With HTML you can do many different things within your website or even your blog. You can put images on your website and movies and videos.
There is a lot you can do with HTML to make your website more attractive to visitors.
But now I must warn you with this. Although many have found really cool things they can do with their websites using HTML coding, that has made their sites too wild and hard to find.
Most people today will shy away from these fancy sites and instead be more willing to read a website that is simple and clean.
Keep this in mind while building your website, DO NOT get carried away with all the cool things you can do with HTML. Keep it simple and clean.
