Explanation of Post Tags

In our posts, we like to include a lot of different HTML tags to make our posts look great. Here is an explanation of the ones we use the most and how to call them.

h2 Tag

The <h2> tag is the heading tag used to talk about the most important information

h3 Tag

The <h3> tag is used usually within the h2 tag to display lower leveled information.

h6 TAG

The <h6> tag is used to display the copyright information of any images used from other sites such as Flickr for example.

When you are quoting someone, it is usually acceptable to use the >blockquote< tag to wrap the quoted text in.
