Headings are useful navigation tools for long documents. Using headings styles in Word and other rich text editing programs helps create accessible files and accessible PDFs. On websites, in addition to being used to help users of assisstive technology navigate around a webpage, they provide all users a means of structure to web content. This makes it far more easy to scan pages for key points (and good headings may contribute towards search engine rankings).
