    Hi there —

    I’m getting duplicate h1 tags on every page of my site, one for the site title and one for the entry title. I’ve been searching for an answer to this but I need something fairly simple if possible. Is there any code I can add to the custom CSS to fix this?

    I appreciate your help. My url is http://www.findthebestjuicers.com

    Thank you!

    @spiritexpressing: That is how the HTML5 is coded. You can have h1 in each section. So, why do you have to change that. Also that cannot be changes thorough CSS. It’s the HTML Code.

    Thanks Sakin. The reason I wanted to change it is that I got a warning from Bing that I had multiple <h1> tags. Some articles I’ve read say that it negatively affects SEO, but hopefully that’s not true with HTML5.

    @spiritexpressing: Multiple H1 is allowed in HTML5 and we have carefully designed H1 tags with special attention on header tag and headings.

    You can also check this Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIn5qJKU8VM by Google software engineer Matt Cutts, who clearly states that you can use multiple H1 but don’t over do it. Also use h1 specific to heading and header tags.

    Thanks for clarifying this, Sakin. I know there’s a lot of confusion about this out there. Much appreciation!
