► About this video
In this video, Manuel discusses how to use subheadings effectively. There are several reasons why you should use subheadings:
1. Headings guide your readers through your text.
2. Headings make your text more accessible.
3. Headings might guide search engines through your text.
Your text should start with a main heading H1, and this heading can only be used once per article. Other headings can be used multiple times, as long as they follow a hierarchical structure. H2 is for subheadings of H1, H3 is for subheadings of that H2, et cetera. Watch the video and find out all about using headings!
