-
HTML headings are defined with the <h1> to <h6> tags.
<h1> defines the most important heading. <h6> defines the least important heading.
- Example
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h1>Heading 1</h1>
<h2>Heading 2</h2>
<h3>Heading 3</h3>
<h4>Heading 4</h4>
<h5>Heading 5</h5>
<h6>Heading 6</h6>
</body>
</html>
Note: Browsers automatically add some white space (a margin) before and after a heading.Use HTML headings for headings only. Don't use headings to make text BIG or bold.
-
Search engines use the headings to index the structure and content of your web pages.<h1> headings should be
used for main headings, followed by <h2> headings, then the less important <h3>, and so on.
-
Each HTML heading has a default size. However, you can specify the size for any heading with the style attribute, using the CSS font-size and
color property.
<h5 style="font-size:20px; color:blue">Heading 5 with css</h5>
Output:
Heading 5 with css
