How to Center Text in HTML?

Last Updated : 23 Jul, 2025

To center text in HTML, we can use CSS text-align: center property. It aligns the text to center horizontally. The <center> tag was used in older versions to center the text horizontally, but it is depreciated in HTML 5.

The <center> tag is a block-level element that is used to center text horizontally within its container element.

<center>
    <h1>GeeksforGeeks</h1>
    <p>This text is centered using the &lt;center&gt; tag.</p>
</center>

Output

Note: The <center> tag is depricated from HTML 5, so we will use CSS text-align property to center the text.

The text-align property is the simplest way to horizontally center the text. It is suitable for both inline and block-level elements like paragraphs (<p>), headings (<h1> to <h6>), and divs (<div>).

<div style="text-align: center;">
    <h1>GeeksforGeeks</h1>
    <p>This text is centered using text-align.</p>
</div>

Output
