Learn just 20 tags to get started in HTML

You may wonder why you should learn HTML. Fact is you can't seriously work as a web designer without it. There are about 140 HTML tags in total but I think that 20 make a great starting point. Many projects will be possible with these 20 and others tags can be picked up as and when needed.

Document Description

  1. <html>
  2. <head>
  3. <title>
  4. <body>
  5. <meta>

Block Elements

  1. <p>
  2. <br>
  3. <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6>
  4. <ul>
  5. <li>
  6. <div>
  7. <header>
  8. <main>
  9. <footer>

Adding Content

  1. <a>
  2. <img>
  3. <strong> / <em>
  4. <span>

Adding Styles

  1. <style>
  2. <link>

Okay so I grouped <h1> through <h6> and put <strong> and <em> together to keep the list under 20 but they can't be hard to learn once you understand how one works.
