How To Create a Glowing Text

Use the text-shadow property to create the neon light effect, and then use animation together with keyframes to add the repeatedly glowing effect:

Example

.glow {
font-size: 80px;
color: #fff;
text-align: center;
-webkit-animation: glow 1s ease-in-out infinite alternate;
-moz-animation: glow 1s ease-in-out infinite alternate;
animation: glow 1s ease-in-out infinite alternate;
}

@-webkit-keyframes glow {
from {
text-shadow: 0 0 10px #fff, 0 0 20px #fff, 0 0 30px #e60073, 0 0 40px #e60073, 0 0 50px #e60073, 0 0 60px #e60073, 0 0 70px #e60073;
}
to {
text-shadow: 0 0 20px #fff, 0 0 30px #ff4da6, 0 0 40px #ff4da6, 0 0 50px #ff4da6, 0 0 60px #ff4da6, 0 0 70px #ff4da6, 0 0 80px #ff4da6;
}
}
