How to Add your main keyword in the H2 title of your page on Webflow?
Including your main keyword in the H2 heading of your page reinforces topical relevance without the over-optimization risk that comes from forcing keywords into the H1 more than once. Google reads the heading hierarchy — H1, H2, H3 — as structural signals about what a page covers. An H2 that includes the target keyword tells Google that keyword is central to the page's content, not just mentioned in passing.
The H2 is typically the first subheading the reader sees after the intro. On a page about Webflow image optimization, an H2 like "How to optimize images in Webflow" reinforces the topic and naturally includes the keyword in a context that makes sense to the reader.
How not to do it: stuffing the keyword in every H2 on the page. If every subheading is a variation of the same phrase, the page reads like it was written for an algorithm rather than a person. One natural keyword inclusion in an early H2 is enough. The rest of your H2s should describe the content of their sections clearly, with keywords appearing only when they fit naturally.
In Webflow, H2 headings are set directly in the Designer or, for CMS content, in the rich text fields of your collection items. If you're using a template where H2s are generated from collection fields, check that the fields contain descriptive content that naturally includes relevant terms rather than generic placeholders.
Check your heading structure periodically. A page that started with a clear H2 hierarchy can end up with orphaned headings if sections are added or removed without attention to the structure. Google's ability to understand your page's structure is only as good as the structure you give it. A clean H1 → H2 → H3 hierarchy with keyword-relevant headings is one of the simplest structural signals you can control.
Use the free keyword research tool to identify related phrases that naturally fit your H2 subheadings. Targeting a secondary keyword in an H2 is a low-effort way to pick up additional ranking opportunities on a page that's already performing well.
