HTML5 – Headings

Headings are used to denote the importance of a section of content on a web page. In HTML5, there are six levels of headings, ranging from h1 (the most important) to h6 (the least important).

Here is an example of how to use headings in HTML5:

<h1>This is a level 1 heading</h1>
<h2>This is a level 2 heading</h2>
<h3>This is a level 3 heading</h3>
<h4>This is a level 4 heading</h4>
<h5>This is a level 5 heading</h5>
<h6>This is a level 6 heading</h6>

Headings are important for several reasons:

  • They help to structure the content of a web page and make it easier to scan and read.
  • They provide a hierarchy of information, making it clear to readers what is most important and what is less important.
  • They are used by search engines to understand the content and structure of a web page.

It is generally a good idea to use headings consistently and appropriately on your web pages. For example, you might use h1 for the main heading of a page, h2 for subheadings, and h3 for sub-subheadings, etc.
