HTML Introduction
What is HTML & Why It Matters

What is HTML?

HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language. It is the standard language used to create and structure content on the web. Everything you see on a website — from headlines and images to links and forms — is built with HTML.

Why Learn HTML?

Whether you're building a blog, a business site, or a complex web app, HTML is your starting point. Without it, there is no web page — just a blank screen. Learning HTML empowers you to:

• Create structured and meaningful content for websites
• Control the layout and hierarchy of information
• Collaborate more effectively with designers and developers
• Customize existing templates or WordPress themes
