A useful SEO review distinguishes a direct requirement, a contextual factor and an unsupported promise. Be cautious when a checklist says something always or never affects rankings.
Review the claim
A domain’s age does not buy a permanent position, and a dedicated IP is not a general ranking purchase. But hosting availability and implementation can matter to access. Separate the commercial label from the actual technical condition.
Keep structure useful
Headings help organise a page and communicate its subject. Do not dismiss them as meaningless or treat one exact heading pattern as a ranking certificate. Use a logical structure people can scan.
Ask for evidence
Compare the claim with current primary guidance and the observed website problem. A tool score or a confident anecdote does not establish a universal rule. Choose an improvement because its purpose and verification are clear.
