oh, so now I'm gonna worry about too many H3s just because a random someone had discovered that it works for him, for a particular keyword! What is going to be next week: words with too many characters that bother people who hate reading? Yeah, fuck that! I write however the fuck I want...

He is not just a random someone, He is the CEO of a content marketing agency specializing in SEO.

I've never heard of him so he's a random someone. Case closed!
Google will 100% scrape your entire article, means every word is metadata and useful.
I don't do SEO lately but I wouldn't even use H3 at all, but only one H2 in the entire article including my main keyword + how to or some kind of tail, without worrying about words positions at all.
Why am saying this? because I do believe it's the best logic and regardless of mass updates, you are reducing your damage to the minimum.

before Dec 2020 update, having your keywords in 2 H1 tags did help. but not after Dec update. there might be some truth in that twitter post. then again, there might not. check out best running shoes keyword, and see the number one ranked site: runnersworld.com/gear/a19663621/best-running-shoes/. shit load of H3 tags!

I am not agree with his post completely. H3 mainly used for sub topics. That is also one of the premium header tag in SEO.
We can use more semantic keywords there. So it helps ranking for more long tail keywords.

This random CEO is just trying to get attention, which he already seems to be getting too much of undeservingly.
When it comes to SEO, it's always good to remember logic. It helps a lot to also think with your own brain.
Now, if you are a writer and you write long-form, isn't it natural to have subheaders? So why in the world would this be bad for ranking?
This is one of the reasons I don't look at Twitter much, it's so easy to publish bullsh*t opinions without consequences.

Is this true?
It's totally without any evidence to support it!
He runs a 110 writer content agency, but he has done fuck all split testing, fuck all in the way of a case study.
It's just a way to get his name out there and look for clients <probably >.

of course it is. Write 10k long posts without segmenting the content into sub-headings with bullet points and H3 tags and see what that does for "great user experience", something that google is head over heels in love with. And this random dude tells me that H3 don't help with rankings. I ain't ranking shit anywhere, optimized or not, so all things being equal I prefer to make my sites enjoyable for the topics that I care about
Fully agreed.
