Hi
I saw that all the titles in the blocks are H3 and in my home page I have only one H1 but no H2 (see http://www.greenplanner.it)
isn’t that bad for seo?
thanks

Nope. You should only have *one* h1 tag on your home page, which would normally be something for SEO that is static like a block of info about your publication. H3 is most often used for headlines on news pages as they are not sticky, meaning if you have 20 items on home page, then 20 new items post, then the other 20 drop off home page and are no longer there, so have zero “long tail” value for SEO for exact phrase matching.
h1 and h2 tags most commonly used for static content in relation to the actual article/news item or page, not the other content linking to it. So, h1 for a title, h2 for a sub-head; h3 for supplemental headlines which are more indicative of a section head, than simple bolded text items.
Welcome to SEO 🙂
Google does not necessarily provide more “juice” to something with h2 or h3 tag on your home page. Almost everytihng other than h1 is pretty much presentational.
So you can use h3 tags on your mid-story sub-titles on an article while h2 might be used for main story sub-title. H1 for main title.
Only you can optimize your site for SEO; theme can’t do it for you. So, yes, adding h1 and h2 tags to your home page with static information is useful. Not so much with transitory items. You can of course make any heads for sections as h2 using blocks in the composer (e.g., “Book Reviews” as h2 sub head above a block of book review items…). Totally up to you.
