You can also make a button bigger by adding padding. Padding can be added to each side independently. Sometimes padding is added to a button to make it visually closer to the size of other buttons next to it. Other times it is added to emphasize the button.

A large button with lots of padding

Sometimes you may need a button to span the width of its container. For this, you can use block level buttons.
