Margins
The margin-left, margin-right, and margin-top attributes
set the side margins and top-margin for a tag. You can specify the margins in pt, in, cm,
or px:
BODY {margin-left: 100px;
margin-right: 100px;
margin-top: 50px}
Or you can combine them into one attribute called margin.
Thus, instead of the above, you can use:
P {margin: 100px 100px 50px}
The order is top, right, and left. If you specify a single
value, it will be applied to all three margins.

right-justify your HTML elements:

{text-align: right}

Indentation
You can also set indentation pt, in, cm, or px:
H2 {text-indent: 20px}
This causes your <H2>’s to be indented 20 pixels.
