Heading tags (H1 through H6) do way more than chan Heading tags (H1 through H6) do way more than change font size.

They build the foundation of your content.

Think of them like stacking blocks - each level (H1, H2, H3…) adds clarity, depth, and organization. 

And that structure matters for everyone who interacts with your content:

– Search engines use them to understand and rank your page
– Screen readers use them to help users navigate without frustration
– Neurodivergent folks use them to scan and focus without overwhelm

Headings are a strategic tool for creating inclusive, ethical, and effective websites.

Whether you’re building your first blog or reworking an existing site, it’s time to use heading tags with intention.

Want the full breakdown of what each tag does, and how to use them right?

Read the blog: MegBrunson.com/heading-tags

Let me know what questions you have about headings!

Every June, my feed floods with rainbow logos and Every June, my feed floods with rainbow logos and brands saying, “Love is love!” Come July? The rainbows vanish.

I know it’s not always intentional... but it does feel performative.

A lot of entrepreneurs want to show up for causes and communities they care about, but don’t always know how to do it thoughtfully.

I’ve seen folks:
~ Acknowledge a cultural or religious holiday with a confusing caption
~ Announce a sale (or event) on a sacred or solemn day
~ Copy what everyone else is doing, hoping it lands

Most of the time, it’s not coming from a bad place.
It’s overwhelm. It’s lack of context. It’s not having the right info at your fingertips.

But I know that’s not your vibe.
You want to be intentional. Inclusive. Thoughtful.
Even if you’re tired. Or busy. Or struggling to be consistent.

That’s exactly why I created the Inclusive Holiday Content Bundle: CelebrateOnSocial.com

If you’re looking for an easy way to plan inclusive, values-aligned content in 2026 (and finish 2025 strong)… check out the Inclusive Holiday Content Bundle:

~ 470+ holidays from a wide range of cultures, communities, and causes.
~ Canva templates and Alt Text for each holiday.
~ Holiday descriptions, marketing tips, content ideas, and red flags to watch out for.

It’s a one-time investment of $40, and you’ll get immediate access to the 2026 Content.

Plus, the 2025 holiday content is still available to finish the year strong.

And you'll get lifetime access!

"How to Use Heading Tags" isn't just a web dev les "How to Use Heading Tags" isn't just a web dev lesson; it's a visibility and accessibility game-changer.

When I built my first website, I thought heading tags (H1, H2, H3…) were just style choices. A shortcut to make things bold, big, and pretty with different fonts.

But spoiler alert: they’re not. 

Heading tags are structure tools, not just formatting tools.
They’re how your content tells a story - to your readers, to search engines like Google, and to assistive tech like screen readers.

Imagine visiting a site with no titles, no subheadings, just… walls of text.
No thanks, right?

When used correctly, heading tags:

– Boost your SEO by showing Google what your page is really about
– Improve accessibility for screen reader users
– Help neurodivergent folks skim and stay focused
– And make your content more clear, readable, and actually enjoyable

If you’ve ever felt unsure about which tag to use (or why you should care), this blog post is for you.
I’m breaking it all down - no coding experience required.

SEO can feel like a black hole of techy jargon, co SEO can feel like a black hole of techy jargon, conflicting advice, and “must-do” checklists that just leave you overwhelmed.

But here’s what I want you to know (and what this entire blog post is all about):

Keywords aren’t about chasing clicks.
They’re about creating clarity.

– Clarity for search engines.
– Clarity for your ideal clients.
– Clarity for you, so you’re not reinventing the wheel every time you sit down to write.

When you choose the right keyword and place it intentionally, you’re not just “doing SEO.”

You’re building a marketing strategy that supports:
Your energy
Your values
Your business goals
And the humans you’re here to help

And no, it doesn’t need to be perfect. 
It just needs to be intentional.

