Missing H1 Heading Tag for Blog Posts
The default Blogger theme does include schema, but it lists the organization as “Blogger.” While schema is important for SEO, having “Blogger” instead of your own brand name can reduce your blog’s branding potential.
Using a custom theme allows you to implement proper schema, improving search visibility and reinforcing your unique brand identity.
The default Blogger themes only partially use these tags. While you could manually edit the template to include them, it requires technical skills. Using a pre-designed custom theme with full HTML5 support is a more efficient solution.
