SEO -> multiple H1 schema on one page?
3 replies · Started by Krystian on January 21, 2020
Hello,
first of all I'd like to ask you guys what's the difference between
<h1 itemprop="headline">TEXT</h1>
and
<h1 class="entry-title" itemprop="headline">TEXT</h1>
Is class="entry-title" doing something in itself (by default), or must I first add some custom CSS for that class?
Secondly, I'd like to know whether adding multiple H1 with itemprop="headline" or class="entry-title" itemprop="headline" on ONE page would affect SEO in a negative way?
I know from video bellow, that having multiple H1 (if not too many) won't, but I'm not sure whether itemprop="headline" or class="entry-title" itemprop="headline"should be kept one per page.
Hi there,
itemprop="headline" is a piece of structured data - search engines will gather this as the title for the article container it sits within.
You can have many elements with the itemprop="headline" on a page - you will see this on blog / archive pages, each post being listed as an article, each ( by default ) with a H2 Headline.
class="entry-title" is a CSS Class that adds a specific style to the H1 content title.
SEO wise - most SEO guys are gonna tell you to have only 1 x H1 on a page or post.....
Thanks!
Have a nice day!
You're welcome
