There are only a few interesting tags in HTML. They are easy to learn. Here are a few:

• p - paragraph of text
• h1 - top level heading
• h2 - second level heading
• h3 - third level heading (and so on all the way to h6)
• strong - highlighted text - generally bold
• em - emphasised text - generally italic

Here are a few newer tags that were added in HTML5

• article - an article
• aside - content related to an article
• nav - Page navigation

Remember you must remember to close any tag that you open or you will get surprising results.

<h1>Here is my top level heading</h1>
<p>And a nice paragraph to follow.</p>
