To throw another question in here, should the page title therefore be
different to the main heading of the page? I thought the content in
the page title should be as specific as possible for SEO, including
the heirarchy?
So, for example
titleSite title - Section Title - Page title/title
And
For the title you should really switch it around so that it is more specific
to the page, and will be much better for SEO purposes.
titlePage title - Section Title - Site title/title
For the Logo h1 aspect, I would personally use the gilder/levin image
replacement technique, using within this

I concur.
Having it as a p is a much better way of dealing with it rather than
having it as an image or h1.
To me its less about SEO and much more about usability. People don't really
care about your company, they're simply after the major headlines. Having a

An h1 is definitely not for marking up the company logo. A logo in
a banner would go in a div, div id=logo. h1 is reserved for the
semantically correct information for the main heading. Alistapart
must have it wrong. Actually, looking through their code, they do

The H1 should be used for the most important heading, usually the name
of the page
I second that.
We used to have lots of logos in h1s too, and after a thorough SEO

The h1 now holds the page title.
