SEO friendly H1 tag with 2 text lines
-
Hi everyone,
I am trying to add span tags in H1, break tag on 2 lines and style each line of H1 differently:
Example:
Line 1Line 2
I might add a smaller font for line 2 as well... Is this SEO friendly?
Will crawlers read entire text or can interfere and block it.
Thank you!
-
Excellent! Thank you All!

Looking at your code example, you will have a single H1 on your page. That is fine and recommended.
The rest of what you are doing is styling. Search engines will not care about that as long as you are not playing games like white text on a white background, etc.

I agree with most of what Roman said 2 h1 will not be the end of the world.
still I thin it is something I would avoid I would use the h1 as the on page introduction and then use as many h2’s
as needed Google still looks at the h1 tag
google dose try to look at your site design it crawls css & JS like in fetch as a Google Bot
Hope that helps,
Tom

The Crawler looks for content not for design technically you are talking about how to style your H1. That is a CSS topic you don't have to worry about that as long your tag and your content is relevant.

Will I loose from SEO if I rename my urls to be more keyword friendly?
As a good practice of SEO is to have your keywords in the links. I am thinking of doing some optimization and change my urls to more effective keywords. I am using shopify and there is an option (a tick) that you can check while changing the url (ex. for a category, for a product, for a blog post). This will give a redirection to the old post to the new. Is it good practice? Is it risky for losing SEO or it will help to rank higher because I will have better keywords in my links?

Changing Servers + Effect on SEO
Hi, I am currently with a very slow server. Our website takes quite a while to load, FTP is very slow and content changes with Wordpress are slow because even the database connection takes a lot of time. However, my website ranks very well. Traffic has doubled in the last year. Our domain has been registered with this company for over 10 years. I am wondering if changing to a different hosting provider would have an effect on my rankings due to the change in IP.
