HTML Tags are essential for your site\u2019s SEO. Using them correctly will have a positive impact on your website traffic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wrap Elementor Theme parts, such as the header, footer, menu, etc. with HTML tags <header>, <footer>, <nav>, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, if you are editing the Header, use the header HTML tag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Go to the settings for the template part you are working with, such as the header, by clicking the cog in the lower left of the editor panel. \"\"<\/li>
  2. Under General Settings<\/em>, click the HTML Tag<\/strong> dropdown.<\/li>
  3. Choose the \u201cheader<\/em>\u201d tag.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Here are the different types of HTML Tags you can select from:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    1. <div<\/em>> –  Defines a section in a document<\/li>
    2. <header<\/em>> – Defines a header for a document or section. This is useful when you are creating a header template using Elementor Pro<\/a>.<\/li>
    3. <footer<\/em>> – Defines a footer for a document or section<\/li>
    4. <article<\/em>> – Defines an article<\/li>
    5. <section<\/em>> – Defines a section in a document<\/li>
    6. <aside<\/em>> – Defines content aside from the page content<\/li>
    7. <nav<\/em>> – Defines navigation links<\/li><\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
