How can I change my website's title from H2 to H1 on the Grid theme?

Store Design

Topic summary

Main issue: Ensuring the homepage has a proper H1 heading in Shopify’s Grid theme for SEO.

What happened:

  • An SEO audit reported no H1 on the homepage. The merchant added a Rich text section for the title but saw it was rendering as H2.
  • Advice given: In the Rich text settings, change the selected text’s heading level to H1, and ensure there is only one H1 on the page to avoid SEO warnings. A screenshot was shared showing where to set the heading level.
  • Theme guidance: The Grid theme maker said removing the logo makes the site title display by default as the H1 in the header.

Current status:

  • After removing the logo, the site title appears as H1 but displays with each word on a new line. The merchant wants it on a single line and asks if this should be fixed in the header section (likely via CSS).

Open items:

  • How to adjust the Grid theme’s header styling so the H1 title displays on one line. No final solution yet.

Hi,
When you using richtext setting you can choose heading. Select your title and change in heading to h1, but make sure that this title is the only h1 on page in other way SEO will throw error that h1 tag is present in more than one example on page
