Ok, so Ive found out that for good SEO you should change your blog template to allow your post titles to be H1, and make your main blog title H2. Something I read said go into the template Header(header.php) and change it to H2, then go to the posts.php and change the post titles to H1. With that said I went into the header.php and found this

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title><?php wp_title("-", TRUE, "right"); ?><?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php bloginfo('html_type'); ?>; charset=<?php bloginfo('charset'); ?>" />
<meta name="generator" content="WordPress <?php bloginfo('version'); ?>" /> 
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo

Looks to me it doesnt have any H tags on the title at all, do I just need to add H2 tags to the title portion here??
Also when I go to Main Index Page(index.php) I found

<h2 class="postTitle">
<a href="<?php the_permalink();?>" title="<?php the_title();?>"><?php the_title();?></a>
</h2>

I assume this is where I change the post titles to an H1 from the H2 they are default?? It said to change post titles in the post.php file, but I cant find that file, only this index.php i pasted above,,,is this what I change for posts???

post.php may also be called single.php

Also the Page Template(page.php) also has
<h2 class="postTitle">
<a href="<?php the_permalink();?>" title="<?php the_title();?>"><?php the_title();?></a>
</h2>

Do I need to change this one as well?? Or better yet anyone know for sure which ones I need to change LOL :) Thanks guys..

Edit template in the admin.

Go to Appearance, then editor,Choose the file. You should never edit core files unless you REALLY know what your doing.

Ive got this far, now I just need to make sure I change the right ones!

So to do this right should I just change the following

header.php-Change Title to H2

And change these 3 to show post title to H1.
index.php
page.php
single.php

Is this all i need to change??

Though that article might be a bit advanced for what you want to do, it's important to note that Wordpress can have few or many template files that control the content of each section.

The files you will probably want to change, if they exist in your template, are index.php, single.php, page.php, archive.php / archives.php, category.php, author.php, and search.php.

Remember, your theme may not have all of these files, but each controls a particular section of your Wordpress blog and each lists a post or posts with its respective title.

Thanks that actually helped a lot! I changed the index.php, single.php, page.php, archives.php, and the search.php. My template has no category or author. So now my question is since I changed all those Post titles from H2 to H1, do I need to change the main blog Title to H2 in the header.php?? If you look at my first post you will see where I posted the header.php file and it has no H heading tag at all, do I even need to mess with it???
