Changing the Font & Style of Your H1 Tags

QUESTION: (Rhonda) I am having problems changing the font size of my H1text. Is this very important? If so, how do I go about changing it?

Changing the text and/or style of an H1 tag is simple in CSS.  It does not affect anything other than how the visitor sees it though (i.e., if you use a large font, it means nothing more than a smaller font, in SEO terms or how Google sees it).

You can change the H1 tag locally or in the CSS definition file.

If you want to change all of the H1 tag settings in your entire website, you would do this in the CSS file:

h1 {
font-size: 24px;
}

You would use the h1 tag as you normally would:
<h1>This is my H1 tag</h1>

You can define a class in the CSS file which allows you to define your new style whenever you wish anywhere on the site:

.h1style {
font-size: 24px;
}

You would add this class to your h1 tag, when you wish it:

<h1 class=”h1style”>This is my H1 Tag</h1>

* Remember to add the “.” when defining it in the CSS to classify it as a class.

Finally, you can do it locally using a style attribute (without the CSS file):

<h1 style=”font-size:24px;”>This is my H1 Tag</h1>

All of the above do the exact same thing.  Their use is based on how often you use the style and how you want it defined (whether globally or locally).

Also, remember you can add other styles to the same definition (like color):

<h1 style=”font-size:24px; color:red;”>This is my H1 Tag that is Red and 24px high</h1>

I find that being able to change the styles of my text for header and other standard tags to be quite invaluable!  Knowing a little bit of CSS can go a long way.  Give this a try!

The easiest thing to try first is the local definition using the style attribute. If this is working for you, consider creating or editing your own CSS file!

Good luck!  cheers…matt

Who is Behind Marketing Mind?

Matthew Bredel begin_of_the_skype_highlighting     end_of_the_skype_highlightingMy name is Matthew Bredel and as of March, 2007, I am a full-time, work-at-home internet marketer. For close to 10 years, I worked for a defense company which was an OK job, but I was so uninspired in life and frankly, I needed some more money. That is when I first discovered internet marketing! Now I admit that I didn't start making thousands in my first couple of months (in fact, I lost my shirt!), but I finally saw the "internet light"...

Using Tweetdeck to Communicate on Facebook

Today marks a new era in the world of social media management. Tweetdeck’s newest version (v0.30.5) now allows to 2-way communication. You can now respond to your friend’s comments, write on their walls, even send them private messages. I know this will change and improve the way I use Facebook dramatically. How about you?

It’s here!  Oh my gosh.  I’ve been waiting for this since Tweetdesk (or any tool) first came out.

Today is the new release of Tweetdeck (version v0.30.5) and finally, some two-way communication between Tweekdeck and Facebook is finally here!

A few months ago, they added the Facebook reporting, but there was no action to actually respond to any of the posts were making on Facebook (other than re-tweeting it or emailing it).

That has all changed today!

This is going to change the way Facebook is used, too.

This is going to make it almost a “pseudo-Twitter”.

My most frustrating complaint about Facebook is that I have had to log-in and hold my conversations via their website.  Between leaving up a window for that and using Twitter (which I love), it was too much to manage.

Now both Facebook and Twitter are wrapped into one!

By moving your mouse over the Facebook profile, many more features now appear!

td2

  • You can comment directly on the current post.
  • You can write directly on their wall.
  • You can give the post a “thumbs up”.

td3

  • You can send them a direct private message.
  • You can even translate the message!

Remember that social marketing and using social media is all about the 2-way communication.  Until now, Facebook on Tweetdesk has been a one-way street and required you to log into your Facebook account to respond.

By incorporating the 2-way communication path of Facebook into Tweetdeck, I know my social interacting on Facebook will increase 10-fold, while using the strategies and techniques I already use to build effective relationships using Twitter.

Upgrade or download the lastest Tweetdeck today!  It is a must!

cheers…matt

P.S.  Remember that Tweetdeck is a free utility.  You should at least try it out and see if you like it!

  1. Gotta be the dumbest thing I have seen facebook allow yet. Don’t know how much of a choice they had in the matter, seeing how open the API is already, but fb makes 100% of their revenue from advertising.

    They already have an absurdly low CTR, because their core market seems a little advertising averse, and now people have a completely functional way to access all of their favorite facebook content and features without having to actually go to facebook!

    Brilliant! Unless of course, facebook actually wants to make money and stay in business…

  2. Yo Steve!

    You are totally right about that! Trying to compete with a non-income producing company (like Twitter) doesn’t seem like the best gameplan from a financial stand-point.

    Is it just me, or is some social bubble going to have to explode soon? It just seems like there is a lot of social freedom in the world of social media yet no revenue.

    I’ll at least take advantage of this while it is available.

    (This new feature is so cool, tho…isn’t it?)

    cheers…matt

  4. I’m impressed, I must say. Actually hardly ever do I encounter a blog that’s each educative and entertaining, and let me inform you, you have got hit the nail on the head. Your thought is outstanding; the difficulty is one thing that not sufficient persons are talking intelligently about. I’m very completely satisfied that I stumbled throughout this in my seek for something regarding this.
