    Thanks. If you check my link you will see that the heading is already there. The only difference is that it is <h1> and not one of the sub heading.

    It doesn’t make sense to me. My page has got right to the point and used the focus keyword in a heading tag. Why repeat it again with a <h2> tag. Shouldn’t this be enough?

    Update: I tweaked it to have a h2 heading. Now I get another warning:

    The focus keyword appears in 1 (out of 5) subheadings in your copy.

    Why repeat it all the time? I guess I could prefix the other 4 headings:

    “Meeting Schedule Assistant: xxx”

    But it seems unrequired to me. Please advise.

    You shouldn’t overoptimize and try to chase the green bullets of the content/keyword analysis and sacrifice the content quality.

    If it doesn’t make sense to place the focus keyword in some of your subheadings, then it’s totally fine and you can leave it be.
