Heading structure refers to the logical hierarchy of headings (H1 through H6) used to organize content. Proper heading structure improves readability, accessibility, and helps search engines understand content relationships.

## Example

H1: Guide to SEO → H2: On-Page SEO → H3: Title Tags → H2: Off-Page SEO → H3: Link Building

## How to apply it

Follow a logical hierarchy (never skip levels), use H2s for main sections, H3s for subsections. Include keywords naturally but prioritize readability.

> **Pro tip:** Create a heading outline before writing content. It serves as your content roadmap and ensures logical flow.
