H1 H2 H3 Help needed

[Stuart-ty]

Do I need to include H1 for H2, H3, H4 etc, to work?

The landing page says that the logo is H1 which means I can't add H1 to any text headings because there will be two on the page.

But, when I run a test of the landing page, it tells me there isn't any H1 on the page!

Does anyone know if I can add H1 to a text heading without it effecting my website in search?

@Stuart-ty you are literally putting cart before the horse.  For a new website your focus should be on creating visually appealing content rich website the visitors would like to explore.  Those tags and other stuff are mainly mechanical that can be added later.

And here is a news for you.  For a new website no matter what you do for the search engines to find you and put you up in front - won't happen.  It will take some time.

His original post sounds as though H1s, H2 etc. are probobly going to be an integral part of his design so why wait - start with the basics now and get results quicker - nothing to lose and everything to gain.   If you haven't read the link I posted then read it - a lot of the content originated from Google...

It is integral as I have seperate pages for 150' products. I need the H1 H2 H3 to be perfect.

Weebly have put H1 in the logo which mean I can't manually put H1 in text.

Is there anyway around this?

I could be wrong, but I don't believe the logo is an H1 tag. In fact, there's at least one free app in the App Center for adding H1 tags to your page. 

Have you already tried adding your own H1 tag, and are you getting an error?

@Stuart-ty First, there is no SEO issue with using multiple h1 tags:

Second, if your logo is in fact wrapped in h1 tags and you don't particularly want this, you can replace the h1s with another wrapper like div or span via the page header html accessed in the Code Editor (Theme > Edit HTML/CSS...view the relevant page header html type to see the logo wrapper). The h1 tag around the logo only really makes sense if you aren't using a logo graphic. In that case, the "logo" defaults to the text-based site title which will render as specified by the h1 tag (which likely has a custom class or id with styling applied in the site's css). If you swap out the opening and closing h1s with opening/closing divs (but retaining the h1's custom class/id) this won't affect your logo graphic image.
