    H1 tag is a header, it creates a larger text, the link you have there is a meta tag which is for search engines. its what they use to know what your site is about

    Hey Colin, long time no talk :)

    An h1 tag is an html tag that defines the header on the website and helps emphasize the meaning of your content.

    The H1 element is a heading, the topmost out of six you can use. In other words, there are six headings available in HTML. H1, H2, H3, H4, H5 and H6, with H1 having the most importance, and H6 having the least importance.

    H1 is used as the title of the Web page, with H2 elements (which should never be left alone, or "orphaned") providing the headings for major talking points about the page's content, with H3 through H6 supporting the H2 elements as needed.

    Headings in HTML are best compared to a newspaper article. Many people will use H1 for the site title, but an image is actually best used here for that purpose. By having an image for the site's title, you are free to use the H1 element for your page title (this element should never be used more than once), just like the title of a newspaper or magazine article. H2 elements would be used to mark up and identify the major sections of the newspaper article, with the others being used to identify headings of lesser importance.

    Now that's an explanation that should go directly onto wikipedia :D
    I already knew some of it, but it's nice to read it with all the details!

    Nah, I'll save it for Minimal Markup (once I finish building the site anyway). ;)
