SEO Headers <H1>

Hello,

How come on my home page which has the HomePage topic with headers (ie: <h1>) the header tags (ie: <h1>) do not show  in F12 and web analyse programs say no header tags exist.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Dave

Hello Dave,

if a specific html element is missing in the markup when you inspect a fully loaded page via F12 in your browser, etc, then the element is not rendered in the html. Check your source code and try to find out why this is happening. If you are adding your titles/headers via html content editor, then it is possible the editor to be the culprit. Try various scenarios with different html elements and see if there will be any change.

Thanks for the insight and I've tried a few things but still haven't gotten anywhere.

For example, I have an <h1> in my HomePage topic and it is formatted correctly, and shows up F12.

Any ideas?  It's killing my SEO.

I looked at your website and I need some more information about the issue.

You have mentioned above - I have an <h1> in my HomePage topic and it is formatted correctly, and shows up F12.

I visited this link (since your site is not public): http://www.troyonlinesales.com/login?ReturnUrl=%2f

When I inspected "About login / registration", I am seeing this in the HTML:

<h2 class="topic-html-content-header">
                    About login / registration</h2>

Hello,

Perhaps have a look at this subdomain as there's more to it (but the same issue).  When I run website anaylsers such as MOZ, et al they give me an error on not having the <h1> tag set on the main and on product pages.

Hi QEDDave

Looking at your homepage, it looks like you have added a H1:

<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Troy Online Sales sells replacement parts for:&nbsp;</strong></h1>

On your product page, I am not seeing any title.

Just for testing, if you see demo site product page: http://demo.nopcommerce.com/htc-one-m8-android-l-50-lollipop

If you inspect on product title, you will see H1:

<h1 itemprop="name">
HTC One M8 Android L 5.0 Lollipop
 </h1>

Thanks for this update and I'll closer at the demo to see what is different between the demo products and those we have entered.   The main page <h1> comes from the Admin>Config>General>SEO.

Thanks for the help!

Oh and as an FYI, to get Google to read my subdomain site map I had to edit the webconfig as follows:

LINE 86 (in mine)

      <!--<add name="SitemapXml" path="sitemap.xml" verb="*" type="System.Web.Routing.UrlRoutingModule" resourceType="Unspecified" preCondition="integratedMode" />-->
