 * I need to add the title
 *  Cruse
    Investments
 * to the top of my webpage in white letters. Does anybody know the code I can use
   for this? I want it to be on the right side of the logo and on the left of the“
   Call us…”

 * Hi,
 * I think it’s not a good idea to add text via css, please look for the options
   from admin side in the customize, or create a child theme and change the text
   in the header.

 * That seems pretty complicated. Isn’t there a text widget or something that I 
   can add as a layer on top of the template?

 * Most themes have a setting where you can enter a site title. Might be worth checking
   with your theme vendor’s support service.
 * It is a bad idea to add text via css, but if you must:
 *     ```
       h1 {width:500px}
       h1:after {content:"Cruse Investments"; margin-left:30px; color:#fff; font-size:40px; vertical-align:70%}
       ```
   
 * If your theme does not have a setting where you can enter custom css, you can
   use a plugin like this one:
