I used the Bing webmaster tool's SEO analyzer on my website, and it reported There are multiple <H1> tags on the page
. It recommends that there should only be one <h1>
tag on the page.
The page is a listing of blog posts for a category. So each blog entry is structured like this.
<article>
<head><h1><a>...</a></h1></head>
<p>summary...</p>
</article>
<article>
<head><h1><a>...</a></h1></head>
<p>summary...</p>
</article>
<article>
<head><h1><a>...</a></h1></head>
<p>summary...</p>
</article>
<article>
<head><h1><a>...</a></h1></head>
<p>summary...</p>
</article>
How is this invalid? I thought this was the correct way to describe a post in HTML5.
