 * The directions on importing Google fonts seems very straight forward. However,
   they’re not working on my website. After choosing my font, I was given this code:
 *     ```
       <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Neucha' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
       <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Cardo' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
       ```
   
 * _[Please post code snippets between backticks or use the code button.]_
 * There are three locations (and three separate php files) where I’m going to be
   using these fonts. The first one I tested was my header.php file. My understanding
   is that those lines of code need to be inserted directly above the </head> tag,
   which I did. Then I added the fonts to the correct class … {font-family: ‘Neucha’,
   Georgia;}
 * I’ve double checked everything and definitely don’t have typos. Adding a Google
   Font plugin isn’t an option. I want to hand-code this directly into my files.
   Any suggestions? Some people say to add an import line of text somewhere near
   the top of the stylesheet, but where exactly? And why do some say to do that,
   while others say it’s not necessary?

 * (If you see an error message on the homepage, ignore it … I’ve left that for 
   help in a support forum. The header still shows up.)
 * Thank you.
