Structural Tags
Most pages have these
Most HTML documents have the following structural tags inside the body tags.
<header>
The <header> tags contain information about the website as a whole. This is often the information at the top of the page that stays exactly the same as you go from page to page on a website. The logo, tagline, and navigation are usually found here.
<nav>
The <nav> tags hold main navigational items for the website. This is usually found inside the <header> tags, or directly underneath these tags. These are the links that take you to the main pages of the site.
<main>
The <main> tags hold the main information about the current page. This content is usually the information that changes from page to page.
<footer>
The <footer> tags contain information about the website as a whole. This is often the information at the bottom of the page that stays exactly the same as you go from page to page on a website. The copyright info, address, and sometimes contact information is usually found here.

<body>
<header>
