Thanks to them, browsers and indexing programs (such as Google) better understand the structure of a page. This in turn helps its display, positioning and improves the user experience. Examples of such tags are<code>:&lt;article&gt;<\/code>, <code>&lt;section&gt;<\/code> or <code>&lt;nav&gt;<\/code>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In comparison, non-semantic tags, such as <code>&lt;div&gt;<\/code> or <code>&lt;span&gt;<\/code>, have only an organizational function. They say nothing about the content stored in them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An example of semantic markup in HTML:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code>&lt;header&gt;\n  &lt;h1&gt;Hello on my website!&lt;\/h1&gt;\n&lt;\/header&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An example of a non-semantic tag:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code>&lt;div class=\"header\"&gt;\n  &lt;h1&gt;Hello on my website!&lt;\/h1&gt;\n&lt;\/div&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the first example, the browser knows that this element is a page header, which makes it easier to interpret.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New HTML5 semantic markup &#8211; an overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">HTML5 introduced a number of new tags that significantly ease the work of developers. Here are the most important of them:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code>&lt;article&gt;...&lt;article\/&gt;<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n                        <div class=\"contact-banner programming\" >\n                <div class=\"contact-banner__image\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/uniquedevs.com\/wp-content\/themes\/uniquedevs\/assets\/images\/programming.webp\" alt=\"Are you looking for support in IT projects?\">\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"contact-banner__image-mobile\">\n                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/uniquedevs.com\/wp-content\/themes\/uniquedevs\/assets\/images\/programming-mobile.webp\" alt=\"Are you looking for support in IT projects?\">\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"contact-banner__wprapper\">\n                                            <div class=\"contact-banner__wrapper-title\">\n                            Are you looking for support in IT projects?                        <\/div>\n                                                                                            <a href=\"https:\/\/uniquedevs.com\/en\/contact\/\" class=\"contact-banner__wrapper-btn\" >\n                                Contact us!                            <\/a>\n                                                            <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n            \n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Represents an independent block of content, such as a blog post, newspaper article or forum post. Example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code>&lt;article&gt;\n  &lt;h2&gt;How to become a programmer?&lt;\/h2&gt;\n  &lt;p&gt;Programming is one of the most in-demand skills on the market...&lt;\/p&gt;\n&lt;\/article&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code>&lt;section&gt;...&lt;\/section&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is used to group content with a common theme. It can contain headings, paragraphs, lists or other elements. Example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code>&lt;section&gt;\n  &lt;h1&gt;Services&lt;\/h1&gt;\n  &lt;p&gt;We offer a wide range of IT services, including:&lt;\/p&gt;\n  &lt;ul&gt;\n    &lt;li&gt;Website development&lt;\/li&gt;\n    &lt;li&gt;SEO optimisation&lt;\/li&gt;\n    &lt;li&gt;Technology consulting&lt;\/li&gt;\n  &lt;\/ul&gt;\n&lt;\/section&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code><code>&lt;nav&gt;<\/code>...<code>&lt;\/nav&gt;<\/code><\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It contains navigational elements, such as menus or links to key sections of the page. Example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code>&lt;nav&gt;\n  &lt;a href=\"\/about-us\"&gt;About us&lt;\/a&gt; |\n  &lt;a href=\"\/services\"&gt;Services&lt;\/a&gt; |\n  &lt;a href=\"\/contact\"&gt;Contact&lt;\/a&gt;\n&lt;\/nav&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code>&lt;aside&gt;...&lt;\/aside&gt;\n\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is used to place side content, such as additional information, ads or links. Example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code>&lt;aside&gt;\n  &lt;h3&gt;Worth reading&lt;\/h3&gt;\n  &lt;p&gt;See our article on the latest trends in technology.&lt;\/p&gt;\n&lt;\/aside&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code>&lt;footer&gt;...&lt;\/footer&gt;<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the place for the footer of a document or section, where information about the author, copyright or contact links are usually located. Example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code>&lt;footer&gt;\n  &lt;p&gt;&amp;copy; 2025 My Site. All rights reserved.&lt;\/p&gt;\n&lt;\/footer&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code>&lt;main&gt;...&lt;\/main&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The &lt;main&gt; tag in HTML is used to mark the main content of the document, which is unique to the page. It contains key information that directly answers the purpose of the page. It can occur only once in a document and should not contain elements such as headers, footers or forms. The<br>tag can include navigational links to subsections of the main content of the document that are not repeated on other pages. Example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code>&lt;!DOCTYPE html&gt;\n&lt;html lang=\"pl\"&gt;\n&lt;head&gt;\n  &lt;meta charset=\"UTF-8\"&gt;\n  &lt;meta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0\"&gt;\n  &lt;title&gt;Example of tag usage &amp;lt;main&amp;gt;&lt;\/title&gt;\n&lt;\/head&gt;\n&lt;body&gt;\n  &lt;main&gt;\n    &lt;section id=\"about-us\"&gt;\n      &lt;h2&gt;About us&lt;\/h2&gt;\n      &lt;p&gt;We are a company specializing in designing modern websites.&lt;\/p&gt;\n    &lt;\/section&gt;\n\n    &lt;section id=\"services\"&gt;\n      &lt;h2&gt;Our services&lt;\/h2&gt;\n      &lt;ul&gt;\n        &lt;li&gt;Website development&lt;\/li&gt;\n        &lt;li&gt;SEO optimisation&lt;\/li&gt;\n        &lt;li&gt;Technical audit&lt;\/li&gt;\n      &lt;\/ul&gt;\n    &lt;\/section&gt;\n\n    &lt;section id=\"contact\"&gt;\n      &lt;h2&gt;Contact&lt;\/h2&gt;\n      &lt;p&gt;Contact us at: &lt;a href=\"mailto:kontakt@example.com\"&gt;kontakt@example.com&lt;\/a&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;\n    &lt;\/section&gt;\n  &lt;\/main&gt;\n\n  &lt;footer&gt;\n    &lt;p&gt;&amp;copy; 2025 Moja Firma.

