Is either:

<a href='#'><h1>text here</h1></a>

or

<h1><a href='#'>text here</a></h1>

‘correct’. Is there any benefit of using the first one, it seems more logical to me. Perhaps from an SEO point?

  1. <h1><a href='#'>text here</a></h1>

    is correct, as HTML does not allow a block element (<h1>) within an inline element (<a>) (src). your first example will fail validation.

    Generally, block-level elements may contain inline elements and other block-level elements. Generally, inline elements may contain only data and other inline elements. Inherent in this structural distinction is the idea that block elements create ‘larger’ structures than inline elements.
