    It's fine, but use a CSS file to change the settings of the H1 tag rather than doing it the way you have suggested.

    eg

    <html>
    <head>
    <style>
    h1 { font-size: 13px; }
    </style>
    </head>
    <body>
    <h1>blah blah blah</h1>
    </body>
    </html>
    Code (markup):

    it will be better if you put it in an externall css file..but the method above is perfectly fine.

    Yes I did, but there's a whole learning curve there and I figured Mario could take it step by step.

    use external css file, it will reduce unnecessary code on the page hence will not dilute keyword density and also increase re-usability.