If you’ve been following this series (or if this is your first post in the mix), the blog is your go-to guide to:
– Choosing a keyword without overthinking
– Placing it where it matters
– Avoiding common traps (like keyword cannibalization + stuffing)
– Building long-term visibility that works while you rest

Been trying to “do SEO right” but still not se Been trying to “do SEO right” but still not seeing results?

Here are 5 common SEO mistakes (and how to avoid them without getting overwhelmed):

Mistake 1: Keyword Stuffing

You cram your keyword everywhere because someone told you to. But now your post sounds like a robot wrote it. (Google and humans both hate that.) Instead, use your keyword naturally and strategically - especially in places like the title, first paragraph, and subheadings.

Mistake 2: Ignoring User Intent

You choose keywords based on search volume instead of what people actually want to find. Ask: Does my content answer the question behind this search?

Mistake 3: Going After High-Competition Keywords

Trying to rank for “marketing” with a brand-new site = burnout. Fast. Start with long-tail keywords like “ethical marketing tips for ADHD entrepreneurs.” Less competition, better results.

Mistake 4: Using the Same Primary Keyword on Multiple Pages

(Keyword cannibalization alert!) Your pages start competing with each other instead of helping. Give each page a unique keyword focus, even if they’re all part of a bigger content theme.

Mistake 5: Not Optimizing Older Content

You hit publish, and then never look back. But your old content might be - one tweak away - from ranking. Schedule regular SEO check-ins to refresh, reoptimize, and keep your content working for you.

Reminder: You’re not behind.
You’re learning, refining, and building something sustainable - and that’s powerful.

I walk you through each of these mistakes (with examples and fixes) inside the full blog post.

Head to MegBrunson.com/keywords to get the scoop.

Feel like you’re late to the SEO party? Like eve Feel like you’re late to the SEO party?
Like everyone else is already showing up in Google, and you’re still trying to figure out how they did it?

Here’s the truth:

The best time to start optimizing for SEO was 12 months ago.
The second-best time?
Right now.

I know it’s tempting to chase only the fast wins - those social posts, DMs, and reels that get quick dopamine hits. (And hey, those can work!)

But if you want your content to keep working even when you take a break, get sick, take a vacation, or just can’t show up consistently - you need a long-term visibility strategy.

That’s where SEO shines.

It's values-aligned, sustainable, and ideal for neurodivergent brains that thrive with systems (not constant output).

And it all starts with one step: learning how to choose and use keywords that actually work for you.

I put together a friendly and comprehensive guide to help you start:

You picked the perfect keyword… now what? You d You picked the perfect keyword… now what?

You don’t need to stuff your keyword into every sentence like it’s a secret password.
(Please don’t. Search engines - and actual humans - hate that.)

Instead, drop your keyword into strategic places where it makes the most impact:

Here’s your non-robotic, non-stressful placement checklist:

– Page or Post Title (H1)
– URL Slug
– Meta Description
– First 100 Words
– Subheadings (H2/H3)
– Image File Names
– Image Alt Text (accessibility first, SEO second!)
– Internal Link Anchor Text

Tip: You don’t need to hit every single one - especially not perfectly.

This is about being intentional, not obsessive. 

There’s room to breathe.

And if you're using WordPress, I highly recommend the free Yoast SEO plugin. It gives you an easy, color-coded checklist and helps you optimize without overdoing it.

Think of this as a way to make your content more searchable and more supportive - because the people Googling your topic need what you’re creating.

You’re creating blog posts. Writing service page You’re creating blog posts.
Writing service pages. 
Pouring your heart into that website copy. 

But somehow…
– Your traffic isn’t growing.
– Your rankings are meh.
– And you're wondering, “What gives?!”

Here’s a sneaky SEO mistake you might be making (without even realizing it):
Keyword Cannibalization.

Sounds dramatic, right?

It basically means:
You’re using the same primary keyword on multiple pages or posts - so instead of boosting each other, your content is fighting for attention in search results. (yikes)

But here’s the good news:
It is 100% fixable.

