any studies have been conducted that show that most people scan Web pages rather than read

them closely. Thus, headings are important to let your user know what topics are on the page

that they might want to stop and read. The headings on your Web page serve the same purpose as

headings in printed materials. For example, this book contains a main heading above this paragraph

that allows you as a reader to quickly determine that these pages cover the topic of adding headings

to your page. Just as that heading helps you find information in this book, headings on your Web

page help your user.
