How Websites Work

Websites are everywhere these days. They provide information and interact with users through different platforms, such as computers, tablets, and smartphones. A website is a network of linked web pages that users access through their web browsers. A user can access a website only when he or she has a web browser to process the code used to create the website’s content.

A website is made up of HTML code, which stands for Hypertext Markup Language. HTML is the main language used to create websites.
