An SEO idea that may be useful
 

I have come up with an idea to make forums more search engine friendly but I am afraid I like the know how to incorporate that in to a forum.

When a thread is created, a title for that thread is placed at the top of each forum, so for instance the title of the thread you will read above this text is, "An SEO idea that may be useful". The only thing that stands out in that title is that it is bold. Is there any way to make this part of the text a H1 tag?

Doing so in theory should increase a threads ranking in a search engine as the thing that google ranksmost, underneath the URL and Title tags is the H1 tags describing the main content.
