Make sure that before you start styling anything that you do a normalization to the document. Each browser has their own preset margins, padding, etc. to an element.

If you want to do is yourself:

body { margin: 0 auto; top: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0; left: 0; }

or, if you would like to use one that is much more extensive: https://necolas.github.io/normalize.css/ its open source and it gets changes regularly! Good luck!
