How to Add Keywords to Heading to 1s (H1s)
Heading 1s, or H1, are frequently used alone for the article’s primary title. You’re essentially begging Google to become confused if you utilize many H1 tags in your text. Instead, limit your content title to a single H1 that includes your main keyword.
Adding keywords to Heading 1s (H1s) is an important aspect of search engine optimization (SEO) and can help improve the visibility of your content in search results.
Here are some tips on how to add keywords to your H1s in Shopify:
- Research your keywords: Before you start writing your content, research relevant keywords that your target audience is searching for. Use keyword research tools to identify high-volume and low-competition keywords that you can use in your H1s.
- Use descriptive H1s: When writing your H1s, make sure they accurately describe the main topic or purpose of the content. Incorporate your target keywords into the H1 in a way that feels natural and does not compromise the readability or clarity of the text.
- Limit your use of H1s: As mentioned earlier, it’s best to use one single H1 tag on each page. This means that you should only use your target keyword once in the H1 tag. Overusing your target keyword can be seen as spammy by search engines and may harm your SEO efforts.
- Make it engaging: The H1 tag is the first thing that users see when they land on a page, so it’s important to make it engaging and appealing. Use language that grabs the reader’s attention and encourages them to continue reading.
- Test and refine: Monitor your search rankings and website analytics to see how your H1s are performing. Adjust and refine your keywords and H1s as needed to optimize your content for search engines and users.
By incorporating relevant keywords into your H1s in a natural and effective way, you can help improve the visibility and ranking of your content in search results.
