Non-Sequential Headings

Opportunity heading.skip_level

What it means

The heading outline skips a level (an h1 followed directly by an h3). Screen readers and search engines use heading levels to understand structure.

How to fix it

Make each heading one level below its parent section. Style the size with CSS, not by choosing a smaller heading tag.
