Hello,

HTML tags have some characteristics and explanations  those are below.

HTML tags are surrounded by the angle brackets. Ex. <… >.

Normally tags are in pairs. Ex <…>……. </…>.

In the pair first tag is called start tag and second one is end tag.

The closing tag is like opening tag but here use forward slash before the tag name.

Thanks

Hi Michele,
 
Tags in HTML are used to put around on some piece of content in your Web page.  Here’s a basic example of an HTML element:
 
<h1> This is the Header 1 </h1>
 
An element consists of a pair of tags and its content. The tag will tell the browser that the content of my page is “This is the Header 1” and it is a top level heading.  
 
A tag consists of a tag name and is surrounded by < and > characters. In my example, <h1> is an opening tag and should end with a closing tag </h1>.  You will know that it is a closing tag because it usually comes after the content and it has backslash “/” before it.  Note that ALL closing tag has “/” in them, this is to inform the browser where a particular content ends.  If a closing tag is missing the Web browser will display an error.
 
Here’s an example of an HTML document:
 
<html>
  <head>
     <title>Title of the document</title>
    </head>
 
  <body>
       The content of the document……
  </body>
 
</html>
 
All HTML document should start with an <html> tag.  This is the outermost container of the Web page. The browser will interpret it as an HTML program and will display your Web page.

Taylor