All you need to do is give each page or post its own keyword focus - like assigning roles on a team. That way, each piece supports your SEO strategy without stepping on another’s toes.

Example:
If your services page targets “content repurposing,”
Then your blog post might focus on “repurposing blog posts for Instagram”
…and another post might cover “content batching and repurposing”

See the difference? Same topic, different angles.
– More visibility.
– Better internal linking.
– SEO wins without sabotage.

I break it all down inside this blog post… plus walk you through how to avoid other common SEO pitfalls like keyword stuffing and chasing competitive keywords that aren’t realistic (yet!).

November is here, and with it comes a season of re November is here, and with it comes a season of reflection, gratitude, and connection. 

As the year winds down, this month invites us to honor traditions, build bridges, and find ways to give back. 

Whether it’s through cultural celebrations or acts of kindness, November is a reminder of the beauty in community.

Here’s a look at some of the meaningful holidays and observances that define this month:

Native American Heritage Month (All November) - This month is a time to celebrate the rich histories, cultures, and contributions of Native American communities while recognizing the resilience and strength that continue to define them. Let’s amplify Indigenous voices, learn from their stories, and commit to supporting their movements for justice.

Transgender Day of Remembrance (November 20) - This solemn observance honors the lives of transgender people lost to violence and prejudice. It’s a call to action to protect and uplift trans voices, ensuring that every member of our community is seen, valued, and safe.

Thanksgiving (November 27) - Yes, Thanksgiving is about gathering, feasting, and expressing gratitude - but it’s also a chance to reflect on its history and recognize the complexities of this holiday for Indigenous communities. Pair your gratitude with education and action to make this day truly meaningful.

November is the perfect time to lean into gratitude, reflection, and connection. Share meaningful content that honors Native American Heritage Month, create campaigns around giving back, or encourage your audience to embrace gratitude in their own lives.

My Diverse and Inclusive Holidays guide is your go-to resource for creating marketing that matters. Packed with observances and ideas, it’ll help you craft content that connects authentically while celebrating the diversity of your audience.

Download it here: CelebrateOnSocial.com 

November reminds us that gratitude isn’t just a feeling - it’s a practice. 

Which holiday or observance will you be honoring this month? 
I’d love to hear how you’re making November meaningful.
Did you know that LGBTQIA+ children are 4x more li Did you know that LGBTQIA+ children are 4x more likely to commit suicide than their peers?

Yes, this is the alarming and terrible reality we live in.

A reality where OUR children suffer:

- For something they have NO control over
- For being who they are
- For NOT conforming to mainstream societal standards

And it needs to stop.

Because we fail as humans when we value someone's identity over their BEING!

So…what can we ACTUALLY do to support our children?

Well, for starters, you can learn to respect their pronouns.

Research shows that transgender and nonbinary youth who reported having pronouns respected by all or most people in their lives attempted suicide at HALF THE RATE of those who did not have their pronouns respected.

Something so simple can have such an enormous impact.

And I would also like to share my personal experience here.

When my kid was just 10, they told me they were nonbinary and that they wanted to change their name.

Now, years later, they have explored a variety of names. They have changed their gender identity multiple times. And I'm pretty sure we've used every pronoun to refer to them at one point or another.

Still, I fully expect that the kiddo I know today is not the final version of themself.

And that's okay!

All they need to know is I stand with them, no matter what name they use, what their pronouns are, etc.

And this is what EVERY kid needs... The more SUPPORT a kid has, the less likely they are to take their lives. End of discussion. Hard stop.

P.S. If you want to go the extra mile, you can advocate for more gender inclusivity and representation in everything, from school to sports, fashion to medical care to media. You can also show your support for inclusive brands! Start small and keep learning and expanding!

ID: Screenshot of a tweet by Chase Strangio @ChaseStrangio: ‘I would rather my kid change their sense of their gender 200 times before puberty than die before they could live. Your anxiety over young kids claiming a truth of who they are is about you, not them, not medicine, not some grave threat. Deal with your shit and let others live.’
