Hi, it seems interesting. I only have a question: when I use "View Selection Source" on your website I see your post title is h3 tag (class), not h1. Is there a reason for you not to have post title h1?
I just want to be sure nothing new happen after you wrote this post (I don`t want to be penalized by Google).
Also, can you tell me how can I make my blog title to appear? < h1 class='title'>
The same thing with descriptionwrapper.
Thanks

I just added this code to my blog. Then what happen our blog main Title? It should be H1 tag or not?
Thanks A Lot
I applied the code above but when I check my H1 tag with aboutus.org, it appears that my heading tag is “Subscribe via RSS Subscribe via Email Follow Me on Twitter Add me on Facebook”.
How to solve it please?
thanks for this tip, hope this works foe http://www.trueinternetworld.com
I am having trouble finding the first section of code even after I replace h3 with h2 and I have not forgotten to expand widget templates option. Traffic Travis, in the page analysis section, is telling me that I am getting a B+ which i think will become an A if I can just get the H1 tags as my keyword!
Love your SEO site btw! Some great info!

I get the below error message:
Error parsing XML, line 1635, column 9: The element type "h1" must be terminated by the matching end-tag "".
I am using the Awesom template.

Hi Rob!
You probably just need to change the closing tags to to fix that. I got an error or two setting up http://cormacscanlan.blogspot.com/ like this, but it seems to be good now.
Anyway, thanks for posting, this was useful!
Cormac
Sorry Rob, it seems the comments module here was a bit too clever with that and took out my HTML mark-up. The slightly odd sentence above was meant to say:
"You probably just need to change the closing tags (/h3) to (/h1) to fix that."
(replace the circular brackets with triangular ones)
Thanks, it works!
thanks bro.
