still not clear what h1 tag seo is

Someone on a call used h1 tag seo like it was obvious. Nothing changed on the site around the same time, as far as i can tell. What is it actually for? Cheers.

The H1 is the main heading on the page, the big title at the top. 'H1 SEO' just means making that heading say clearly what the page is about, ideally with the phrase people would search. Rules of thumb: one per page, different on every page, and it should match what the title tag promises. The common mess is themes that wrap the logo in an H1 so every page has the same one. Worth checking with view source.
