Since <aside> and <footer> are not part of the page content, is it ok to start them with h3?

Joseph,
There should only be one H1 on a page and should be present after your site header.
As far as H2 onward, you use those as your page content requires. For example,
H2 Computer parts
H3 Hard Drives
H3 SSD Drives
H3 RAM
H2 Computer Accessories
H3 Keyboards
H4 Standard Keyboards
H4 Ergonomic Keyboards
H4 Bluetooth Keyboards
H2 Servers
H2 Networking
H2 Phones
You get the idea.
I believe Aside would work just find for your side panels. They complement the header and footer.

Am I correct that best practice is to use h1-h6 tags to represent rank of content, and separate that from styling of the text? So you generally do not use heading tags to change how text looks on the page.
Also, should sidebars and all other left and right non-navigation content be in <aside>? What level heading? Is it ok to use h3 as first header in <aside> and <footer>?
