Head

The meta data of a webpage

The head element is used to specify metadata like title, description, keywords and author of a webpage. This metadata is used by search engines like Google to index websites. The content inside this tag is not rendered into the body of the webpage.

head_example.html
<head>
    <title>The HTML Book</title>
    <meta name="description" content="A quick and detailed start to HTML">
    <meta name="keywords" content="Learn, HTML, book">
    <meta name="author" content="Express Gradient">
</head>

head is the first element that will get interpreted by the browser. So, we can place any assets like CSS files to get loaded before the actual content is rendered.
