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"...

In the search for online jobs, there are so many different areas to consider. While many people seem to be having success with gigs in affiliate marketing, website development, and information products, sometimes it’s the easier jobs that seem most appealing.

For example, job listings for data entry, type at home and process at home jobs are numerous and make promises of big money for little work. However, digging a little deeper into the world of process at home jobs reveals plenty of scams and few actual success stories.

What?!? You mean I can’t really make $100 a day stuffing envelopes?  

The unfortunately reality is that many of these process at home opportunities originate with online scam artists who make their money by ripping off innocent people just searching for work. Much like the political world, things aren’t always as they appear! Flashy ads making claims of easy money, no experience required, can pull in even the most discerning individuals.

Still, finding legitimate work opportunities from home can be challenging, but it is not impossible. I’ve learned that research is truly key. A great first step when researching a new company is to go to the Better Business Bureau Online (www.bbbonline.org). There, you can find the dirt on a potential employer company. If there are numerous negative reports, you can know it is in your best interests to steer clear and search for another opportunity.

Keep in mind that even if the work seems simple, you must receive a fair payment to make it worth your time. Too many data entry and process at home workers find themselves putting in significant time and energy, yet struggle to even make back their initial investment or fees. By visiting online forums dedicated to work at home jobs, you can get information about a company you are considering and receive feedback from people who either have experience with the work or can share what they have heard about the company. Learning from others in the know is a great way to avoid scams and find legitimate opportunities.

Although it can take some time and research to determine which online opportunities are right for you, don’t give up on your dream to achieve success working from home on the Internet. Even if you have had a bad experience, you can now use that experience to know how to avoid the scams, conduct your research and make the best decisions when it comes to your online career.
