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"...

I’ve been staying away from big product launches lately, primarily due to some of the deceit and dog-eat-dog marketing required to even earn a commission. But no matter what the competition or the marketing tactics involved, Product Launch Formula is still worth my time to tell you about.

plf_backLet’s first set the record straight here (and you probably already know this!).

Yes, I am an affiliate marketer in the home business space. With websites like TheWebReviewer.com and TruGuru.com, I have created a sizable “email list”.

A good portion of my personal income comes from the support of people like you who intentionally (or non-intentionally) buy products through my links.

Again, I can’t thank you enough! It allows me to create the videos, interviews, webinars and reviews that you have grown to enjoy and that has taught many people to become online entrepreneurs of their own.

But, I’ve also been very selective the products that I review and promote over the years.

I have a few rules:

  1. I must personally know the person that I am promoting (this way, if anything goes wrong on your purchase, I have an internal contact to harass on your behalf).
  2. The product MUST be good. In most cases, I am a current member or it is a product that I have used first hand in the past. But some “newer” products, I might rely on past experience and previews of the product that is being promoted.
  3. (This is a new one and the reason for this email…) I am no longer jumping on the “guru” bandwagon.

If you have been researching this industry for any time now, you know what I mean!

That “big boys club” of marketers…Filsaime, Wellman, Kern, Jenkins, Koenigs, Stomper, Deiss, Brunson, Carlton, Reese, etc.

And it is not that I dislike these guys or their products (in most cases). In fact, I know some of these guys and have successfully marketed (and bought) their stuff in the past.

But this industry is changing and every big launch from one of these guys results in this crazy bonus-fest, a whole lot of “cookie” stealing (and a few other things I won’t get into here!).

I’m kind of fed up with it, too! (Earlier in the year, I promoted List Control and I cannot begin to tell you the crazy things people were doing to steal a sale…and it is not Kern’s fault, either…I like his stuff!)

Plus, there are plenty of other killer products out there that are really good and don’t have the major hype around them (and those are the products I will find for you!).

Saying that, I am totally going to break Rule #3 or the next few weeks.

Here’s what’s going on…Jeff Walker is releasing his new version of Product Launch Formula 3 in about a week. Yes, I consider Jeff to be part of this “big boys club”, too.

But PLF has always have a soft-spot for me, too.

It is one of the first “big products” I ever purchased online (and I learned TONS from it, too).

By version 2.0, I was an accomplished affiliate marketer and very successfully marketed it via email and website traffic. It created a name for me in the industry and was a major stepping stone in online career path.

As much as I like Jeff, his brother Jon, who runs much of the promotion, has always been really good to me and has always provided the support I asked.

So here’s the deal…I will be sending out Jeff’s pre-launch videos over the next week or so (as they are released). I think I owe it to you because they are free and worth watching.

When the cart opens on June 22, I will also let you know and send my affiliate link with it. I will be offering a PLF bonus (something that is better than anything I have ever offered before!).

I think PLF IS worth it’s price and the pre-launch videos ARE worth watching.

The first video is now available here:

Another one is coming on Tuesday and Thursday. I’ll keep ya posted.

…it’s just a simple, free optin!

cheers…matt
