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

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"...

What do I have in common with Lisa Suttora, Lynn Terry, Sydney Johnson, Deborah Carney, Rhea Perry and Rosalind Gardner? I’m a girl who gleefully makes her living online.

Some women who make money online start off in assistant or supportive roles, but many of them aren’t satisfied with that for long before they decide to try their hand at something of their own. Other women who work on the internet are successful business people or highly skilled technical people that partner with other talents to create products and services people want (or who learn how to do it all themselves. Women can be like that!).  The internet is filled with men and women who want to succeed and luckily, the internet is also filled with opportunities for those success hungry individuals.

Today’s blog post was inspired by FeedFront magazine, which recently featured a lot of success tips given by  women in affiliate marketing.

Internet Marketing: Increasingly Popular for Women

More women than ever are getting into internet marketing and it’s no wonder! There are some serious money making opportunities online and there are some big female audiences looking to buy online.  I started off in writing for the web about three years ago after starting to try to blog for some cash part-time. When I got past the first few scammy ads I found that there really were a lot of really viable opportunities for me.

I began to feed an insatiable appetite for information about how to make money with my computer from home. I met a lot of really interesting IM gurus and successful copywriters and because of my business background naturally gravitated to successful internet marketers who wanted to share information about how they made their living, I learned a lot. I also gravitated towards the work at home niche because I was living the journey of trying to make money on the internet.

Creating Multiple Streams of Online Income

I’m now a woman who dabbles in internet marketing who’s got several income streams happening.  It has been a great journey writing for and with successful internet marketers because I’ve learned a lot. As a writer, I have the writing skills that many marketers crave and as a specialist focused on this niche it really made sense for me to dabble in internet marketing myself with the knowledge I was gathering.

As I got into working online full time a few years ago I saw that mostly men were dominating the IM scene.  A few women were around but the scales were definitely tipped in the other direction.  Today, I’m seeing a lot of successful female entrepreneurs who want it all and a look at Feedfront’s cover truly illustrates that women in IM do mean business. They want to work without the binding chains of a cubicle, make their own schedules, and they want to work for themselves.  Sure, some of them are former CEOs and some others have started off as a virtual assistant or ghostwriter but eventually, many of the most passionate and motivated ones begin to venture out on their own with their newfound knowledge. Women are fast figuring out that anyone with determination has the ability and power to become a CEO when they create their own business. The ability to multitask and assimilate a lot of information as well as be extremely resourceful is inherently female,  so it’s a natural fit with a career that demands all of these things.

If you’re interested in learning about some successful women in internet marketing and seeing what opportunities can be available to you in the areas of dropshipping, affiliate marketing, auctions and other areas, TheWebReviewer.com has a lot of helpful information to assist you in your journey.

Cheers,

Dana
