H1: Page Title (exactly 1)
+-- H2: Main Section
| +-- H3: Subsection
| +-- H3: Subsection
+-- H2: Main Section
| +-- H3: Subsection
+-- H2: Conclusion
```
**Common Errors:**
- Multiple H1 tags
- Skipping levels (H1 -> H3)
- Using headings for styling only
- No keyword in H1

**Flesch Reading Ease Target: 60-70**
| Score | Level | Audience |

| 50-59 | Fairly Difficult | 10th-12th grade |
| 30-49 | Difficult | College |
| 0-29 | Very Difficult | College graduate |
**Improvement Techniques:**
