    Hi helper,

    Thank you for your time and support!

    Here is my question:
    What will happen if a webpage only has h1 tag and h3 tag? Is it not SEO friendly?

    Reason:
    I have this question because I have received a notice mentioned about this problem on my woocommerce product pages. These product pages only have an H1 tag for the product title and an H3 tag for the related products title (Product title screenshot: https://prnt.sc/SRqUHkj_zyxt; The related products title screenshot: https://prnt.sc/Cp7JXE1w-cSq). But unfortunately, I forgot where to find this notice. That’s why I would like to ask if it’s necessary to add H2 tag to the page content to fill the gap between H1 and H3.

    Examples:
    Shall I make all products this way?: https://petcron.hk/product/weruva-the-double-dip-cat-can/
    I have changed these wordings into H2: https://prnt.sc/RcfAAiOtbb-2
    Is this the best practice to deal with all the product pages?

    I am sorry for all the Chinese. Hope there is a translation tool helps you out.

    A further question here:
    Since the font size of H2 is quite large, which is not looking good. However, I don’t want to change the H2 font size from the theme setting just for the sake of this purpose. Am I doing right to use the “span style” to change the font size? Or shall I add a “class” to these wordings and change the CSS by “class”? Which way is a better choice in terms of website performance?
    Would this kind of CSS affect the website performance?

    I am sorry for so long. Thank you for your time and help in advance!

  • Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math and bringing your concern to our attention.

    Using H2 tags just helps search engines understand the structure of a page. It does not stop you from ranking if you don’t have H2s. They are more valuable for things like articles that have sections related to different subjects.

    Also, the H2s text helps summarise what the next paragraphs are about. For a product page, you could use H2s to split up sections of your description if you talk about several aspects of the product you have made.

    Regarding CSS, classes are generally better for performance than inline styles.

    Hope that helps.

    Thank you.
