      You use them for different levels of headings in standard HTML.

   I use them, not sure if it has helped though, supposed to surround the title in them as well. But never tried that either.

      You could altert eh size of the h1 tags with css, my h2 tags are larger than my h1 ones

      sounds like a personal problem... sorry I am that bored today
      
      now when your site gets spidered does it go through the hierarchy of the tags or does it not matter? the only h1 tag I would have would be the blog title and I don't have it setup like that anymore... so would a search engine give more relevance to a h2 or h3 tag?

   Kevin, I don't use them on my blogs, but I've definitely seen them make an SEO difference on standard web pages.

      I have seen them mentioned. I am just trying to get a little better with SEO and my blog. I feel like it is something I need to pay a little more attention to.

   I've done extensive experiments with different h1/h2/h3 tags and titles and descriptions on my blog and it does work. If anyone is interested, you can read my results using Serendipity although any blog engine should benefit from the changes;
