Empty H3 tag at the beginning of pages

    Hello, I recently had an SEO audit done on my website and they pointed out that all the pages on the website begin with an empty H3 tag. Apparently this is not appropriate since pages should begin with an H1 tag in order for best SEO ranking.

    I had a look for this H3 tag in the page source and it appears to be in the site branding, which I guess makes it a part of the Crio theme:<h3 class="site-description alt-font color2-color site-description invisible" aria-hidden="true"></h3>

    I have the site description hidden for all pages of this website, so is there any way to get rid of this H3 tag completely?

    Thank you!

    Hello @tmerkel1,

    ​Thank you for reaching out to our support team.

    The H3 you are talking about is the tagline in WordPress I wanted to mention that as this could cause another SEO issue later. If you ever need to set that you would need to go to Design -> Header -> Tagline or search for Tagline in the search option in the top of the customizer.

    That being said if you want to just remove that H3 completely you can remove the tagline code in Crio with the below function. Note: this will remove all taglines on your site. 

    add_action( 'init', function() {

        remove_all_actions( 'boldgrid_print_tagline' );

    } );

    To add the code to your site you can use a plugin called snippet or search for snippet in the WordPress add new plugin.

    Let me know if this works for you or if you need anything further we are always happy to assist.
    Elana.
