Generate PRO SEO unfriendly

[Marcel]

Hey Guys,
i have bought the themes generate pro and lifestyle pro.
The Lifestsyle Pro is fine but The Generate pro theme declare the WordPress Site Headline and the wordpress site discription as H1 or H2.
So on each page is the same H1 and H2. Thats horrible. How can i Change it?
Thanks
Marcel

Hi Marcel,

This is also true of other StudioPress themes.

I think you may be basing "horrible" on outdated SEO considerations. This also misses the fact that the pages in Generate Pro have multiple H1 tags and that this is actually proper HTML5 design. See this article, for example, that explains how multiple H1 (and H2 ... ) tags per page are as semantic HTML5 is designed. Google Webmaster recommendations have supported (since 2009) use of multiple H1 tags per page where it supports the structure of the page content.

If, in the end, you do not wish to have multiple H1 tags per page, go to Genesis > SEO Settings and uncheck the setting for "Use semantic HTML5 page and section headings throughout site?" On the SEO settings page, StudioPress notes "HTML5 allows for multiple h1 tags throughout the document source, provided they are the primary title for the section in which they appear. However, following this standard may have a marginal negative impact on SEO." I think that from Matt Cutts as cited above the "marginal negative impact" may actually be close to zero.
