: Changing headers for small screens - SEO implications I'm changing some of my pages to better display in different devices (tables, smart phones etc). I want to figure out a good way of handling

@Annie201

I'm assuming you only have one domain with no option for sub-domains. So here's what I suggest:

I'd go with number 3 and not make elaborate headings. Also, you should configure the view port using the meta tag to make the mobile screen adjust to the site. If the heading is too large, then the text will wrap, but no side-scrolling will happen which is acceptable for responsive design. Here's the tag I'm talking about:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">


If that isn't acceptable, then you could consider changing the font size based on screen size (via media queries in css), or you could use a ridiculously short version of your title in the H1 tag and an extended version in an H2 tag. For example, do this:

<h1>Beach</h1><h2>The perfect family getaway</h2>


instead of this:

<h1>Beach, the perfect family getaway</h1>
