What This Article Covers
OTTO (our AI-powered optimization tool) sometimes modifies page headings to improve SEO performance. If OTTO has changed an H2 heading on your page and you want to restore the original version, our support team can process the rollback for you directly.
Why Headings Get Overridden
OTTO analyzes your pages and may suggest or deploy heading changes to better match search intent and improve ranking potential. While these changes are typically beneficial, you may want to revert them if they conflict with your brand voice, user experience, or page structure.
How to Request an H2 Heading Rollback
Rolling back an OTTO H2 heading deployment override requires assistance from our support team. To get this resolved as quickly as possible, please reach out with the following information ready:
- The URL of the page with the heading you want to revert
- The original heading text you want restored
- The heading that OTTO deployed (if known)
Once our team receives these details, they can process the rollback and restore your original H2 heading.
Best Practices for Managing Heading Changes
Review Before Deploying: If you have auto-deployment disabled, always review OTTO's suggested heading changes before approving them. This prevents unwanted overrides.
Monitor Your Deployments Regularly: Periodically check which changes OTTO has deployed across your site to stay informed about heading modifications.
Document Your Rollbacks: If you frequently need to revert certain types of changes, note which pages or heading styles conflict with your brand to inform future OTTO settings.
Test Impact: After rolling back a heading, monitor your page rankings for 1–2 weeks to ensure the original heading isn't negatively affecting performance.
Troubleshooting Common Issues
Not Sure if the Heading Was Deployed? Our support team can confirm whether a heading change has been deployed to your page and whether it is eligible for rollback.
Rollback Not Available? Some deployments may not be reversible if they have been superseded by a newer update or are part of an active configuration. Contact our support team to discuss your options and we will be happy to help.
