I have the articles displayed in following way:

Home >> Category Name >> Article Name (in site-navigation I am using h1 tag for article name)

Article name is present in my Title, Description and Keywords as well. The title is also in <H1> tag.

Am I doing anything wrong by making my page like this?

I'm seeking some good suggestions from you all.

Thanks
KiShOrE

An H1 tag is used to list the main topic of a document. It's like a headline, and in most cases there should be one per page. H1 tags are used to show your document's structure, so using an H1 tag in the navigation is not a standard usage.

Hello, KiShOrE
Everything seems fine with your setup. Tedster's observation
is good: you should have only one <H1> tag per page, and in the body
of the page. It seems redundant to put literally the article title in
the META description and keywords--break the title in its words or
try some new twist.
All the best.

<h1> tag is huge for SEO. As they said, try to closely match your page <title> and your <h1> and then use <h2> for sub topics and <h3> for topics within sub topics. This will greatly improve your pages serps.
