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"...

Getting back from the InnerMastermind Event in Las Vegas, I was excited to see my second issue of the Net Effect waiting for me in the mail.

Now I know by many of the comments on my blog, on my YouTube channel and my email that the Net Effect has caused some, well, disappointment with some buyers.

So here I wanted to clear up a few things (especially since I got to speak about it with Brad Fallon at the InnerMastermind Event).

The Stomping the Search Engines 2 launch was a bit bigger than expected and because of it, some “balls” were dropped (specifically when it came to customer service).  Additionally, fulfillment ran into their own problems and between the two, some people may have found late deliveries and an unresponsive customer support center.

Now understand that Stompernet is a business and their goal is to keep their customers and clients happy (I know, as both a member, a subscriber and an affiliate).  Resolving these issues are a MAJOR priority…so much so that they actually CLOSED new membership to Stomping the Search Engines 2 and the Net Effect until these problems were resolved.

As of today, STSE2 and the Net Effect are not for sale, but it will be shortly once again.

(If you don’t have it, GET IT!…and you can be notified as soon as it goes online once again by going to…

http://www.matthewbredel.com/stomp2)

At this point, though, the dust is settling.  Products are being shipped.  Customer Service is responsive (and if not, send me a ticket at http://www.tru-support.com and I will help you out!).

Stompernet is too good to let things slide here and I expect nothing but smooth sailing (and a GREAT MONTHLY PRODUCT) from here.

About the second issue really quickly…

I like that this issue focuses a lot on Social Media.  (I’ve been working on my own Social Networking product and this confirms a lot of the stuff that I teach, which is great!).  But the structure of the magazine is a bit more “meaty” than the first issue and is aimed at both veterans and newbies alike.

The last page is titled “How to Turn this Issue Into a Gold Mine”.  The perfect summary for the magazine (And I have a good handful of action items from it that I KNOW will increase the profitability of my website today!).

cheers…matt
