Page Title

Page Title

The Page Title component adds a top-level headline (text in <h1> tags) to a page (like the large “Page Title above). For accessibility and search engine optimization, or SEO, reasons, content authors should only use one H1 headline per web page. If a page already has one in another component, like a Hero Banner, adding a Page Title is not needed. The Page Title component uses the text from the page’s Title field.