It is often used together with the <code>&lt;figcaption&gt;<\/code> tag, which provides a description for the <code>&lt;figure&gt;<\/code> content. This allows browsers and screen readers to better understand the connection between the graphic and its description. Example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code language-html\"><code>&lt;figure&gt;\n  &lt;img src=\"example.jpg\" alt=\"Example of graphics\"&gt;\n  &lt;figcaption&gt;Graphics descriptions: Example of tag usage &amp;lt;figure&amp;gt;.&lt;\/figcaption&gt;\n&lt;\/figure&gt;\n<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Below are all the semantic HTML tags that are responsible for correctly marking the semantic structure of the page:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/uniquedevs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-1024x540.png\" alt=\"lista semantycznych znacznik\u00f3w HTML \" class=\"wp-image-2032\" srcset=\"https:\/\/uniquedevs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-1024x540.png 1024w, https:\/\/uniquedevs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/uniquedevs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-768x405.png 768w, https:\/\/uniquedevs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image.png 1248w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.w3schools.com\/html\/html5_semantic_elements.asp\">https:\/\/www.w3schools.com\/html\/html5_semantic_elements.asp<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why does HTML semantics matter for SEO?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">HTML semantics are important for SEO (Search Engine Optimization) for several key reasons:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.&nbsp;<strong>Helps search engines understand the content of a page<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Semantic HTML elements, such as&nbsp;<code>&lt;header&gt;<\/code>,&nbsp;<code>&lt;footer&gt;<\/code>,&nbsp;<code>&lt;article&gt;<\/code>,&nbsp;<code>&lt;section&gt;<\/code>,&nbsp;<code>&lt;nav&gt;<\/code>, or&nbsp;<code>&lt;aside&gt;<\/code>, clearly indicate what function a piece of content serves. This allows search engines to better interpret the structure of the page and the context of the information contained therein, resulting in better matching of search results to user queries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2.&nbsp;<strong>Improves accessibility<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Semantic markup helps assistive technologies, such as screen readers, interpret the content of a page. This, in turn, supports a better user experience, which can affect engagement rates and indirectly improve SEO results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.&nbsp;<strong>Makes content easier to index<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Search engines use crawlers to index web pages. Semantic markup makes it easier for these crawlers to identify key elements of a page, such as headings<code>(&lt;h1&gt;<\/code>&nbsp;&#8211;&nbsp;<code>&lt;h6&gt;<\/code>), lists, tables or images with relevant descriptions (<code>alt<\/code>). This allows content to be more accurately understood and cataloged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4.&nbsp;<strong>Emphasizes the importance of the content<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The use of appropriate tags, such as&nbsp;<code>&lt;h1&gt;<\/code>&nbsp;for the main heading,&nbsp;<code>&lt;strong&gt;<\/code>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<code>&lt;em&gt;<\/code>&nbsp;to highlight text, or&nbsp;<code>&lt;article&gt;<\/code>&nbsp;for articles, indicates to search engines which elements are crucial to a document. These elements can be considered more relevant and ranked higher in search results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5.<strong>Creates better results in snippets<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">HTML semantics can affect how snippets of content (snippets) are displayed in search results. For example, the correct use of tables or lists can be included in so-called \u201cfeatured snippets,\u201d which are particularly prominent in the SERP (Search Engine Results Page).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical tips and best practices<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1 Use semantic markup whenever possible. You will increase the clarity of your code.<br>2.Avoid overuse of non-semantic tags, such as&nbsp;<code>&lt;div&gt;<\/code>&nbsp;or&nbsp;<code>&lt;span&gt;<\/code>.<br>3.Ensure proper formatting of your content, such as using H1-H5 headings.<br>4.Remember SEO &#8211; use&nbsp;<code>&lt;title&gt;<\/code>,&nbsp;<code>&lt;meta&gt;<\/code>,&nbsp;<code>&lt;h1&gt;<\/code>&nbsp;tags and&nbsp;<code>alt<\/code>&nbsp;attributes correctly .<br>5.Don&#8217;t use semantic HTML tags for text styling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Questions asked by users:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which version of html introduced semantic markup?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>HTML5<\/strong> introduced a number of semantic tags. They are designed to better describe the structure and meaning of content on a website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the purpose of semantic html tags?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The purpose of semantic HTML tags is to give the structure of a page a meaning that makes it easier for search engines, assistive technologies and users to understand. Elements such as <code>&lt;header&gt;<\/code>, <code>&lt;article&gt;<\/code>, <code>&lt;section&gt;<\/code> or <code>&lt;footer&gt;<\/code> clarify the function of content, supporting SEO, improving accessibility and organization of information, and providing a better user experience (UX).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How many semantic tags in html?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are more than 100 tags in html, while strictly semantic tags are fewer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HTML, or HyperText Markup Language, is the basic language that builds the structure of websites.
