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"...

Coach Deb and I sit down to discuss the next revolution of her original Blogi360 system, called QuanSite. Is this Wordpress-like content management system the solution to your website development and marketing needs? We discuss this, the Secret Society of Quan, and a few laughs…

At Monday’s mastermind meeting (held at the secret headquarters of Dr. Mike Woo Ming), Deb Micek (known as “Coach Deb” or @CoachDeb on Twitter) and I sat down and tried to hold our composure while talking about the launch of QuanSite, her upgraded and renamed version of the ever-popular Blogi360 website system.

Blogi360 was a leader in online marketing software, website building and new media.

QuanSite is the next Generation of Blogi360!

The video goes into the details of what QuanSite is and how it can help you build, or even re-invent your current websites and blogs.

This more more than just a blogging system (like Wordpress).  The is the complete, installed solution for website development & marketing.

No technical experience required.

The QuanSite system goes on-sale October 13 for a limited release.  Right now, get on her list for up-to-date news and exclusive webinars to grow (or even start) your online business.

I’m planning on moving some of my own Wordpress blogs onto QuanSite.  The build-in tools and plug-ins are more powerful than anything on the market.  And remember, Coach Deb is the queen of social media (she also created Tribal Seduction).  Many of her own personal strategies are integrated within QuanSite.

If creating or even managing your websites is becoming a chore or wasting your time, you must at least check this out!

  1. I looked at Quansite but I’m skeptical. They charge $1200 a year for their cheapest product - not a small amount of money - and they offer services costing hundreds of dollars to set up and configure the website.

    Well, much of their marketing material is all about how easy it is to setup and use the website. That’s why you’re paying $1200 a year, because it is powerful yet point and click simple to set up and administer. So why do they have to offer so many “Ambassador” services costing hundreds of dollars to set up and configure the website?

    Something doesn’t add up, and the website does not appear to be as easy to set up and configure as they make it sound in the marketing literature. My guess is most people will need to spend $1200 a year plus several hundred dollars more to get help with setting the thing up.

  2. Hey Dan,

    I think Deb has the pricing right for this…and let me explain. The QuanSite product is really targeted towards the person who really doesn’t know how to set up a website. There are definitely cheaper methods (like getting your own hosting and installing a Wordpress blog), but many people don’t have the time, patience, or expertise to do this. Also, if you split the cost up across the 4 sites you get (at least for the starter pack), you are roughly talking about $25/site…that is the same for other fully integrated content management systems (like SiteBuildIt, for example). And remember that all of the plug-ins are installed for you, plus many added features like video file conversions and those social media tools that bookmark in a collective. I spend about $200/mo just on bookmarking and social media syndication tools and services on my own stuff. For the hobbiest, this may be a bit of an investment, but for your business (whether it is currently offline wanting to go online or you are looking to develop your first online one), this should be a rather justifiable business expense. Just my opinion!

  3. Most people make mistakes when it comes to using social bookmarking. If you are using a automated social bookmarking software, then it’s easier to avoid these mistakes. Utilizing a social bookmarking software will be very efficient on acquiring traffic and backlinks.|social bookmarking isn’t simply a matter of generating links with the top bookmarking sites, you’re able to do much more to generate traffic, leads and profits.

  4. Reading your site and I like your writing style, bookmarkes and will come back when I am not at work

  5. obviously like your website however you have to take a look at the spelling on quite a few of your posts. A number of them are rife with spelling problems and I to find it very bothersome to tell the truth then again I will certainly come back again.
