Non-sequential
What This Means
Pages with an <h2> that is not the second heading level after the <h1> on the page. Heading elements should be in a logical sequentially-descending order. The purpose of heading elements is to convey the structure of the page and they should be in logical order from <h1> to <h6>, which helps navigating the page and users that rely on assistive technologies.
What Triggers This Issue
This issue is triggered when a page’s <h2> is not the second heading level following the <h1> on the page. For example:
<h1>About Us</h1> <h3>Our Team</h3> <h2>Our Benefits</h2>How To Fix
Ensure the <h2> is the second heading on the page. Headings should be in a logical sequential order from <h1> to <h6>. Review and update page heading levels so they are descending in order, for example
the heading element following an <h1> should be an <h2>, rather than an <h3>.Last updated on
