Headings help readers scan a page and help editors see whether the draft follows its promised job. A short outline review catches structural weakness without turning the process into keyword decoration.
Test the outline without paragraphs
Read the title and headings alone. They should describe a coherent progression from problem to action. Rename vague headings such as “Overview” when a more specific label would help readers choose where to focus.
Keep levels meaningful
Use one page title, second-level headings for major sections, and third-level headings only for true subsections. Do not select a level for visual size. The rendered component can handle appearance while the document preserves structure.
Remove repeated intent
When two headings promise the same answer, combine the sections or sharpen their scopes. Each section should contribute a distinct decision, method, example, limitation, or next step.
Verify rendered anchors
After build, test table-of-contents links and heading identifiers. Duplicate labels can create confusing anchors, so make labels unique and confirm that each link lands at the intended section.
BusinessGrowthAssistant’s mission is to build proper daily routines for articles and SEO improvements. Add this check to the daily SEO publishing routine, and use the daily SEO research brief when the decision needs a deeper evidence record.
Frequently asked questions
Should this check be completed for every article?
Yes. Keep the routine short and consistent, then expand the review only when the evidence reveals an exception.
Who can approve an exception?
The operator records the evidence and recommends an action. The accountable editor or site owner approves changes to public claims, strategy, or release requirements.
What should the record contain?
Keep the article route, observation, decision, owner, validation result, and next action. The record should let another operator reproduce the check.
