What's the issue
FastaSEO found more than one element on this page set to H1. Every page should have exactly one H1 — the main title that tells Google and AI bots what the page is about. Multiple H1s send mixed signals about the page topic.
Why it matters
- Your H1 acts like a main topic label for the page — it tells Google and AI bots exactly what the page is about. When there are multiple H1s, search engines get conflicting signals about the main topic and may struggle to decide what to rank the page for. Showit often assigns heading tags automatically based on the text style you choose, so multiple H1s can happen without you noticing. A clean heading structure with one H1 is one of the easiest SEO wins you can make.
What good looks like
One H1 at the top of the page — your main descriptive title. Everything else should be H2 for main sections, H3 for subsections, and P for body text. For example: H1 = "Brand Photographer in Melbourne", H2 = "What to Expect", H3 = "The shoot day".
How long this takes
Most pages take under three minutes to fix.
