FREE HEADING TAG CHECKER

Review a page’s heading order and hierarchy

WebTrendSEO’s Heading Tag Checker extracts H1 to H6 headings from a public page and presents them in document order.

Enter one page URL to review missing H1s, empty headings, duplicate text, hierarchy skips, and heading length. Use the outline to compare the structure with what the page is meant to explain.

Review each flag in context. The checker does not change your headings, and a warning should lead to an editorial or technical check rather than an automatic rewrite.

WHY USE THIS TOOL

Find headings that need an editorial review

Headings help readers navigate a page and understand how its sections relate. A document-order outline makes unexpected gaps and repeated text easier to spot.

Use meaningful headings and a hierarchy that reflects the content. Confirm template-generated headings and page-specific headings together so the final outline is useful.
