Blog Post Headers for SEO

[writeitdown]

I'm new to blogging and have read that using headers in sequence is really important. I'm using wordpress with Pinksimplemagazine theme.
When I write a blogpost, I can't be sure that the blogpost title in the title box is H1. Is the proper location in the title box or in the body of the post itself? I have managed to put an H1 header in the main body itself.
Advice please. Have looked elsewhere on the net but remained confused.

Your post title should be H1 and then H2, H3 etc should follow for your sub paragraphs.

However, your theme defines whether the post title is H1 or not, and the easiest way to check is to view the source code of one of your posts (in Firefox its View>Page Source from the menu).

Cheers,

Martin.

Thanks Able Dragon, will try that!

you can easily check this in source code of post. Or simply select the title and doing right click, go to "view selection source". This will show you heading(h1 or h2) of your blog post title.

Using H1 Tag and H2 tag in your blog header is a good way but only when you use your main keyword in the title. You have to create post title after research and with the help of tools!
