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

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"...

Colette Marshall, recently appointed president of Worldwide Brands, can teach you a thing or two about how to sell more physical products online and how to make money selling through your dropship business.  Where some shy away from the products business in favour of information products,  the online dropshipping business is alive and quite profitable thanks to membership programs like Worldwide Brands and information provided by people like Colette Marshall who teaches entrepreneurs more than just the basics of profitable e-commerce.

Today on sites like eBay, you’ll find more deals from ‘made for eBay’  stores than the garage sale items eBay used to be famous for and furthermore, for just about anything you might want to buy online you’ll find an online store for it. If you’re delving into online money making opportunities, you’ll see that online stores are a popular choice because those who choose to dropship can make money from facilitating a sale without having to inventory, warehouse, collect the funds, etc. Despite a troubled economy, e-commerce is more popular than ever!

Colette Marshall helps others because her company pulls the best resources and the most useful information together to a central place for members, enabling them to cut through the middlemen and get straight to the best possible wholesale deals.

Getting the scoop on the best deals, on what to sell, and getting information first on the best techniques there are for selling products on sites like eBay, Amazon, and your own made-from-scratch store as well  will ensure that maximum margin can be earned.

Where many online entrepreneurs are sharing their margin with middlemen, memberships like Worldwide Brands can help you squeeze even more profit out of your online store as well as help you sell more of whatever it is you’re selling.
