H2, or Heading 2, is a type of HTML tag used to define subheadings on a webpage. It is smaller in size than the H1 tag and is typically used to break down the content of the page into sections or subsections. H2 tags are important for both search engine optimization and user experience, as they provide structure and hierarchy to the content of the page. Search engines use H2 tags to understand the topics covered on the page and to determine its relevance to a user’s search query. Proper use of H2 tags can also make the content more scannable and easier to read for users.
