are H1 H2 Tags Important

Yes, in my own experience as well, H tags are important and so are bold tags.BE careful though as overusing the tags can have a negative impact. During an optimisation campaign for my web design company website I got carried away and was using 8 H1 tags on my homepage. After careful consideration and seeing my rank drop a few pages I back traced my steps and reduced the header tags to 2 or 3. As a result of that my rank has gone back up a few pages for my keywords.

Also note that only h2 , h2 and h3 are really important. After that the weight age is significantly reduced. e.g. h5 or h6 will not benefit your ranking in anyway while h1 and h2 will.
