      Hi, my site is www.in2town.co.uk and i am looking at ranking for lifestyle magazine but i am a bit worried.

      The titles of the articles on the home page are h2, and i am just wondering if i should change this to h3 as it may get confusing for google.

      Can anyone let me know if i should keep the article titles as h2 or if i am right that they need to be changed to h3 or something else

      any help would be great

        Overall, won't make a huge difference. It you want to be perfect, I think this would be the best setup.

        Example page: http://www.in2town.co.uk/health-magazine

        • H1= Health magazine - Fitness, Nutrition, News, Weight Loss
        • H2 = The health magazine for men's health, women's health, childrens health & healthy living
        • H3 = Article titles

        On an article page, make the title of the article H1.

        • If I want to rank well on one keyword would it be better to optimize multiple pages on the website for the keyword or should I only optimize one page for that keyword?

        • Should H1s be used in the logo? If they are and it is dynamic on each page to relate to the page content, is this detrimental to the site rather than having it in the page content?
