The H1 tag is the highest-level heading in HTML and should represent the main topic of your page. It helps search engines understand page content hierarchy and is crucial for accessibility.

## Example

<h1>Complete Guide to Running Shoes: How to Choose the Right Pair</h1>

## How to apply it

Use exactly one H1 per page, include your primary keyword, make it descriptive and different from your title tag, place it near the top of your content.

> **Pro tip:** Your H1 should answer: 'What is this page about?' in a way that matches user search intent.
