Page layout is the part of graphic design that deals with the arrangement of visual elements on a page. Page layout is used to make the web pages look better. It establishes the overall appearance, relative importance, and relationships between the graphic elements to achieve a smooth flow of information and eye movement for maximum effectiveness or impact.
In this article, we will discuss the page layout structure of HTML:
- Header: The part of a front end that is used at the top of the page. <header> tag is used to add a header section in web pages.
- Navigation bar: The navigation bar is the same as the menu list. It is used to display the content information using hyperlinks.
- Index / Sidebar: It holds additional information or advertisements and is not always necessary to be added to the page.
- Content Section: The content section is the main part where content is displayed.
- Footer: The footer section contains the contact information and other query related to web pages. The footer section is always put on the bottom of the web pages. The <footer> tag is used to set the footer in web pages.
