TIP #1: <h1> headings should not contain other <h1> headings.
EXAMPLE CODE:
<h1>Sample Heading Text<h1>Subtext</h1></h1>
REMEDIATION:
Remove the nested headings, or replace them with SPAN elements.
<h1>Sample Heading Text<span>Subtext</span></h1>
====
TIP #2: Use HTML headings instead of applying CSS heading styles to non-headings.
EXAMPLE CODE:
<div style=”font-size:1.5em; color:#cc0000;”>Sample Heading Text</div>
REMEDIATION:
Change the element to an appropriate heading element (H1, H2, H3, etc) and apply CSS styles if necessary.
<h1 style=”color:#cc0000;”>Sample Heading Text</h1>

When you use generic text like “Click Here” or “Read More” as instructions in link text, it is confusing because it says nothing about the content that will appear once the link is clicked. Remember: link targets are read out loud by screen readers.
Adding captions to videos definitely adds a bit of time on to a project, and is so important for accessibility. But remember that captions can also help other folks who may not be deaf or hard of hearing.
