Heading structure checker: is your outline sound?
Paste your draft and get an instant heading and outline score with the top structural fixes — no account needed.
A sound heading outline helps readers scan, helps search engines understand your page, and helps AI systems parse your content into clean sections. This free checker scores your draft's H1 usage, heading-level order, paragraph length, and list structure, then shows the highest-impact fixes to make.
What we check
- Single, clear H1 — one top-level heading per page
- Heading level order — no skipped levels (H2 straight to H4, etc.)
- Section balance — are sections reasonably sized, not one giant block?
- Paragraph length — is any section a wall of text?
- List usage — are steps and options broken into scannable lists?

A broken outline confuses readers and machines alike
Duplicate H1s, skipped heading levels, and unbroken walls of text make a page harder to scan and harder for any system — search engine, browser reader mode, or AI summarizer — to parse into a clean structure. Fixing the outline before you publish is a five-minute pass that pays off every time the page is read or parsed.
