        The only limit that I'm aware of is that you shouldn't use more than one H1

          There's no clear cut limit of how many heading tags you can use. As a rule of thumb, if it makes sense, use them.

          Careful about placing too many however and using keywords in all of them, as Google might regard this as keyword stuffing.

            I agree, bing for example say only one H1, but for other tags there is no limit, my concern is that it sounds like you my have a problem with keyword stuffing if the page reads un-naturally.

              There are no limits, but as it is a rule of thumb that only the first h1 will count as h1, I'm sure Google has a way to discredit any xth h2 and beyond. I would use common sense to pick the more important title tags as h2 and classify the others as h3, and h4 so that you are sure that Google gives more value to the the more important titles than not.

                I am going to agree with everyone here and add that while there are not "limits" on the other H-tags, they don't hold much value anymore. Don't use this as a "tactic" to rank. Spend your time on other things specifically on building relationships in your industry.
