Glossary/H-tags

For example: <h1>What the heading says</h1>

• the text that will be displayed on the web page.

Headings help you structure the content of a web page. The H1 tag indicates the overall topic of the page, and each subhead tag – H2, H3, and so on – indicates a subtopic of the page.

The H1 tag is the most important. When it's properly written, it quickly, clearly and concisely outlines what people and search engines can expect to find there.
