          Hi everyone,

          I am trying to add span tags in H1, break tag on 2 lines and style each line of H1 differently:

          Example:

          Line 1Line 2

          I might add a smaller font for line 2 as well... Is this SEO friendly?

          Will crawlers read entire text or can interfere and block it.

          Thank you!

              Looking at your code example, you will have a single H1 on your page.  That is fine and recommended.

              The rest of what you are doing is styling.  Search engines will not care about that as long as you are not playing games like white text on a white background, etc.

                I agree with most of what  Roman said 2 h1 will not be the end of the world.

                still I thin it is something I would avoid I would use the h1 as the on page introduction and then use as many  h2’s

                as needed Google still looks at the h1 tag

                google dose try to look at your site design it crawls css & JS like in fetch as a Google Bot

                Hope that helps,

                Tom

                  The Crawler looks for content not for design technically you are talking about how to style your H1. That is a CSS topic you don't have to worry about that as long your tag and your content is relevant.

                    Is single H1 tag still best practice?

                    Hi Guys, Is having a single h1 tag still best practice for SEO? Guessing multiple h1 tags dilute the value of the tag and keywords within the tag. Thoughts? Cheers.

                    SEO Impact of External links in JS tag

                    We have our JS tag and iframe tag being used over by 100 leading websites. What would be the SEO impact if we added a follow link in the iframe. Would it have any negative impact ? Vivek

                    Null Alt Image Tags vs Missing Alt Image Tags

                    Hi, Would it be better for organic search to have a null alt image tag programatically added to thousands of images without alt image tags or just leave them as is. The option of adding tailored alt image tags to thousands of images is not possible. Is having sitewide alt image tags really important to organic search overall or what? Right now, probably 10% of the sites images have alt img tags. A huge number of those images are pages that aren Thanks!

                    Onsite SEO vs Offsite SEO

                    Hey I know the importance of both onsite & offsite, primarily with regard to outreach/content/social. One thing I am trying to determine at the moment, is how much do I invest in offsite. My current focus is to improve our onpage content on product pages, which is taking some time as we have a small team. But I also know our backlinks need to improve. I'm just struggling on where to spend my time. Finish the onsite stuff by section first, or try to do a bit of both onsite/offsite at the same time?

                    508 compliance vs good SEO re: Image alt tags

                    I'm currently in debate with our 508 compliance team over the use of alt tags on images. For SEO, it is best practice to use alt tags so that readers can tell what the image represents. However, they are arguing that these images should NOT have alt text as it doesn't add anything to the disability screen reader as the image text would be repetitive with the text on the page. I feel they are taking the "decorative" image concept in 508 compliance too far. It's intention is for images for bullets, etc that truly are decorative in nature and add no benefit to the reader. What is the communities thoughts on this? Have you ever run into scenario where 508 is attempting to ruin SEO? Usually the 2 play nicely.

                    Yoast seo title question

                    I was referred to this plugin and have found it to be the most irritating and poorly designed plugin in the world. I want to be able to set my titles without it changing my page headers as well. For instance - If I set my title to be "This is my article name | site name" it will make my H1 tag read the same. I do not want or desire this nonsense. Why would they think this is something wise? Why would I want my site name on every single H1 tag on my site? How can I fix this? I only want my title to be my title. I want my H1 tag to remain the post/page name that I define in wordpress.

                    Does an H1 have to be at the top of a page?

                    Because H1 "may" carry some  weight with Google does it have to be placed at the top of the page?  Can I place it towards the bottom of the page instead in normal body size?  My goal is to keep the main keywords in the H1 but create a much friendlier title for the customer to read at the top of the page.

                    URL Shorteners. Are they SEO Friendly?

                    Do URL shortener services like bit.ly act as 301 redirects? I was thinking about utilizing one for longer query based URLs and didn't want to risk losing link juice. Thanks for the insight! Regards - Kyle
