Sorry if this has been discussed before and it may be a little of topic of this thread but I have always wondered why h1 would be used in the header of the page for a logo.
I have always thought the h1 element should be the main heading for the content eg. <h1>About Us</h1> <p>content...</p> This way the highest level heading is always unique to the section of the website you are visiting.
