Some common HTML tags include:

<body></body> Defines the body of an HTML document. All of the content that appears on your page goes between these two tags.
<h1></h1> . . . <h6></h6> Defines section headings. <h1> is the largest section heading and <h6> is the smallest section heading.
<p></p> Text between these tags will be displayed as a paragraph. Most browsers separate paragraphs with a blank line.
