Write descriptive headings for readers

Visible headings should tell a reader what each section covers.

Why it matters

Useful headings make long pages easier to scan and can clarify the page topic. One H1 is a sensible editorial pattern, not a strict Google ranking requirement.

Do it step by step

  1. 1

    Read the page headings without the paragraphs.

  2. 2

    Replace vague labels with specific section descriptions.

  3. 3

    Make the main heading reflect the page’s real topic.

  4. 4

    Check that headings do not overpromise or repeat the same phrase mechanically.

Example

“What the audit includes” tells more than “Our solution.”

Check your work

A reader can understand the page outline from its headings alone.

Complete when

The selected page has clear, accurate, non-repetitive headings.
