AI-generated summary

The discussion revolves around a missing unique H1 tag on the homepage. Faizan_Zahid mentions that a unique H1 tag is essential for crawlers to understand the page and suggests adding it to the homepage, tag pages, category pages, and user profile pages. They also recommend making meta descriptions unique for each page. marin-k-a agrees that the issue is crucial for SEO. However, Jagster argues that while a unique H1 tag is semantically important, its absence may not significantly impact SEO, as Google can make its own decisions and has adapted to SEO manipulation attempts.

I made this last time Remove duplicate H1 from topic & other pages to improve SEO rankings for topic pages

and the team did fix the duplicate H1 from topic pages, but now on homepage there is no H1 tag.

1 unique H1 tag is essential on all pages of a site for crawlers to understand the page.

Please add unique H1 on homepage, tag pages, category pages and user profile pages. and please make sure this unique H1 tag is not duplicated on topics pages. On topics pages, the behaviour is correct as there is already 1 unique H1 on homepage.

Similarly the meta description of each page should be unique as well. Right now, if i put the meta description in site settings, the same meta description is repeated on tag pages, author pages etc. This should be unique too.

Thanks

I’m also noticing that the issue with missing unique H1 tags is still present. It’s crucial for SEO. Are there any updates or plans to fix this? Thanks!

Actually it is not. Google makes its own mind, mostly because web admins and SEO consults started to try manipulation with those years and years ago.

But semantically it should be fixed.
