      Recently on my Scheduled MOZ report, I got an error shows under "content error" for missing "H1 heading" for my following 3 pages: privacy policy, contact us and FAQ... Is it really necessary for those pages? I have a large image and good meta description for us and to the best of my knowledge search engines does not really need H1 for such pages as described. Please, your opinion. Thanks!

        Hi Yossi0721,

        Having H1 tags in those pages is completely up to you. And as long those pages aren't important for your business to rank in google better, then don't correct that "errors".

        The fact that Google shouldn't need H1 tags for those pages (privacy policy, contact us and FAQ) is just a judgement of yours. You are considering that those page are of no interest for your users. But Google might think differently.

        That said, remember that Moz reports are automated and dont diferenciate at that minimum pages. So, as long as you change that H1 problem, there will continue to alert about that "mistake".

        Hope it helps.
        Best luck
