I’ve read a few posts about how to justify text, add tables etc. on Steemit but somehow their advice worked for others but not for me. How weird. For example...I read a post on how to justify text, followed it and it worked perfectly...except for the fact that my text was justified but now my paragraphs were pushed against each other. I wanted a gap between my paragraphs but this method simply didn’t allow it. Thus I decided to write a post about how I style my posts...perhaps it’s not technically correct and it involves more typing but the end result works for me.

I use some HTML code that I find on w3schools as well as some code from the Markdown Styling Guide. I basically use a mix of the two.

So for each individual paragraph I do the following:

The stars will make the heading bold and the center-tags will obviously center it on the page. If for some reason the stars doesn't work I'll use b-tags to make the text bold. Or one can use heading tags instead. The p-tags will allow me to have gaps between my paragraphs. And the div class with text-justify will justify the text.

To add a link I'll use an a href-tag:

To insert a table I’ll do the following:


Well, up to this point in time this is the only code I have used in my posts. Feel free to look around w3schools for more tips/help.
