In this tutorial, you will learn HTML Headings
HTML headings are used to create different levels of headings and subheadings on a web page. They are defined by the <h1> through <h6> tags, with <h1> being the highest level heading and <h6> being the lowest.
Here’s an example of some HTML headings in a web page:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>My Web Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Welcome to My Web Page</h1>
<h2>About Us</h2>
<p>We are a company that provides high-quality services in the field of web development.</p>
<h3>Our Services</h3>
<ul>
<li>Web Design</li>
<li>Web Development</li>
<li>Search Engine Optimization</li>
</ul>
<h4>Contact Us</h4>
<p>Email: [email protected]</p>
<p>Phone: 555-555-5555</p>
</body>
</html>
In this example, the <h1> tag is used to create the main heading of the web page, “Welcome to My Web Page”. The <h2> tag is used to create a subheading, “About Us”. Then <h3> is used for “Our Services” and <h4> is used for “Contact Us”
It’s important to note that the headings create a hierarchical structure, so it is recommended to use only one <h1> tag per page, and then use the other heading tags in descending order to create the subheadings. This will help search engines and screen readers understand the structure of the content on your web page and convey the importance of each section.
Also, headings are used to give an idea about the content of the section, this is why it is important to use descriptive, accurate and precise headings.
That’s a basic tutorial on HTML headings. You’ll discover more ways to use headings and other techniques to create a clear and readable structure for your web pages as you continue to learn web development.
Headings are important
Headings are important in HTML because they provide a way to structure the content of a web page, making it easier for both users and search engines to understand the organization of the information on the page. Headings are used to create a hierarchy of information, with H1 being the highest level and H6 the lowest. This hierarchy makes it clear which information is the most important and allows users to quickly scan the page to find the information they are looking for. Additionally, search engines use headings to understand the content of a web page, which can affect how the page is indexed and ranked in search results.
