Yesterday, we looked at the <p> or Paragraph tag. We looked at how this HTML element could be used to create paragraphs on Facebook Pages as well as web pages. We learned that there was a start <p> tag and a closing </p> tag. Today we want to look at the “Header” or “Title” tags.
Header tags are important to tell your reader what the page content is all about. By using header tags, you also tell web crawlers or spiders what the content on that page is about. This is a very important part of getting your page indexed in Google and other search engine results.
Header tags go from <h1> all the way to <h5>. <h1> being the biggest, while <h5> is the smallest in font size. The text inside the header tag will appear in bold font. The <h1> header tag should find its place at the top of the page. Things to keep in mind are as follows:
- Your keywords you want to turn in search engines for should be found in the header tag.
- The keywords should also be body in the body of the text as well.
- Make sure the the header text is written well so it appears interesting to readers
Let’s look at an example of how a header tag will look – the <h1> tag:
<h1>Your Title Text Will Go Here</h1>
Notice that there is a start header tag <h1> and a closing </h1> tag. The text is placed inside between the tags.
If I want to create sub headers, I can use anything from <h2> to <h5>; depending on the size of the font I want. Here is an example of a sub header tag:
<h3>Your Sub Header Text Goes Right Here</h3>
