Use H2 for main questions : For primary questions that directly address the topic, use H2 tags. This signals to both users and search engines that these are important points within your content.
Use H3 for subquestions : When there are related subquestions or follow-up points, use H3 tags. This maintains a clear hierarchy and helps organize supplementary information under the main question.
Consistency is key : Make sure you use header tags consistently throughout your content to maintain a clear structure. This not only helps with SEO but also improves the overall flow and coherence of your content.
