H1 or H2 Effect on SEO Ranking Factors?

As I know Search engines (SE) pay special attention to page text that's highlighted or given special format.

Use keywords in headings. Headings are text highlighted with the «H» (HTML)hypertext mark-up language tags. The «h1» and «h2» tags are simplest. Currently, the utilization of CSS permits you to redefine the looks of text highlighted with these tags. this implies that «H» tags are used less than these days, however are still vital in SEO work.

Highlight keywords with bold fonts. don't highlight the whole text! simply highlight every keyword two or three times on the page. Use the «strong» tag for highlight rather than the a lot of traditional «B» bold tag.

If you have any more suggestion let me know

Header tags definitely help with rankings in Google, Yahoo! and Bing. Some people are using them incorrectly though, and it's always a sad day when a persons rankings get hit

And you are correct when you say to just highlight a few of your keywords using the strong tag in order for them to stand out. So many times I've seen someone just bold an entire sentence or even bold every single keyword in their post or page that they are trying to rank for. Google, Yahoo! and Bing will understand what your page is about, you don't have to bold or italicize everything lol

Back to header tags though. Some people use them for just a keyword which is sometimes bad since it doesn't describe what the following text is about to go over. Sure, get a keyword in the header tag but make sure it explains something. Think of the header tag as something that should go around a title and then follow it up with a good description which also has your keywords in it. This way you'll be giving a decent one two punch to Google and basically saying "Yo, I did this right now rank me up!" lol

Also, it's not an overnight type of thing. Optimizing your pages correctly will just put you on an even playing field with your tough competition. Be sure to do everything right in order to rank up properly and make Google, Yahoo! and Bing send you that targeted traffic you deserve

Yeah, I had my H1 tags optimized incorrectly by having it in the logo and either one or less on the page aside from that (read my comment here for more).

How long does it take to see ranking increase when you fix this? I was previously ranking well with it being broken.
