# How to use Headings to Optimize Your WordPress

The best SEO practice is to use the **<h1> tag** only for the titles of your posts.

You should use a few **<h2> tags** and as many **<h3> tags** as you need for the other headings in your posts. Doing this will allow the search engines to index the important information from your website better. A good document has headings and subheadings, because headings make it easier to determine the subject of the page. 

For blog websites, the best SEO practice is to set the title of your post in a Heading 1 tag ( **H1 Tag** ) .
