It will generate Curiosity in the user’s mind about the rest of the article.
- Keep the length of the Introduction between 100-400 words -> its Introduction! Bitch! Not the whole article, you can either write the 100-word introduction for 1000 word article and if your content is long, You can go with the longer introduction.

I’ve seen many bloggers using Any Heading tag from H1-H6 anywhere in the article and complaining about their Performance in the search engine.
We all know that There are six types of heading tags H1-H6, and we all use them to indicate headings in the article.
You never have to use the H1 tag in the content body Practically, Because already your title will be shown in H1 tag.
For Sub-headings, you have to use the H2 tag, and if you want to add more sub-headings under the Sub-headings, you can use the H3 tags.
Long story short, you have to follow the hierarchy. There should be H2 headings under H1, H3 under H2, H4 under H3 and so on.
Finally, This is how you can use the heading tags to make your article structured and easy to understand for Users and also easy to understand for Google.
