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

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"...

Have you been searching for that one product that is going to help boost your business in 2009? Many people are saying Stompernet’s Formula 5 is the one to consider. Online reviews abound and what people are saying is good for Paul Lemberg’s latest product.Formula 5 is being touted to be the ultimate business development guide that has the potential to double your business profits. Are you skeptical? I know it is easy to question lofty such statements with the ring of “double your money,” however, Lemberg has a proven track record doing what he says he does, which is what he says you can do with his program.

With big name clients like Adobe and Sysco, Lemberg had developed plans to help these companies increase their profits by hundreds of millions of dollars. You can’t question those numbers! What you can ask is ‘how can this work for me?’

Formula 5 is made up of a series of instructional videos-directly from Lemberg-who guides you through the process of boosting your business. While there are several videos in the Formula 5 series, many reviewers are claiming that you can create your action plan and start making changes after watching only a few of the videos.

These are not videos based on theories and ideas, but rather on proven techniques, actions plans and implementation tactics to get you moving forward fast. Of course, it helps that Lemberg uses an easy-to-understand language and tone that keeps you interested in what he is going to say next. This is a videos series in which you learn the steps you need to take-one, two, three. It doesn’t get much more point-blank and direct than this!

The word on the street is that while Formula 5 is great for people who have started a business and are at least making some money doing it, it is not really a product for newbies who have not at least conceptualized a business or had a little income. There are plenty of products out there that can help you come up with business ideas. Formula 5 is the system to take your existing business and make it as profitable as it can be.

Whether your business goals include more steady part-time income, a business that can help you leave your office job or a way to get you into your dream house, Stompernet’s Formula 5 is a tool that can help you to work toward your ultimate online business goals.
