Read from the page as clickd receives it, before any script runs. A heading drawn by script after the page loads is not here, and a crawler that does not run scripts does not see it either.

That was one page of allbirds.com.clickd reads its first 100 pages against one rulebook and ranks every fix by what it is worth. Free, about a minute.

Questions

Can a page have more than one h1?

HTML allows it, but one h1 that names the page is clearest for readers, search engines and assistants.

Does skipping a heading level matter?

It breaks the outline that screen readers and crawlers use. Go from h2 to h3, not from h2 to h4.

Should headings be questions?

Where a section answers a question people ask, yes. Assistants can match the question to the answer under it.
