HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language. This is the language
people use to create web pages. You don't have to be a programmer to understand HTML. It's
a very easy tool. It allows you to make your Ad more attractive, by bolding or italicizing
words or by adding color.
Here are some common HTML tags you can use to make your Ad more
attractive. Note that a tag always begins with '<'.
Create titles by using any of the six
HTML tags.
