Hi Christian, Google also use table layout for their pages, inline styles, don't use labels with input fields and so on. The fact that they use H1 around the logo just shows that they don't require SEO work. ;-) So your mention of Google using H1 around the logo does not illustrate anything.

This is an argument which never seems to go away. Unfortunately the HTML 4 spec http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/global.html#h-7.5.5 confuses things a little by referring to the relative importance of different heading levels, rather than their structural function. Nevertheless, it also

If semantics and SEO are paramount, and typography is too, could you make an H2 which is the same size etc for the 'other' uses of H1? That way, your structure/appearance would be intact, and the SEO considerations satisfied?? Is that undesirable for any reason? Bob - Original Message

Jason, Thats clearly not the case, if you read the WIA guidlines then is advocates the use of multiple H1's, from an semantic point of view they make sense and in terms of SEO the make sense because every site we've built uses mutiple H1's and they enjoy page 1 results on Google. The video
