How color only half website title

[shakabra]

I am trying to color half of the website title different from the other half. I am very new at php, but I can figure it out if pointed in the right direction.

So far I thought to split the title into two strings giving each a different class and then just style each class. I do not know how to do this. Any help would be appreciated. Is this the easiest/only way to go about this in get simple.
