Every HTML document should consist of a set of four tags which are known as the basic HTML tags or fundamental HTML tags. The basic tags along with their descriptions are given below:
<html> – The root tag for every HTML document
<head> – Specifies the head section in a web document which usually contains meta data
<body> – Specifies the body section which contains the actual content of a web document
<title> – Specifies the title of the web document to be displayed on the browser’s title bar
Example on Basic HTML Tags
In general, every web document contains a head section and a body section which will be enclosed in between <html> tags. Certain tags in HTML can be nested inside other tags. General structure of a web document is shown below:
<html>
<head>
<title>Title of the web page</title>
</head>
<body>
Web page content here...
</body>
</html>
Although indentation is not necessary, it makes your HTML code more readable.
