| Feb 15, 2018 at 18:59 | comment | added | Julix | embracing redundancy seems like it's still the right answer now (4 years after it was asked) - but hopefully it won't be forever. -- eventually SEO bots will tell whether the hidden h1 is the same as the text in the logo and thus redundant and only included for screen reader's benefit and not punish, I guess.... Google claims they care most about the end user. | |
