It is said that search engine crawlers would ignore heading titles (h1~h6) in <figcaption>
because html5 outline algorithm doesn't parse them.
So we should avoid using <figure>
or <figcaption>
. Is this true?
Update 1:
Google does index h1~h6 in figcaption
.
Update 2: To get the title more clear, it comes from an opinion:
- Googlebot uses html5 outline algorithm to parse content
- That algorithm ignores heading in figcaption
- So we should not use h1~h6 in figcaption
