In order to set up your page for building, you will want to start with the following tags.
First, you want to let the computer know that you're writing an HTML document.
The most important lesson to learn in HTML is you need to close all of your tags,
so make sure you end your page with the closing tag.
The first
tag you should enter in is
<HTML>.
Your page will go here...
</HTML>
Is the closing tag.
If you want to include meta tags and other information that is not visible on your page, but
can be looked at by search engines, use these tags.
<head>
put your meta tags here
</head>
All the rest of your HTML should have these tags around it.
<body>
</body>
So, the basic layout of your page should be something like this.
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<META Name="description" Content="the coolest page in the world" >
<META Name="keyword" Content="fun, cool stuff, chat" >
</HEAD>
<BODY>
Hi!
This is my homepage. It is still under construction, so please be patient.
