Jun 27, 2012 at 12:19 comment added rlemon To satisfy both of you; the question is first and foremost about semantic html and using the new html5 tags properly. This does however entail optimizing them for SEO (where it still conforms with the semantic parts).
Jun 26, 2012 at 17:40 comment added zzzzBov @FlorianMargaine, your right, life is real, and this is a blog format. SEO lost/gained from use of h1 elements is negligible in comparison to the gains from people sharing links to the page. More important to emphasize the quality of the content over the structure of the markup.
Jun 26, 2012 at 17:37 comment added Florian Margaine @zzzzBov still, it is real life :-)
Jun 26, 2012 at 17:37 comment added zzzzBov @FlorianMargaine, the question was about semantic HTML, and not optimizing for search engines. Besides, google's (not worth pretending that anyone uses a different search engine) algorithms follow common web practices, and are adapting to support HTML5.
Jun 26, 2012 at 17:05 comment added Florian Margaine @zzzzBov even though semantic html is nice, we also can't forget about SEO. That's why using H1 elements everywhere is often not an option (or rather, not the best option).
Jun 26, 2012 at 17:02 comment added zzzzBov Primary headers in the page, <article>s, and <sections> should use <h1> elements. If the region has a secondary header <h2> should be used.
