Heading outline checker
Read your page as an outline. Inspect its primary heading, section hierarchy and empty headings before you polish the visual design.
What this tool inspects
The tool extracts H1–H6 headings in source order, counts primary headings and identifies jumps of more than one level. It shows up to 150 heading rows and gives an exportable outline for a writer or developer. This can reveal a shared template heading, a forgotten empty element or section levels chosen for visual size rather than structure.
How to read the result
A useful outline explains the page without requiring you to inspect every paragraph. Review whether section labels describe what follows and whether a heading level reflects its relationship to the preceding section. Multiple H1s are a review cue, not an automatic Google penalty. Empty headings deserve investigation because they can make the document structure less useful for readers and assistive technology.
Where a manual check still matters
The output comes from fetched HTML, not a rendered accessibility tree. Hidden headings may be included, and browser-inserted headings may be absent. The tool cannot certify accessibility or judge whether your copy fully answers a question. Review the rendered page and its real reading order before editing a shared component across the site.
Keep useful evidence
Successful checks save a snapshot to your browser workspace. Run the same tool on the same final URL again to compare check statuses with the prior saved result. Export CSV or JSON to keep a file, or print the result as a PDF. Browser data stays on this device and does not run automatic scans.

Common questions
Are multiple H1 headings automatically an SEO failure?
No. The tool treats them as a review prompt. Prioritize clear document structure and meaningful page headings rather than a universal ranking rule.
Is this a complete website audit?
This tool answers one focused question on a bounded public response. The launch audit combines 40 checks, with a free top-three preview and paid full reports.
Does this change my website?
No. These checks fetch public information and return evidence. You decide whether to change the site and verify the result after deployment.
