In HTML inline styles, you could use: <div style="background-color: #FFC0CB;">This has a pink background</div>.

What colors go well with pink?

Pink pairs well with several colors depending on the look you're going for. For a soft, feminine palette, try pink with white, cream, or light gray. For contrast, pink works well with navy blue, charcoal, or forest green. For a vibrant look, combine pink with turquoise, yellow, or orange. Monochromatic schemes using different shades of pink also work well. The best complementary color to pink is generally a shade of green.

What is the difference between hot pink and deep pink?

Hot pink (#FF69B4) is a bright, vibrant pink that leans slightly more toward red than purple. Deep pink (#FF1493) is a much more intense and saturated pink that appears darker and more vivid. Deep pink contains less blue and more red than hot pink, making it appear more dramatic and bold. Hot pink is often used for playful, energetic designs, while deep pink is used when a stronger, more striking pink is needed.

Is pink a good color for website backgrounds?

Pink can work well as a website background color when used appropriately. Lighter pinks like #FADADD or #FFE4E1 can serve as subtle, neutral backgrounds that don't overwhelm content. For a bolder approach, deeper pinks can be used for specific sections or accent areas. When using pink as a background, ensure there's enough contrast with your text colors for readability. Pink backgrounds work particularly well for fashion, beauty, children's products, and creative industry websites.
